What is Plastic Lumber?
Plastic lumber is an eco-friendly material crafted from recycled plastics, designed to mimic the look of real wood. Unlike conventional timber, it resists rot, decay, and insect infestation, and won’t splinter, offering a tough, low-maintenance solution for building projects.
Once limited to black, plastic lumber now comes in a range of colours, from dark brown to bright, lively shades, offering colours to match virtually any design aesthetic.
Often referred to as composite lumber, plastic wood, or eco wood, this cutting-edge material is made from post-consumer and industrial plastic waste, collected from agriculture, food and drink packaging, and everyday household recycling. Its manufacturing process uses up to 66% less energy than producing virgin plastic from crude oil, making it a significantly greener option for repurposing plastic.
By transforming waste into durable construction materials, plastic lumber keeps trash out of landfills while lowering your carbon footprint. From decking and fencing to outdoor furniture, recycled plastic offers a sustainable, eco‑friendly alternative that supports global efforts toward a greener future.
