What products does Forestar manufacture?

Forestar manufactures WPC composite decking boards, exterior and interior wall cladding, composite fencing, and garden sheds for outdoor storage. Production takes place at our facility in Xuancheng, Anhui, China, operated by Anhui Fumeida New Material Technology Co., Ltd.

What is Forestar composite made of?

Forestar composite blends reclaimed wood fibre with recycled polymers, and contains up to 90% recycled content. Capped profiles add a protective outer shell that improves resistance to staining and fading. Our boards do not need seasonal painting, sealing or staining.

Can importers order samples before placing a bulk order?

Yes. Distributors, contractors and retailers can request physical samples through the Order Sample page. We recommend evaluating colour, texture and surface temperature under your local sunlight conditions before you confirm a container order.

Do you support custom colours, profiles or private-label packaging?

We work with trade partners on colour, length, profile and packaging requirements for their target market. Please send your project specifications with your catalog request, and our export team will confirm feasibility.

Which markets does Forestar export to?

Forestar products are used in more than 45 countries. Our project references include the USA, Austria, Colombia, Finland and Chile.

Where can I meet the Forestar team in person?

Visit Forestar at PISCIMAD 2026 in Madrid, Booth 7A49, from 10 to 13 November 2026. You can also contact the export team to arrange a factory visit or a video call.

Material Science Briefing

Next-Generation Composite Flooring: Molecular Engineering & Durability

A comprehensive examination of capped polymer composite mechanics, thermal mitigation, and ecological lifecycle optimization.

Ultra-Dense Polymer Matrix

Forestar composite flooring leverages high-density recycled polyethylene (HDPE) combined with 60-mesh reclaimed hardwood micro-fibers, fused under 220°C high-pressure twin-screw extrusion to eliminate internal micro-voids.

Hydraulic Absorption Resistance

Standard wood exhibits up to 28% water intake; Forestar co-extruded capped boards register <0.5% water absorption under 72-hour ASTM D1037 immersion testing.

360° Shielding Shield Formulation

Our proprietary co-extrusion technology applies an automotive-grade polymer cap across all four sides of each profile, shielding the inner core from ultraviolet degradation, tannin leaching, and chemical discoloration.

Delta-E Color Longevity

Maintains ΔE < 3.0 over 3,000 continuous hours in accelerated QUV weatherometer testing, outperforming traditional uncapped composite planks.

Thermal Stability & Fire Rating

Utilizing nano-mineral fire retardant additives, Forestar WPC flooring systems achieve EN 13501-1 Class Bfl-s1 and ASTM E84 Class A fire spreads, fulfilling stringent global building safety mandates for multi-residential complexes.

Linear Expansion Control

Precision-calibrated coefficient of linear thermal expansion (CLTE) of <40 × 10^-6 K^-1 mitigates warping across extreme -40°C to +65°C cycling.

Smart Manufacturing 4.0

China Factory 4.0: Autonomous Precision & Resilient Capacity

Operating from our Xuancheng manufacturing complex under Anhui Fumeida New Material Technology Co., Ltd., we combine robotic automation with algorithmic quality audits.

Automated Raw Material Dosing

Gravimetric computerized feeding mechanisms verify wood-to-polymer proportions with 99.8% precision, eliminating batch variances in bulk container fulfillments.

Continuous Online Thickness Scanners

Non-contact laser gauges assess profile thickness and structural chamber symmetry in real-time, executing auto-adjustments to extrusion dies within milliseconds.

Intermodal Shipping Optimization

Integrated packaging engineering guarantees maximized container volume payloads (up to 950 sqm of uncapped or 850 sqm of capped decking per 40ft HQ container) with desiccated wrapping.

Infrared-reflective micro-pigments embedded in capped profiles reduce solar heat retention by up to 22% compared to standard dark composite decking during summer irradiation peaks.

Procurement Inquiries

Frequently Asked Questions: Global Supply & Technical Execution

Essential technical clarifications for importers, building merchants, landscape architects, and procurement heads.

What differentiates Forestar capped composite from conventional uncapped decking?

Forestar capped composite features a 360-degree protective outer shell co-extruded simultaneously over the composite core. This shields the internal wood fiber from all moisture absorption, household stains, grease, and direct UV radiation, eliminating regular chemical resealing, checking, or mold accumulation.

How does Forestar support customized colors, profiles, and private labeling?

We operate an agile internal tooling shop capable of producing custom extrusion dies in under 20 working days. Our color spectrophotometry lab formulates exact color matching against RAL or Pantone swatches, accompanied by private-label carton packaging, shrink-wrapping, and printed protective films.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) and container consolidation policy?

Our standard production MOQ is one 20ft container (approx. 400-500 sqm depending on board thickness). Crucially, trade clients can consolidate up to 4 different product profiles—such as decking, cladding, fence panels, and garden shed flat-packs—within a single 40ft HQ container to streamline regional logistics and working capital.

What warranty coverage and mechanical guarantees are provided?

Forestar offers a standard 25-year residential and 10-year commercial limited warranty against structural breakage, fungal decay, termite damage, and abnormal splintering when installed using our recommended hidden-clip substructure guidelines.
