PVC
PVC is durable, chemically resistant, and flexible. Its toughness and impact resistance make it ideal for pipes, fittings, and construction materials. Lightweight and resistant to moisture and UV exposure, PVC performs well in both indoor and outdoor applications.
What Is PVC?
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a widely used synthetic polymer, developed as an affordable and durable material. Known for its excellent chemical resistance, flexibility, and durability, PVC has become essential in a range of industries.
PVC can be modified with plasticizers, stabilizers, and other additives to improve flexibility, weather resistance, and processing ease. This adaptability makes PVC a preferred material in industries such as construction, automotive, healthcare, and consumer goods.
It is often used for pipes, fittings, insulation, and flooring due to its toughness, moisture resistance, and ability to withstand harsh environments. Its versatility allows for extrusion, molding, and shaping into various products.

Available Materials
Rigid PVC (RPVC)
Rigid PVC, also known as unplasticized PVC (uPVC), is a hard, rigid form of PVC. It does not contain plasticizers, which makes it strong and durable.
Flexible PVC (FPVC)
Flexible PVC, also known as plasticized PVC, contains plasticizers that make it soft and pliable. It is less commonly used in CNC machining due to its flexibility, but it can be machined for specific applications.
Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC-C)
CPVC is a modified form of PVC with additional chlorine content, making it more resistant to high temperatures and corrosive chemicals.
Modified PVC (PVC-M)
Modified PVC includes various additives to enhance specific properties such as impact resistance, UV resistance, and weatherability. These modifications can make the material more suitable for certain applications.
Frequently asked questions
Extrusion: Used for pipes, profiles, and films.
Injection Molding: Used for complex, high-precision parts.
Blow Molding: Used for hollow, thin-walled parts like bottles.

PVC is not highly flammable, but it is combustible. When exposed to fire, PVC can release hydrogen chloride gas and other toxic fumes.
While PVC can withstand boiling water to a certain extent, it is not recommended for prolonged exposure to high temperatures. Boiling water may cause PVC to soften and deform over time, compromising its structural integrity.
