What are the effects of fertilizers or pesticides on WPC bench surfaces?

WPC (Wood-Plastic Composite) benches are popular for outdoor use due to their durability and low maintenance. However, exposure to fertilizers or pesticides can affect their surfaces over time.

Fertilizers, especially those high in nitrogen or salts, may cause discoloration or surface degradation on WPC benches. Prolonged contact can lead to fading or weakening of the composite material. Similarly, pesticides containing harsh chemicals might leave stains or alter the texture of the bench.

To minimize damage, wipe off any spills immediately and rinse the surface with water. Regular cleaning with mild soap can help maintain the bench's appearance. For long-term protection, consider applying a UV-resistant sealant designed for WPC materials.

By understanding these effects, you can preserve the quality and lifespan of your WPC bench while keeping it looking its best in outdoor settings.
