The high price of timber has increased the input cost of panel products and wooden doors. Besides, environmental compliance and guidelines for using fire rated doors in government buildings and high-rise buildings have given WPC doors and door frames an opportunity to fill the gap. Besides, people's interest in using door frame installations with fire-rated, waterproof, termite-proof, and eco-friendly properties has given a boost to WPC doors and door frames, which have become highly demanded products in the building construction industry.
The door and door frame industry is witnessing high demand, and its demand is growing day by day. The flexibility in WPC characteristics and product performance attributes gives potential for various new applications, which is why WPC is giving tough competition to natural solid wood items as an alternative construction material and is increasing significantly because of the need for environmentally friendly and more recyclable products.
Builders in the construction industry say that the processing cost of wood is very high, and its application is also a time-consuming process. That is why the option of a WPC door frame is suitable for them, as it is a ready-to-use product that executes their work at a very fast pace. The builders also say that WPC product supply has increased many folds, and material availability is also very good and in large quantities, which is why demand is increasing day by day. Due to the previously considerable growth in the building construction industry, the demand for door frames has increased considerably.
The revival of the construction industry and high focus on the use of environmentally friendly materials are another booster of WPC door demand in India. It has witnessed a large number of flats being sold in major cities, and home construction is also on the rise. The increasing acceptance in building construction, newly built houses, and the furniture industry is widening the road for WPC products, supported by their superior physical and mechanical properties, which make them more compatible than any other traditional product in the segment.
