PVC: Too valuable to waste

PVC is one of the worlds most versatile and sustainable materials.

PVC is found in virtually every walk of life. It is a material particularly suited to a variety of products:  windows, pipes, floor coverings and cables as well as having a growing number of applications in the field of medicine.  It is low in its use of resources.  Its production costs are moderate.  It has low
maintenance requirements.

PVC, especially when used in such products as window and door frames, may be continuously recycled in a closed loop with the recycled material being used again and again in new window frames and other building products.
