Forestar product is wood plastic composites, made from a unique blend of recycled wood powder and plastics, combines with highly advanced manufacturing process. Forestar product is a special combination of approximately 60% hardwood fibers, almost 30% polypropylene, and the rest 10% contains high quality pigments and some other additives such as UV stability, mildew and fire resistance.

Forestar products has an appearance that is very similar to wood and works as perfect alternative to wood, but not substitute.

Forestar product is of unique and higher-cost formulation, and the best fire resistant rate we can carry is the B1. Unlike wood, it is not easily to be ignited due to its solid product with no air pockets inside, but once it catch fire, if the fire source is removed from, it will self-extinguish very quickly and will not drip molten material like plastic does.

Yes. You may use a router if you are installing a solid profile.

Yes. Almost everything will fade over time when exposed to sunlight and other weather conditions. Forestar product is added high quality UV-inhibiting pigments and made from hardwood fibers in order to minimize the fading (softwood fades far more than hardwood), but there will still be some visible fade over first few months(the speed and degree of this fading depend on actual weather conditions) giving a more textured appearance. As with any timber based product, some fade will occur but the plastic content holds its colour. Any initial colour difference between boards is due to the natural colour variance in the wood fibers and once weathered, the boards will all be similar colour tone.

Forestar product can be heated up and bent, but Forestar cannot guarantee the performance of such application, and assumes no responsibility for it. We recommend such kind of design and work should be reviewed and operated by engineer or licensed installer.

Forestar product will expand slightly with greatly temperature changes, especially when on the very hot day with a blazing sun. Forestar product, however, is applied unique formulations to minimize the effect from heat build-up. And there will be no big problems if you follow our .
