Yes. WPC composite decking is permanently termite proof — not because it is chemically treated, but because it contains no cellulose timber content on any exposed surface that termites can consume. Unlike H3 or H4 treated pine which loses its chemical protection over time and must be retreated, WPC is inherently and permanently termite resistant. There is no retreatment required and the termite proof performance does not diminish over the product's lifetime. This makes WPC composite the single most effective termite-proof decking solution available for Australian homes.

WPC composite outperforms Merbau on maintenance, termite resistance, and long-term cost. Merbau requires oiling every 12 months (typically $30–50/m² in labour and materials) to prevent greying and surface degradation, and is not immune to termite attack. WPC requires zero annual maintenance and is permanently termite proof. Over a 15-year period, the total cost of WPC is significantly lower than Merbau when maintenance costs are included. WPC also holds its colour more consistently — Merbau without regular oiling turns silver-grey within 12–18 months in Australian conditions.

Standard WPC composite undergoes a natural weathering process in the first 3–6 months of outdoor exposure, during which the surface colour settles slightly. After this initial period, the colour stabilises. For Queensland and other high-UV environments, we strongly recommend our co-extrusion WPC decking, which features a UV-stable polymer cap layer tested to ASTM D7032 weathering standards — providing significantly better long-term colour retention in intense Australian UV. Contact us for co-extrusion product samples and technical specifications.

Yes. BOHAI WPC decking achieves P5 slip resistance rating under AS 4586 — the Australian Standard for slip resistance of pedestrian surfaces. P5 is the rating recommended for pool surrounds and wet areas in Australian standards. The grooved surface profile on our decking boards provides effective slip resistance when wet, making them safe for barefoot pool use. For maximum slip resistance in high-risk commercial pool applications, our solid core profiles provide deeper grooves for enhanced wet surface traction.

Our WPC composite products carry Class B fire rating under European standards. For Australian Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) rated properties, specific product selection depends on your BAL rating (BAL-12.5 through BAL-FZ). We can provide fire performance test reports and technical documentation to support your building permit application. For BAL-40 and BAL-FZ rated properties, we recommend contacting us directly to discuss the most appropriate product specification and to obtain relevant fire testing certificates for your council submission.

BOHAI WPC composite decking starts from $12/m² factory direct from China — significantly below Australian retail pricing for equivalent co-extrusion WPC decking, which typically runs $45–80/m² through Australian suppliers. Composite fencing starts from $58 per panel including aluminium posts. Australian buyers ordering at project or container volume typically save 40–50% versus domestic sourcing. Contact us for a specific Australian pricing quote based on your product, quantity and colour requirements.

Sea freight from our Guangdong factory to Australian ports takes approximately 12–18 days to Sydney and Melbourne, and 10–15 days to Perth and Brisbane. Production lead time is 15–20 working days. Total time from order confirmation to Australian port arrival is typically 5–7 weeks. Import biosecurity documentation for processed timber products is prepared as standard — we provide phytosanitary certificates and heat treatment declarations with every shipment. Free samples can be dispatched by air to your Australian address within 48 hours of request.

Yes — Australian distributors, landscape contractors, pool builders and building merchants are our primary target customers for the Australian market. We supply factory-direct wholesale with flexible MOQ starting from 50 panels for fencing and 100m² for decking. SGS certification and AS/NZS-relevant test documentation is provided for product specification. OEM and private label arrangements are available for distributors.
