Program Topics:
Around the world, polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is the most commonly used plastic in the construction industry. PVC is used in numerous applications including roofing, flooring, siding, windows, and decking. Construction materials made of PVC are tough, long lasting, require little maintenance, are esthetically pleasing and provide excellent fire resistance. Does such extensive use of PVC materials impose a burden on the environment? Can PVC based products be recycled? How does PVC behave in a fire? These and many other questions will be addressed during this one hour presentation on “The Facts about PVC and the Environment”!
