Dr. Wayne Song studied wood-plastic composite under the supervision of
Prof. Ray Woodhams of University of Toronto, who is the pioneer of
wood-plastic composite technology in North America. Dr. Wayne Song was
one of the core staff of Prof. Woodhams’ startup company,
“Self-Reinforced Plastics Industries Ltd.”
