Wood Plastic Composite

Hi everybody, I am looking for a Composite to be used in Injection Molding process to produce flooring tile, I want to inject plastic pieces that will be installed on the floor and it should be resistant up to 25 years on outdoor usage, low traffic. I want to use recycled material, I can buy it ready to use or I can formulated in house with a turbo mixer, it is my first experience with wood composites so I will appreciate all the tips you can give me and any information about vendors or contacts you may know. Thanks and regards. My email is gmontes@plasticoscrt.com.mx
