Title: Benefits of PVC Building Materials in Construction
1Benefits Of PVC Building Materials In
Construction
2What is PVC
- PVC - Poly(vinyl) chloride
- PVC was discovered first in 1835 by Henri Victor
Regnault in 1872 Eugen Baumann. - PVC is replacing traditional building materials
such as wood, metal, concrete and clay in many
applications because that is more effective. It
can be more softer flexible with the additional
use of plasticizer.
3Manufacturing Process Of PVC
4Benefits Of PVC
- Plastic PVC Panels, is one of the most popular
plastics used in building and construction. It is
used in drinking water and waste water pipes,
window frames, flooring and roofing foils, wall
coverings, cables and many other applications. - Strong and lightweight
- Durable
- Easy to install
- Cost-effective
- Fire resistant
- Safe material
- Versatile
5Strong And Lightweight
- Plastic PVC Panels offer a tremendous weight
advantage over alternative materials. PVC's
abrasion resistance, light weight, good
mechanical strength and toughness are key
technical advantages for its use in building and
construction applications.
Durable
PVC is resistant to weathering, shock, chemical
rotting and abrasion. So, It is the preferred
choice for many different long-life and outdoor
products.
6Easy To Install
- PVC can be cut, shaped, welded and joined easily
in a variety of styles. Its light weight reduces
manual handling difficulties.
Cost-Effective
PVC Panels are popular material for construction
applications for excellent cost-performance
advantages
7Fire Resistant
- Because of its high chlorine content PVC products
have fire safety characteristics difficult to
ignite and will not continue burning in the
absence of an external ignition source.
Safe Material
PVC is non-toxic the world's most researched
and thoroughly tested plastic.
Versatile
PVC has been the preferred material for
scaffolding billboards, interior design articles,
window frames, fresh and waste water systems,
cable insulation and many more applications.
8Conclusions
- The experts recommended a strategy for all of the
product groups investigated to the PVC industry
that attempts to maintain the short and medium
term market position by means of continual
improvement. Furniture covered by a PVC film is
easy to clean and helps reducing the risks of
infection.
