Wood-plastic composites are materials, which hare made up of wood flour or fiber and plastic resins. These composites also contain a certain degree of additives, which foster the integration of the wood and plastic and aid in the manufacturing process. Most wood-plastic composites are manufactured using wood and plastic wastes or recyclates. A minor share of these products is manufactured using virgin wood and plastic materials. Extrusion is largely employed for the manufacturing process, followed by injection moulding. TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global Wood-Plastic Composites market will grow at a CAGR of 9 percent over the period 2013-2018. Research Beam Model: Research Beam Product ID: 17800 2500 USD New
