What Is PVC Material?
PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a widely produced polymer or synthetic resin made from the polymerisation of vinyl chloride. It’s a sheet made of plastic composite that’s extremely durable in its purest form. The first thing that comes to mind when PVC is mentioned is pipes and plumbing material. However, PVC is also an extremely versatile material, one that is used for flooring, cabinets, countertops and more.
The term PVC stands for Poly-Vinyl Chloride and it might sound familiar. That's because it's a widely used material for making pipes especially for the ones used in the bathroom. However, with the growing popularity of modular kitchens, PVC is also earning popularity as go-to material for making kitchen cabinets.
There are two types of PVC materials used for making kitchen cabinets: PVC hollow boards and PVC foam boards. As the name suggests, PVC hollow boards are hollow from within while the PVC foam boards are more sturdy inside.
Advantages of PVC Boards
Easy installation: PVC Boards are ready to fit in boards that are lightweight and easy to install. Furthermore, these boards do not require additional fixing.
Requires zero maintenance: PVC boards are very easy to clean and do not get stained easily. They are even termite-resistant, waterproof, oil-free, and anti-corrosive.
Economical: When it comes to the price point, PVC Boards are comparatively cheaper as opposed to plywood or other materials thus making it a lucrative option over others.
Disadvantages of PVC Boards
Low resistance to fires: Kitchens are the place where furniture comes in close contact with fire and heat. The PVC Boards, however, show low fire resistance and thermal resistance.
