DONGGUAN, China — October 23, 2026 — Necowood, a leading manufacturer of advanced WPC architectural profiles, today announced the launch of its new LED-Ready ASA Timber Tube series. To meet the diverse structural and design requirements of modern architecture, the series is available in two distinct specifications: the 43×43mm square profile and the 43×86mm rectangular profile.
As contemporary architecture increasingly favors clean, minimalist lines, external light fixtures often disrupt the aesthetic of facades and pergolas. Furthermore, traditional timber and standard composite materials frequently degrade under the dual stress of outdoor UV exposure and the localized heat generated by LED fixtures.
The Necowood Integrated Solution
Necowood's new Timber Tubes directly address these challenges by integrating a precise channel along the profile. A waterproof LED strip is applied within this groove, and a diffuser is snapped over it to create a perfectly linear glow. By utilizing the hollow core of the post, all electrical wiring is entirely concealed, eliminating visible cables and external junction boxes.
The dual-size offering provides architects with greater flexibility: the 43×43mm square tube is ideal for delicate vertical fins, louver screens, and detailed fencing, while the 43×86mm rectangular tube offers additional rigidity and visual presence for main structural columns and larger commercial facade spans.
"By utilizing our proprietary ASA co-extruded outer shell, we are not just providing a hollow post; we are providing a weatherproof and heat-resistant conduit for light," said the Necowood Product Engineering Team. "The dual-size launch—43×43 and 43×86—ensures that contractors can specify the exact structural capacity needed while maintaining a perfectly uniform architectural aesthetic."
Transforming Outdoor Spaces: Four Key Applications
Necowood's LED-ready profiles open new creative possibilities for architects, landscape designers, and builders worldwide:
1. Illuminated Architectural Facades: Vertical 43×43mm tubes create a striking, rhythmic light pattern that enhances building exteriors at night.
2. Dynamic Commercial Screening: Mixed lengths of 43×86mm profiles create depth and a modern aesthetic, illuminated by integrated top or side lighting.
3. Landscape & Privacy Boundaries: Durable 43×43mm posts define outdoor spaces, providing ambient safety lighting and privacy without exposed wiring.
4. Retail Storefronts & Entrances: A combination of 43×86mm structural beams and LED lighting creates an inviting, premium entrance for commercial spaces.
Why Necowood ASA Co-Extrusion is Essential
While standard WPC profiles may degrade when subjected to the heat of LED lights combined with direct sunlight, the Necowood Timber Tube features a specialized ASA (Acrylate Styrene Acrylonitrile) shield. This advanced outer layer is highly resilient to UV radiation and thermal fluctuations, ensuring that the structural integrity and color of the post remain intact for years.
Additionally, the multi-cell structural core ensures the profiles maintain high rigidity and load-bearing capacity. For B2B buyers, both the 43×43mm and 43×86mm profiles are available in standard wood-grain finishes and support OEM color matching and bespoke lengths to match your exact project specifications.
