Composite / WPC
Composite decking in Singapore
If you searched for composite decking, you are usually looking at WPC — wood–plastic composite outdoor boards. Here is how the category works locally, what it costs on this site, and where to go next.

Is composite decking the same as WPC in Singapore?
Yes for most local searches. Composite decking and WPC describe the same wood–plastic outdoor board category. Capped boards usually win for open-air Singapore decks; uncapped suits covered, low-stain niches. Hardwood still wins if you want authentic Chengal or Balau character you will maintain. Use the price and application pages below rather than treating every “composite” listing as equal.
What composite decking means here
Composite decking in Singapore almost always means WPC (wood–plastic composite): wood fibre or flour blended with polymer resins, extruded into timber-look planks. Retailers and installers use both labels for the same shopping category. For materials, capped vs uncapped and hollow vs solid, read what is WPC decking.
Composite / WPC price as of October 2026
On this site we publish the same installed band used across our pricing tools: S$18–32 per sqft as of October 2026, with a S$1,000 minimum job. Board tiers break that band down:
- Standard hollow: S$18–22/sqft — Hollow-core uncapped or lightly capped boards for covered or low-traffic areas.
- Capped co-extruded: S$20–27/sqft — Co-extruded cap for stain, fade and moisture resistance — the usual Singapore outdoor choice.
- Solid capped: S$26–32/sqft — Solid-core capped boards for pool decks, high traffic and heavier loads.
Actual quotes still depend on subframe, access and detailing. Run the WPC decking price calculator, then WhatsApp photos for a site-specific figure.
Pros and cons in brief
Capped composite usually needs wash-focused care rather than hardwood oiling cycles, and the polymer fraction is not a termite meal the way untreated wood can be. The honest watch-outs are the same as on our pros and cons guide: dark colours run hot, boards expand with heat, and drainage or zero-gap installs fail regardless of brand.
Where homeowners use it
Match the space before you lock a board tier. Start with applications for pool decks, roof terraces, gardens and patios, and condo PES.
