URGENT: Custom size BWP flush door/Plywood of 30mm

PVC : The PVC door \ frames is a old technology , it has several issues.
a)The PVC door / door assembled is also not sturdy, it will rattle and deform just after few uses. it does not close properly. The frames chip and crack.
b) The raw material is recycled PVC and are not manufactured with good practices, the plastizers and dioxins which are potent carcinogens(aka cancer causing) are released\ooze into your house over years. can affect children drastically, CPVC is a variant.
c) The fine soot \dust are electro statically deposited onto door,thanks to highly electrostrictive property of PVC. The door decolors quickly.

FPC: nowadays they make solid doors out of this, It is super heavy. After years, the door frames and doors thicken(the resin and fiber flow slowly\deform) in the bottom and they do not shut properly.They have properties just like glass aka supercooled liquid, they flow and deform irregularly.

Bathroom door frames and doors should be light and sturdy.
WPC(wood plastic composite) is a new age Composite, I have used it in my house .
it primarily comprises of Wood flour and HDPE. e3extrusions Peenya bangalore has hollow extruded frame\Jambs and Adowoods Indore make solid ones ,the solid ones should cost about 80 to 100 Rs /Rft. you can make Bathroom frames just like wood ones with your carpenter. It comes with rebate of 32mm, thickness of 45mm and width of 90mm and wood finish , ready to paint or polish(rawmaterial they cut it and give it whatever length you want,just like wood). These are 100% water proof and look like wood. There are several vendors of WPC sheets , WPC foam sheets etc, google it.
WPC sheets costs around 110 to 125/sft , just like your premium Plywood costs.Ask Nikki , they will do the frames if you want.

I am looking for solid WPC doors for my two bathrooms. Where in Bangalore can I buy the WPC sheets? Contact details of Plamedra?

@biddappa - Not sure if you have already purchased the doors. You can definitely get custom size water proof flush doors;

I used AK flush doors (water proof) made of pine wood, for all doors; Hard wood flush doors are relatively cheaper, but my engineer suggested to use pine wood flush doors, which are around 20 rupees more per sq. ft. when compared to hard wood ones

Zahid,
Can you let me know where you bought the AK waterproof pine flush doors?

Doing flush door with plywood is typically not done with 1 sheet , 2 sheets are glued together , its more practical than ordering 30mm one. doing doors with bwp plywood is a expensive affair and you will end up with a heavy plain looking door , what do you do for edges, it will chip and break eventually.

Hardwood doors are not waterproof, you can water proof to a extent by painting it or cover with membrane\skin . Again the issue is with the edges,skin\membrane do not extend to edges.

WoodPlasticComposite is a fantastic option, where the material itself is solid , light weight , water proof. 2 wpc sheets(15mm) will be glued together and top sheet will routed with a panel pattern or any custom pattern. Nikki doors does this for custom sizes.(may be around 200psft) or you can source these sheets from Plamedra (wpc supplier to Nikki doors) and get your carpenter to finish the door,just like your plywood one.

I am also looking for wpc doors for bathrooms.
@nivas,
Front and backside of the doors are covered using hdpe/plastic/PVC material.
But what about thickness side? Especially if the wood is exposed on the bottom thickness side, water will again spoil the wood part.
How should we protect / water proof the edges?
Kindly suggest your opinion.

Thanks,
Karthik
