3. Definition of Plastic-steel PVC & Origin of our product name

01. Plastic-steel PVC is the kind of PVC material mainly applied for windows, which have high requirements for strength and UV resistance, and should be pure, 100% new, rather than recycled or doped.

02. Since construction formwork has strict requirements for strength, so the New & Pure Plastic-steel PVC has been proved to be the most qualified and the best raw material choice for PVC formworks, since 10+ years ago. This is a well-known point in this industry.

03. Our product uses “New & Pure Plastic-steel PVC” as the only main raw material, which accounts for more than 96% (the rest 3~4% is for necessary additives).
