How is vinyl benefiting society?
Vinyl has many important, even life-saving, uses. As examples, it is the material of choice for blood bags and IV tubing, widely used in tamper-resistant packaging, the most commonly used wire insulating material, and a major source of piping to deliver safe drinking water. Vinyl protects health and the environment at an affordable cost. Vinyl windows and siding are among the top, energy-saving remodeling choices for homeowners across the nation. Vinyl flooring and wall coverings, familiar to homeowners, are widely used in health care facilities because they are tough and can be cleaned easily, helping to prevent the spread of disease organisms. All in all, vinyl brings value to life.
