For your information, ABWOOD is our brand name for Wood Plastic Composite material. The material consists of 70% saw dust (1 st stage of saw mill's output; thats free from any chemical treatment) & 30% of virgin polymer (such as PE or PP or PVC).
The process begins by melting virgin polymer at a temperature of 200 Celcius and then acting as bonding agent to combine with wood saw dust, including some colour pigment & additives. It is free from preservative wood treatment and formaldehyde. Thus, this material is safe to use.
The application:
Decking, hand rail, fence, louver, door, pergola, gazebo, garden furniture, playground equipment, roofing material etc.
The benefit:
100% Water resistance
100% Anti – termites
100% Recyclable

Benefits- all users
Besides material benefits to users, other benefits that may interest middle stage of users/ merchandiser to consider using ABWOOD as a substitute to existing conventional material especially wood;
1) Advantages to project owner/corporate:
• Corporate image, green material utilizes.
• Providing less-maintenance building material
• Increase public awareness to recycling activities, CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) reputation increases.
• More Stable costing by contractor because ABWOOD prices are easier to be managed by mass production technology
from plastic industry.
• More comfortable to undertake warranty issue. (Direct to manufacturer)
2) Advantages to contractor:
• Better controlled cost due to pre-fabrication, pre-cut thus wastage is minimized.
• Labour is less required due to semi-finished and pre-fabricated building part is supplied.
• Less or very minimum level of surfacing work after construction/installation completed.
• Shorter construction time due to semi-finished component.
• More standardized quality control. (All ABWOOD profiles are using same extrusion method and control by Perceptive
Profiles SDN BHD.)
• Easy Maintenance and repair in future, due to pre-fabricate system, component of each member is interchangeable.
• More confidence to log in price when tendering new contract.
• Eliminate disposal issues, because all remaining and waste can be recycled.
3) Advantages to consumers:
• Low long term maintenance work and cost.
• More time for leisure activities rather than up-keep work such as painting, varnishing and repairing work.
• Less injury due to timber cracking, loose nailing that leads to deformation.
• More daily participation in eco-friendly product that may help in sustaining environment for future generation.
• In case of accidental damage to ABWOOD products, most of the members (profiles) can be replaced separately as a result of pre-fabricate system that saves valuable time and effort.
