About Plastic Lumber

Plastic lumber is a sustainable building material made from recycled plastics, engineered to replicate the appearance of natural wood. Unlike traditional timber, it resists rot, decay, and insect damage, and it won’t splinter, providing a durable, low-maintenance option for construction projects.

Originally available only in black, plastic lumber now comes in a wide spectrum of colours, from rich browns to vibrant, eye-catching shades, making it easy to complement any design style.

Also known as composite lumber, plastic wood, or eco wood, this innovative material is produced from post-consumer and industrial plastic waste sourced from agriculture, food and beverage packaging, and everyday household recycling. Its production requires up to 66% less energy compared to manufacturing virgin plastic from crude oil, making it a far greener solution for repurposing plastic.

This manufacturing process generates no waste, and the products are recyclable at the end of their use, supporting a greener lifestyle.
