Wood plastic composites gaining popularity
==========
Wood plastic composites in the form of kitchen cabinets, bathroom and balcony doors are slowly gaining popularity in Bangladesh as an alternative to wood. The composites are a combination of wood particles or fibers and thermoplastics, offering a durable and low-maintenance alternative. The annual sales of doors made of all types of materials stands at around Tk 3,000 crore, while the annual sale of wood plastic composite doors amounts to around Tk 240 crore to Tk 250 crore. There are at least three manufacturers in the country -- Pran-RFL Group, N Mohammad Group, and National Polymer Group. Wood plastic composites look like natural wood but absorb very little moisture and are almost 50 percent less expensive than teak. Each door is priced at around Tk 14,000 and is durable and environmentally friendly. The wood plastic composite market is currently dependent on imports, but National Polymer Group aims to grab a bigger portion of the sales. The sales of wood plastic composites are increasing steadily as they are a good alternative to wood and more durable than plastic. The market assessment shows that wood plastic composite doors are gaining more popularity than non-plasticised polyvinyl chloride or UPVC doors. Wood plastic composites are used in bathrooms, kitchens, and balconies as they are waterproof, durable, and environmentally friendly. However, the attraction for natural wooden doors will never die down. The manufacturers believe that wood plastic composites will gradually dominate the market for doors.
