How does WPC’s resistance to termites compare to natural wood outdoor benches?
When choosing materials for outdoor benches, termite resistance is a critical factor. Wood-Plastic Composite (WPC) benches offer superior protection against termites compared to natural wood. Unlike untreated timber, which is highly susceptible to termite infestations, WPC is engineered with plastic and wood fibers that deter pests. Natural wood requires chemical treatments or regular maintenance to prevent termite damage, while WPC remains inherently resistant. Additionally, WPC benches resist moisture and decay, further reducing the risk of pest attraction. For long-lasting, low-maintenance outdoor furniture, WPC proves to be a smarter choice than traditional wood.
