How does WPC’s resistance to indentation compare to travertine in outdoor sofa bases?
When selecting materials for outdoor sofa bases, durability and resistance to indentation are critical factors. WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) and travertine are two popular choices, each with distinct properties. WPC is engineered to resist indentation, offering flexibility and strength, while travertine, a natural stone, provides rigidity but may be prone to surface wear over time.
WPC’s composite structure distributes pressure evenly, reducing visible dents and maintaining appearance. Travertine, though hard, can chip or crack under heavy impact. For outdoor use, WPC often outperforms travertine in indentation resistance, especially in high-traffic areas. Consider climate and usage to choose the best material for long-lasting outdoor furniture.
