What are the differences in thermal reflectance between WPC and mirrored flower boxes?
When comparing WPC (Wood-Plastic Composite) and mirrored flower boxes, thermal reflectance is a key factor to consider. WPC flower boxes are made from a blend of wood fibers and plastic, offering moderate thermal reflectance. They absorb some heat but generally remain cooler than traditional materials. Mirrored flower boxes, on the other hand, feature highly reflective surfaces that significantly reduce heat absorption by reflecting sunlight. This makes mirrored boxes ideal for hot climates, as they help keep plants cooler. However, WPC boxes provide better insulation in cooler conditions. Choosing between the two depends on your climate and gardening needs.
