As any other material, before being sold to the end customer it must undergo different <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plasticol.it\/en\/plastic-extrusion-process\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>processing stages<\/strong><\/a> that transform the little beads of plastic into those very useful objects we see in our houses every day.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.plasticol.it\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Plasticol<\/strong><\/a> is one of <strong>the main manufacturer of PVC in Italy<\/strong>. The business\u2019s headquarters are built on a 7000 square meters area in <strong>Samarate<\/strong>, a small industrial city located in Lombardy. Our company has 12 different production lines, one of which is destined to the manufacture of<strong> extruded PVC products<\/strong>. Let\u2019s find out the characteristics of this material, where it is used, and how it is produced.<\/p>\n<h2>Extruded PVC products: characteristics<\/h2>\n<p><strong>PVC<\/strong> stands for <strong>polyvinyl chloride<\/strong>, and it\u2019s a plastic material known for its many <strong>different properties<\/strong> that make it perfect for many industrial sectors as the building one, for example. PVC comes in <strong>two different forms<\/strong>, a <strong>rigid<\/strong> one which is also the most common, and a <strong>flexible<\/strong> one.<\/p>\n<p>Its <strong>basic characteristics<\/strong> can be <strong>manipulated<\/strong> through the use of some <strong>additives<\/strong>. In fact, PVC can be transformed into a <strong>fire safe plastic<\/strong>, which comes in handy in those fields in which safety is a really important matter, but it can also be made more elastic with the use of certain chemical products.<\/p>\n<p>Generally speaking, PVC is <strong>resistant to high mechanical stress<\/strong>, it can bear environments in which <strong>acids, bases, fats, alcohols, and salts<\/strong> are massively present, and it is also a <strong>good insulator<\/strong>. As we already stated before, even with all these high-quality characteristics this material is <strong>really cheap<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h2>Extruded PVC products: production process and uses<\/h2>\n<p><strong>PVC<\/strong> originally comes <strong>in the form of tiny beads<\/strong> that are <strong>shaped into different objects<\/strong> through the <strong>extrusion process<\/strong>. The beads are pushed into a barrel, thanks to a rotating screw; here the high temperature, caused by the friction of the material rubbing on itself and the barrel, melts them. The melted plastic is then pushed into a mold that gives it its final shape.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PVC can be molded into cables, gaskets and plastic profiles<\/strong>. These objects can be used as <strong>electric cables<\/strong>, <strong>seals<\/strong> for pipes or as a <strong>protection<\/strong> to insulate the interior of our houses from the outside as it happens with the outline of window structures.<\/p>\n<p>Feel free to <strong>contact Plasticol<\/strong> for any <strong>business inquiries<\/strong>, for an <strong>estimate<\/strong>, or to learn more about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.plasticol.it\/en\/products\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>collateral services<\/strong><\/a> that our company offers to its clients.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Location:<\/strong><br \/>\n<span style=\"line-height: 1.7em\">Via San Carlo 35<\/span><br \/>\n21017- Samarate (VA)<br \/>\n<strong>Phone:\u00a0<\/strong>(+39) 0331 234 212<br \/>\n<strong>Fax:<\/strong>\u00a0(+39) 0331 235 108<br \/>\n<strong>Email:<\/strong>\u00a0info@plasticol.it<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PVC PVC is a plastic material used to build many different products.
