WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) Extrusion Lines

Extrusion lines
for WPC proﬁles and granules

With Bausano POLYWOOD technology, it is possible to obtain proﬁles composed of natural fiber up to 80%, with features that make them better than wood in terms of reliability, performance and production costs. Bausano also produces systems for the manufacture of WPC granules, which in turn can be transformed in ﬁnished product through molding or extrusion.

Bausano builds extrusion lines suitable for the production of WPC granules with high-quality mechanical features, starting from renewable raw materials selected for environmental protection. These lines are fully customisable and highly efficient at any production output, thanks to the innovative extruders of the MD Series and the wide range of modular accessories. Ease of use and time saving for maintenance and cleaning are always our goals during the study and design of our granulation lines.

Features:

Versatile, can be processed like wood
Resistant to corrosion, weather and UV radiation
Termite-resistant
Cheaper than wood
Aesthetic appeal equal to wood, also in ﬁnishings
Does not require large-scale maintenance or special treatments for laying
Excellent thermal insulator
Flame retardant

Raw Material

The term WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) indicates an entire family of products (proﬁles, boards and granules) speciﬁcally produced with a mixture of polymers (PVC, PE, PLA or PP) and vegetable components (wood dust, but also rice husks, almond shells, etc.) Cheap, resistant and versatile, WPC represents a new frontier in the ﬁeld of building and industrial materials, with a variety of applications.

COMPOSITION

VEGETABLE COMPONENTS: wood dust, rice husk, vegetable waste and natural ﬁbre in general.
SYNTHETIC COMPONENTS: PVC, PE, PP, PLA.

100% Recyclable

Composed of waste from other processes such as renewable raw materials and recovered polymers, POLYWOOD is one of the few environmentally friendly materials with negligible environmental impact. Unlike mineral rubble, requiring an expensive disposal process, WPC is fully recyclable and can be retransformed in a new product at low cost.
After use, WPC can be recycled, extruded and converted into a new product. Not only wood dust then, but also avocado stones, rice husks, almond shells, cork and other vegetable scraps which, when mixed with polymers such as PVC and PE, become composite wood, or WPC.

Resysta® Partnership

Identical to wood but completely wood-free, Resysta® is the material of the future, which meets the new demands of sustainability while ensuring higher performance.

60% rice husks, 22% common salt, 18% mineral oil. This is the formula of Resysta®, the innovative blend created by the same-name German company. Staying ahead among them, Bausano has recently developed complete lines of extruders and accessories optimized for the characteristics of this material.
