uPVC is 100% recyclable, ensuring that even after many years of use, it can be repurposed into new products, contributing to a more sustainable and circular economy. Additionally, in facilities with the latest technology, uPVC can be transformed into usable energy, highlighting its versatility and eco-friendly nature.
Only 43% of uPVC comes from non-renewable petroleum sources, with the remaining 57% derived from salt, a renewable resource. One of the key environmental advantages of uPVC is its ability to reduce the demand for wood, helping to protect forests—one of our most important natural resources. By choosing uPVC, we contribute to a more sustainable future, preserving our environment for generations to come.
uPVC incorporates chlorine in a way that is environmentally safe and secure. Once transformed into uPVC, chlorine is locked into the material, ensuring it remains stable. Even at the end of its lifecycle, whether recycled or repurposed, uPVC continues to maintain its environmental safety, making it an ideal choice for eco-conscious projects.
uPVC, being a chlorine-based material, has a natural self-extinguishing property. While it can burn when exposed to a continuous fire, it immediately extinguishes once the fire source is removed, offering enhanced fire resistance.
Extensive testing has proven that uPVC is a safe material and does not pose an increased fire hazard. The gases released during the burning of uPVC are no more harmful than those emitted by other common materials in a fire, ensuring it meets stringent safety standards.
