What are PVC Mouldings?
Trim pieces known as PVC mouldings are composed of the synthetic plastic material polyvinyl chloride. Similar to conventional wood mouldings, they are employed as finishing touches in architecture and construction, but they are more resilient to environmental influences.
They can be used both indoors and outdoors and available in a broad range of shapes and profiles, from simple baseboards to elaborate crown mouldings or panel mouldings.
