The two best doors on the market are WPC doors and MDF doors. Today I would like to discuss the difference between WPC and MDF materials.

First let’s look at WPC.

WPC is a wood-plastic composite material made of wood and plastic, which is an advanced environmental protection material. During the production process, we form a network of bamboo fibers and polymer resins to make WPC without formaldehyde by-products.

MDF refers to medium density boards that can be made from wood fibers or other plant fibers.

Next, let’s take a look at the difference in how the two Materials are made:

WPC door skins and door frames are produced by extrusion.

MDF board is made of fiber and synthetic resin pressed under heat and pressure.

Additionally, WPC has a density of 2 g/cm3, while MDF has a density range of 0.5 to 0.8 g/cm3

So it is clear that WPC is denser than MDF material. The door skin of the WPC looks smooth to the touch. At the same time, the MDF you can tell the difference, obviously, the MDF is a bit stiff.

So, what are the advantages of WPC material compared to MDF? I have 8 benefits for you.

• WPC waterproof and flame retardant.
• It is also soundproof and anti-vibration.
• WPC has strong anti-moisture and anti-termite ability. This was demonstrated in saline conditions.
• Long service life, good shape retention and no deformation.
• Easy to clean and maintain, low labor cost.
• It can be nailed, drilled, painted, and can easily do any type of finishing you want.
• 100% WPC recycling, environmental protection, saving forestry resources in production.
• Weather resistance, suitable for temperature range from -10 (degree Celsius) to 55 (degree Celsius)

So in general, they are both good materials and widely used in all kinds of furniture. However, WPC is a new type of material, which has more advantages than MDF and is more liked by customers.
