How does moisture absorption vary between WPC and solid wood armchairs?
When choosing between WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) and solid wood armchairs, understanding their moisture absorption properties is crucial for durability and maintenance. Solid wood, being a natural material, tends to absorb moisture more readily, which can lead to swelling, warping, or cracking over time, especially in humid or outdoor environments. In contrast, WPC armchairs, made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic, exhibit significantly lower moisture absorption. This makes them more resistant to water damage, mold, and decay, ideal for outdoor or high-humidity settings. While solid wood offers a classic aesthetic, WPC provides superior longevity with minimal upkeep. Consider your environment and maintenance preferences when selecting the right material for your armchair.
