Critical Flaws of Traditional Boardwalk Materials
As a professional fiber cement wood-grain boardwalk planks manufacturer, we first analyze the shortcomings of conventional materials:
Comparison of Common Materials:
| Material Type | Main Issues | Service Life |
|---|
| Treated Wood | Flammable, prone to rot, frequent maintenance | 3-5 years |
| Plastic Wood | Easy aging | 5-8 years |
| Glass Plank | High cost, safety concerns | 10-15 years |
