A Comprehensive Guide to Wood-Plastic Cleaning and Maintenance: Keep Eco-friendly Spaces as Good as New for a Long Time and Easily Create Your Ideal Home!

2025-03-03
Wood-plastic Composite (WPC) is an innovative material that combines natural Wood fibers with thermoplastic plastics, featuring both the warm texture of wood and the durability of Plastic. With the enhancement of environmental awareness, wood-plastic composites are widely used in outdoor flooring, courtyard fences, interior decoration and other fields. However, proper cleaning and maintenance are the keys to maintaining its performance and appearance. This article will provide you with a complete guide from basic cleaning to deep maintenance, keeping your wood-plastic space looking as good as new for a long time.

I. Daily Cleaning: Three simple steps for easy maintenance

Remove surface debris

Use a soft-bristled broom or vacuum cleaner to regularly clean up dust, fallen leaves, etc., and avoid scratching with hard objects.

Gentle cleaning to avoid damage

For daily stains (such as footprints, dust), wipe with clean water or a neutral detergent (such as a diluted dishwashing liquid) and a soft cloth.

⚠️ Avoid: strong acid/alkali cleaners, bleach, hard tools such as steel wool balls.

Stubborn stain treatment: Oil stains, ink marks, etc. can be treated locally with a small amount of alcohol or a special wood-plastic cleaner, then rinsed with clean water and dried.Wood-plastic clean.png

Second, deep maintenance: Scientific protection to extend lifespan

Regular inspection and tightening

Check whether the connection points are loose every quarter, and reinforce the screws or clips in time to prevent deformation.

Sun protection and drainage maintenance

Install sunshades or choose light-colored products to reduce the impact of intense sun exposure. Make sure to leave a 5-10mm expansion joint during installation 

to prevent water accumulation and expansion.

Anti-mold and anti-bacterial treatment

Damp environments are prone to mold growth. You can wipe with diluted bleach (in a ratio of 1:10) or use a dedicated anti-mold spray.

Iii. Common Problems and Solutions

Scratch repair: For minor scratches, gently sand with fine sandpaper (180-240 mesh) and then apply repair wax. Severe damage requires contact with a professional

 service provider to replace the board.

Fading treatment: Choosing products with UV protective coatings can reduce the risk of fading. If it has faded, it can be solved by local painting or replacing the board.


Expansion deformation: Reserve expansion joints during installation to avoid thermal expansion and contraction compression. If it has occurred,

 some of the plates need to be removed and the gap readjusted.


Iv. Why Choose Professional Wood-Plastic Cleaning and Maintenance?


Extending lifespan: Scientific maintenance can extend the service life of wood-plastic composites by more than 10 years, saving replacement costs.


Maintain beauty: Regularly clean to prevent stains from penetrating and keep the natural texture and color for a long time.


Environmental upgrade: Reduce the use of chemical cleaners, in line with the environmental protection concept of wood-plastic.

The charm of wood-plastic materials lies in their environmental friendliness and durability, and more importantly, 

in the fact that through scientific cleaning and maintenance, every detail can radiate lasting vitality. 

Whether it's a courtyard leisure area, a balcony view or a commercial space, 

choosing wood-plastic means choosing a lifestyle that requires low maintenance and offers high enjoyment.I. Daily Cleaning: Three simple steps for easy maintenance
