PVC RIGID
PVC Rods / PVC Sheets (Poly Vinyl Chloride) is the most widely used member of the vinyl family.
It offer the most economical solutions when chemical resistance, self-extinguishing characteristics and good overall physical properties are required at low temperatures.
Rigid PVC (also known as uPVC) is the third most widely produced polymer. In terms of plastic extrusions, PVC is the most frequently extruded rigid plastic. It is low cost, has recyclable properties and is versatile for both indoor and outdoor use. This makes rigid PVC extrusions a popular choice for a wide range of applications. uPVC stands for unplasticised PVC and the material is characterised by its durability and strength. It’s also an extremely adaptable plastic, great for many applications.
PVC Rods are available in Rigid form (UPVC), while PVC Sheets are available in both Rigid & Flexible form.
