Wood-plastic refers to a combination of natural wood and polymeric materials such as polypropylene, polyethylene, or polyvinyl chloride. These polymeric materials are combined with wood in the wood-plastic production process and increase its mechanical properties, resistance to moisture and pests, and dimensional stability. Wood-plastic is used in various industries due to its unique characteristics such as: strength, lightness, and beauty.

Wood-plastic or composite wood is a new material that is produced using environmentally friendly materials. This product is classified as a composite or multi-structure material, meaning that it is made up of a combination of two or more different materials. Its raw materials include: wood powder (which is obtained from waste and scraps from the wood industry), polymer (such as polyethylene or polypropylene), necessary additives, and color pigments.
