Composite coated/encapsulated wood products and methods to produce the same

This invention describes a wooden board or beam that's covered with two protective layers. The inner layer is a foamed material made from plastic and a mineral filler, applied directly to the wood. An outer layer then covers this foamed layer, creating a durable product specifically designed for use as structural support in decks.

Why it matters: Advancements in polymer foaming and composite material science since 2009 could enable more efficient production or enhanced performance for such structural coatings. New sustainable polymers and fillers might also improve the product's environmental profile.
