Latin Americanists and film aficionados might recognize the setting of Irma Voth and the film-within-the-novel from Silent Light (Stellet Licht), the 2007 Plattdeutsch-language film by Carlos Reygadas.
Wood-plastic composites (WPCs) are composite materials made of wood fiber / wood flour and thermoplastic(s) (includes PE, PP, PVC etc.). Chemical additives seem practically invisible (except mineral fillers and pigments, if added) in the composite structure.
People choose woodplastic composite (WPC) or even plastic lumber (PL) over wood because they want the finished project to resist rot, wood-eating insects, harsh sunlight, and mold and mildew, and they never want to paint it.
