uPVC stands for Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride which means it does not contain additional plasticisers which would make the profile flexible. In the window and double glazing industries additional stabilisers are sometimes added to uPVC, this does not apply to the uPVC which we use. We have a blog post dedicated to the difference between PVC and uPVC.

Our Plastic Angle Trim is manufactured from uPVC, which means it does not contain added plasticisers which would give it flexibility. The ‘u’ in the abbreviation uPVC indicates it is unplasticised. However we do not use the type of uPVC which is sometimes used in the double glazing and window industries which sometimes has added stabilisers. Our uPVC angle trims are rigid profiles and can be used in external applications. See our blog explaining the difference between PVC and uPVC.
