What Does UPVC Stand For?

UPVC stands for Unplasticized Poly Vinyl Chloride

UPVC, or Unplasticized Poly Vinyl Chloride, is a rigid, high-performance thermoplastic used widely in construction and manufacturing. Unlike standard PVC, UPVC does not contain plasticizers, which enhances its durability, strength, and resistance to environmental factors such as moisture, UV rays, and chemicals. Commonly utilized in window frames, doors, piping, and various architectural applications, UPVC is valued for its low maintenance requirements, energy efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
