As an ideal environmentally friendly new wood substitute material, wood-plastic composite materials conform to the global development trend of advocating green environmental protection, low-carbon energy conservation, and can efficiently recycle waste plastics and waste biomass resources, solve white pollution, reduce deforestation, and help achieve the country's "dual carbon" goals. In recent years, wood-plastic composite materials have received strong support from national industrial policies.
From the perspective of market segments, my country's plastic-wood composite materials are well applied in the building materials industry. The application of new technologies in the production of wood-plastic materials will give it greater room for expansion. According to the currently applicable wood-plastic processes, wood-plastic materials can be expanded from the construction field to a wider range of levels such as transportation, railways, shipping, automobiles, electrical appliances, and packaging, becoming a strong competitor to traditional materials such as wood, metal, plastic, ceramics, cement, and glass, and maximizing the transfer and promotion of low-value materials to high-value application fields in resource utilization.
China is one of the countries in the world with relatively scarce wood resources. The structural contradiction between wood supply and demand is prominent, and the conflict between forest ownership, wood consumption and rapid economic development is inevitable. According to statistics, every ton of wood-plastic composite materials produced to replace natural wood can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 7.5 tons, indirectly increase forest carbon sinks, and the wood-plastic industry can bring significant ecological and environmental benefits. It is a typical low-carbon industry.
Wood-plastic composite materials are ideal new materials for replacing wood and plastic. Under the global development trend of "green environmental protection, low carbon and energy saving", the global market demand for wood-plastic composite materials has grown steadily. Compared with the European and American markets, the application of domestic wood-plastic composite materials has not yet been widely popularized. Under the background of the "dual carbon" goal and the low domestic wood self-sufficiency rate, the domestic wood-plastic industry has broad market prospects in the future.
