Sustainability starts with the choice of materials

Everyone wants to be sustainable these days. But what does that actually mean in practice? Is it enough to make environmentally conscious choices at the end of a project? We don't think so.

True sustainability starts at the bottom — with the choice of materials.

Material determines the impact

Whether you are designing a garden, cladding a facade or finishing a wall: the raw material you choose determines the lifespan, maintenance and ecological footprint of the end result. Choosing wood means charm, but also annual maintenance, discolouration and ultimately replacement. Choosing plastic means little maintenance, but often a less natural appearance.

With WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) we offer the best of both worlds: the natural look of wood and the sustainable performance of composite. Made from recycled wood fibres and plastic, so less felling of trees and less waste.

Long lasting = truly sustainable

Sustainability is not just about origin, but also about lifespan. Our WPC products last for decades, without rotting, cracking or splintering. That means: less replacement, less transport, less waste. And therefore: more peace of mind, more return and more future-proofing.

Low maintenance is also environmentally friendly

What many people forget: painting, staining or replacing every year requires raw materials, labour and energy. Low-maintenance construction is therefore also sustainable construction. With WPC you have less hassle, less costs and less burden on the environment.

A smart choice is a green choice

Sustainability is not a label. It is a way of thinking. And that starts with the choice of materials. Do you want to build with respect for the future? Then it starts with what you choose in the basics.
