PVC to Deliver Sustainable Housing and Construction in Europe

PVC or vinyl products are essential to Europe’s construction and infrastructure, widely used in windows, flooring, cables and piping systems. They deliver durable, cost-effective and low-maintenance solutions while contributing to energy-efficient buildings.

With the majority of PVC used in construction and produced in Europe, the PVC value chain is a strong part of the EU industrial base. Supported by the VinylPlus sustainability certifications, PVC combines performance, affordability and circular potential.

To fully realise this contribution to affordable housing, coherent EU policies are needed to remove regulatory barriers, support recycling and reduce investment risks. VinylPlus® stands ready to support European authorities in housing and construction initiatives.
