Interestingly, his popularity PVC shall not his “plumbing” properties, and market expansion of plastic windows. When you need a change of window frames, install the cornice, new sills, in most cases it comes to plastic products. Due to rapid growth in consumption of PVC in the industry has felt the lack of it, respectively, are increased imports. For some time to import PVC became quite profitable: the duty on raw materials was higher than on manufactured products from the raw material, and local manufacturers of pipes and profiles has become very difficult to compete with importers of finished products.
Consumption of PVC pipes in Canada increased, the geography of production, and today the Canadian manufacturer in a much more comfortable than the importer. Substantial fee of 15% on imported PVC, the complexity of logistics processes makes European products very expensive (especially in non-European parts of the country), and allows domestic producers to keep prices at a level that allows us not only to earn a living, but also to invest in expanding production. The average investment in a business of 100 million dollars, and without a good margin business simply can not take care of the implementation of innovation and acquisition of new equipment.

PEX and polypropylene

Some time in Canada massively used PVC pipes for the construction of sewerage networks. This material has several advantages, but also causes some problems. When not only in urban homes, but also in country houses and cottages were constantly use hot water and household chemical compounds, PVC fittings showed a lack of heat and chemical resistance. Despite the low cost of polyvinyl chloride, to replace the pipe coming from the more reliable materials – PEX and polypropylene.

Buying land for construction, it makes sense to immediately determine the cost of future home, including the construction of engineering networks. Why give up the conveniences of unwise, but it makes sense to save for something else.

PVC : its merits and scope

PVC today is perhaps the most sought-after material for the production of sanitary ware is a polyvinyl chloride (PVC). For the first time PVC was obtained in 1835, but intensive laboratory studies of this material began to be carried out only after 40 years as its production technology was patented only in 1913 by German scientist Fritz Klatt. In 30-ies of the 20 th century in Western Europe and the U.S. starts mass production of PVC, and shortly after the Second World War, from this material are beginning to produce pipes, showers, flooring, window frames, profiles, and electrical insulation of wires and cables etc.

The undoubted advantage of PVC fittings are their Flame and chemical resistance to various acids, solvents, alkalis, in addition, PVC products are resistant to weathering, non-toxic and are characterized by long service life. Thanks to these properties, for example, PVC pipes are widely used in the construction of various industrial plants and civil structures are used for external and internal drainage. The advantage of using PVC fitting in the home is, above all, that with their help is very convenient to make installation bath kaldewei, Roca or any other manufacturers, sinks, radiators, such an installation requires no welding and fast.

Polyvinyl chloride

PVC is produced by polymerization of a mixture of ethylene and chlorine, obtained from oil and salt, respectively. The resulting mixture was named compound, which consists of carbon, hydrogen and chlorine, which can consider the group PVC thermoplastic. Pure PVC is not used, because it is fragile and termonestabilnym material to improve its properties in the compound, as a rule, impose additional components: thermostabilizers (lead compounds, a mixture of calcium and zinc), pigments (pigments), plasticizers, which increase the elasticity of PVC in sub-zero temperatures, and fillers to enhance the processing of the material.
