WPC testing standards currently used in the United States: (USA Materials Association) D7031-2004 wood products physical and mechanical properties of the composite evaluation ASTM Standard Guide; ASTM / D7032-2006 WPC decorative panels and guardrail level of system performance standards. The world's largest wood materials / products manufacturers are: [US] TREX company, which is listed on the New York Stock Exchange. It is reported that the company's 2006 wood production reached 300,000 tons, an annual turnover of over 500 million US dollars. Japan EIN WOOD Corporation produced wood products is one of the highest international quality products, on behalf of the WPC substitute natural wood in the direction and quality of the level of development. Chinese-made plastic products is endorsed in the individual comparison can separate categories with Europe and other developed countries.



China WPC began in the 1990s, 10 years later than the overseas development of WPC. Since the late 1990s, with Europe and the United States on wood packaging from China to restrict development and technology transfer domestic WPC has entered a rapid development period. To the beginning of this century, it had become the prototype of the domestic wood industry. WPC industry as a multi-faceted large-span marginal specialization emerging industries, the equipment, technologies and processes related to the precision machinery, chemical, hydraulic, vacuum technology, thermal conduction, fluid mechanics, sensor technology, electronic automation and computer programming and many other disciplines and professions, China WPC with the support and cooperation of many professional organizations, through constant development and innovation, has been gradually self-contained. And the potential benefits in encouraging national recycling business demand-driven economic policies dual power, the nationwide "wood fever" is gradually on the rise. According to incomplete statistics, by the end of 2006, directly or indirectly engaged in wood-plastic composite materials research and development, production and support of more than 150 enterprises, the current trend is in full swing, including state-owned, private, wholly-owned, joint stock and various types of joint ventures. WPC industry employed tens of thousands of people, a substantial increase of production capacity, annual sales of wood products has more than 120,000 tons, the annual output value of more than 2 billion yuan. From a global perspective, it has become North America following the development trend and market capacity most optimistic region.

Judging from the current domestic wood enterprise geographic distribution, far more than in the east, west, of which the wood Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta region of business is most concentrated; with the level of technology on the east individual enterprises more leading technology; South enterprises will hold the number of products and the absolute advantage of the market. Currently a number of key enterprises in the industry's products have reached or even exceeded the international advanced level, many companies are increasingly remaining highlights the characteristics of their products. Chinese wood industry is one of the domestic manufacturing industry is one of the few countries in Europe and America can equal dialogue, Chinese wood ready to prepare the world.
