The Moisture-Proof Color PVC Co-Extruded Board for Outdoor delivers unrivaled durability in harsh weather conditions, from tropical rainforests to coastal salt spray zones. Engineered with a dual-layer co-extruded structure, it features a 0.5mm weather-resistant outer skin (formulated with UV stabilizers and anti-oxidants) and a reinforced foam core (density 0.7–0.9g/cm³) that repels water and resists microbial growth.

Available in thicknesses from 5mm to 30mm and 15+ fade-resistant colors, it serves as a low-maintenance alternative to wood, metal, and concrete for outdoor structures. Certified by IPX7 waterproof rating (1m immersion for 30 minutes) and ASTM D638 for tensile strength (>20MPa), it withstands annual rainfall up to 4,000mm (e.g., monsoon regions) and wind speeds up to 150km/h (Category 4 hurricane) when properly installed. Its lifespan of 15–20 years outdoors reduces replacement frequency and environmental impact.
Complete Moisture Barrier & Mold Resistance
The closed-cell structure achieves 0.1% water absorption (ASTM D570) even after 72-hour saltwater immersion, preventing rot, swelling, or delamination. It passes ASTM D2017 mold testing (no fungal growth) in 95% humidity—eliminating the need for toxic fungicides required for wood maintenance.
Extreme Temperature & UV Resistance
Infused with 3% HALS and benzophenone UV inhibitors, it retains color (ΔE <2.0) after 10,000 hours of direct sunlight—outperforming painted metal (fades in 2–3 years). It remains stable from -40°C (Arctic winters) to 70°C (desert summers), with dimensional change <0.2% in temperature cycling tests.
Impact Resistance & Low Maintenance
The tough outer layer withstands hail (12mm diameter ice balls at 20m/s) without cracking, while the foam core absorbs impacts from falling branches or debris. Maintenance requires only annual cleaning with mild detergent—no sanding, repainting, or sealing needed, reducing lifecycle costs by 60% vs. wood.
Outdoor Structures
Perfect for patio covers, garden sheds, and poolside cabanas. Its moisture resistance prevents warping near pools, while color options complement landscape designs.
Exterior Signage & Cladding
Used for building facades, wayfinding signs, and parking lot markers. The material resists graffiti (easily removed with solvent) and coastal salt corrosion, maintaining appearance in marine environments.
Outdoor Furniture & Storage
Ideal for garden benches, storage cabinets, and tool sheds. It supports static loads up to 60kg/m², withstanding heavy items and human weight without bending.
Q: How should it be installed in hurricane zones?
A: Use stainless steel fasteners (every 30cm along edges) and aluminum support frames for 12mm+ boards. This configuration withstands 150km/h winds per ASTM E1886 testing.
Q: Can it be painted or stained later?
A: Yes, lightly sand with 240-grit sandpaper and apply UV-resistant exterior paint. The non-porous surface requires 1–2 coats for full coverage.
Q: Does it expand/contract with temperature changes?
A: Minimal movement (0.06mm/m per °C) allows for 3mm expansion gaps between panels, preventing buckling in extreme temperature swings.
Q: Is it eco-friendly?
A: Contains 30% recycled PVC and is 100% recyclable at end-of-life. It avoids deforestation and toxic preservatives used in pressure-treated wood.
