Rigid PVC compounds

Rigid PVC, rigid uPVC (unplasticized PVC) or PVCu has many technical benefits, it is strong, durable, and stable with good thermal properties. It aligns itself to a wide range of applications due to it being low cost, usable both indoors and externally (due to its resistance to corrosion), easy to bond with glue, adhesive or solvents and can be produced in different colours and finishes. These attributes make PVC one of the most frequently used plastic to be extruded. 

Dugdale has an accomplished reputation as a rigid PVC compound manufacturer. This standing is a direct result of the successful use of Dugdale’s rigid PVC compounds in a wide variety of industries and applications.

Dugdale’s standard range of DuCaVin rigid PVC compounds have been used in many products -  clear and coloured profiles, roofing sheets, packaging, bottles, containers, window frames and accessories, conduits, trunking, roller shutters, curtain track, tile edge trim, cellular skin, pipes, tubes, cavity closers, rainwater fittings, electrical plugs and sockets, computer housings and technical mouldings.

This list of applications in which Dugdale’s rigid PVC compounds are used is constantly growing and with it Dugdale’s prominence in the market as a rigid PVC manufacturer.

Dugdale’s experience with rigid PVC compounds greatly benefits customers as the team’s depth of knowledge of developing and producing rigid PVC compounds can be applied to other industries and applications.
