Introduction to PVC

PVC is a lightweight, corrosion-resistant manufacturing material with excellent tensile strength, rigidity, weather resistance, flame retardant, and chemical inertness.

It offers a range of beneficial material qualities, including dimensional stability, vapor barrier lotion, electrical insulation, and manufacturing versatility.

For many applications, including pipe, electrical insulation, food and chemical processing, and outdoor appliances, PVC is the cost-effective and long-lasting choice.
