When it comes to modern interior solutions, choosing the right material is crucial. Two popular options today are CENBOIL PLUS (Marine Grade BWP HDF Boards) and Century WPC Platinum 710 Plus Boards. Both are high-performance, but they serve different needs. Let’s compare them in detail.
1. Composition
CENBOIL PLUS – Made from 100% hardwood fibers with high-density pressing, giving it strength, smooth surface, and durability.
WPC (Wood Plastic Composite) – Made from a mix of wood fibers + thermoplastic polymers, offering waterproofing and long-term stability.
2. Water Resistance
CENBOIL PLUS – Boiling Water Proof (BWP), resists swelling and moisture.
WPC Boards – 100% Waterproof, even better than CENBOIL PLUS for areas with high water contact
3. Termite & Borer Resistance
CENBOIL PLUS – Termite & borer proof, thanks to chemical treatment.
WPC Boards – Naturally 100% termite & borer proof, since they contain no natural wood nutrients for pests.
4. Fire & Safety
CENBOIL PLUS – Fire retardant, safer in case of accidental fire.
WPC Boards – Fire retardant as well, with graded density for stability.
5. Strength & Screw Holding Capacity
CENBOIL PLUS – Excellent screw holding capacity and high bonding strength, suitable for furniture and heavy fittings.
WPC Boards – Strong but slightly lower screw holding compared to HDF boards like CENBOIL PLUS.
6. Surface Finish
CENBOIL PLUS – Super smooth surface, ideal for laminates, paints, and veneers.
WPC Boards – Matte finish, can be directly used or laminated, but not as fine as HDF.
7. Durability & Warranty
CENBOIL PLUS – 25-year warranty, long-lasting if used properly.
WPC Platinum 710 Plus – Lifetime warranty, highly durable for both interiors and semi-outdoor use.
8. Applications
CENBOIL PLUS:
- Modular kitchens (especially shutters)
- Wardrobes
- Furniture in moisture-prone areas
- Decorative interiors requiring smooth finishing
WPC Boards:
- Bathroom vanities
- Outdoor furniture & partitions
- Kitchen carcasses
- Areas with constant water exposure
CENBOIL PLUS vs WPC Boards: Price Comparison
Generally, WPC is a bit expensive due to its 100% waterproof property and lifetime warranty. CENBOIL PLUS is more cost-effective for strength-based interior applications.
Another factor that makes WPC a bit costlier is PVC resin. Which is most of the manufactures are import from China.
