Swish cellular PVC represents an environmentally responsible use of plastics. As recommended by the European Commission, UK Government and the PVC industry's Vinyl 2010 initiative, Swish cellular PVC does not contain lead. Swish takes its environmental responsibilities very seriously. We have a continuous programme that monitors our production efficiency and ensures that we minimise energy consumption and all forms of waste.

Sustainability

In early 2006 Swish Building Products completed an audit of some of its cellular PVC products that were installed over thirty years ago. The condition of the profiles was such that they could be expected to last a further thirty years before replacement becomes an issue. This projected 60year+ lifespan has important implications for the sustainability of newbuild and refurbishment in both the public and private sectors.

 

Swish supplies a number of markets via specialist Independent Plastics Stockists. The Swish Approved Installer Scheme caters for the domestic refurbishment market. In addition Swish specialises in meeting the needs of the private and social housing specifier and contractor. Swish aims to provide sustainable products and collaborative working relationships to deliver best value.

Swish extrude cellular PVC into light, strong, weather resistant boards that will not warp, flake, crack or peel and are therefore ideal long life replacements for traditional low-grade soft timber components. A key characteristic of Swish cellular PVC is that it will not suffer from 'pinking' discolouration.
