What is Vinyl?

I was browsing www.vinyl.org the other day and I came across an overview of vinyl which you can read for yourself here.

Sometimes vinyl gets bad press, but I think we lose sight of how important vinyl is to our daily lives. It really is an amazing material that is economical to produce (it actually takes less energy and less oil to make PVC than other alternatives) so it is a cost leader. It has properties making it durable and flexible so it is long lasting. It is also highly recyclable.

Some of the concerns about vinyl are far outweighed by its benefits. This is why
RNR Plastics uses it to fabricate durable flexible packaging and sign holders and we believe PVC will be around for a long time to come!
