Sustainability of Wood Plastic Composites

Course Description: When specifying exterior cladding or building envelope materials, todays architects and designers have many options: wood, engineered cladding products, stucco, brick and stone masonry, and wood-plastic composite, to name a few. A relatively newer product, wood-plastic composite (WPC) has been quickly growing in popularity and with its leading sustainability and design features, it's no wonder why. From its material makeup through the manufacturing process and performance/ life cycle, there are a number of factors that make composite cladding a highly sustainable option.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

• Understanding what Wood-Plastic Composites (WPCs) are comprised of.
• Understanding how WPC materials are manufactured
