If your product is made from recycled materials, why is it more expensive than wood?

November 30, 2021

While most of the raw materials used in making COOWIN composite are recycled, it is more expensive to manufacture as these materials need to be carefully processed, so as to perform better than wood through lesser maintenance. Over time, however, the maintenance, repair, and/or replacement costs associated with wood will end up outweighing your initial payment for COOWIN composite products.
