Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) comes in two basic forms:

Rigid PVC is used in manufacturing:

  • profile applications such as doors and windows;
  • bottles;
  • non-food packaging;
  • food-covering sheets, and;
  • cards (such as bank or membership cards);

Flexible PVC

It can be made softer and more flexible by the addition of plasticizers, the most widely used being phthalates. In this form, it is also used in

  • plumbing,
  • electrical cable insulation,
  • imitation leather,
  • flooring,
  • signage,
  • phonograph records,
  • inflatable products, and
  • other applications where it replaces rubber.
