Plastics Sector - Construction and Architecture

Reliability and long service are the hallmarks of successful building products. Solvay has more than half a century of experience, testing and innovation to support its plastics materials.

Construction elements
Solvay products are widely used for external frames, sidings, windows, profiles and indoor elements.

Architectural membranes

PVC-coated fibreglass and polyester fabrics are used for dimensionally stable structures, having good light transmission and weather resistance. Such large area coverings are ideal for sports stadiums and pools, tented villages and markets.

Plumbing

Solvay plastics play an increasing role as replacements for traditional materials across a range of plumbing applications.

Weather protection

Solvay film coatings are used to improve the long term weather- and UV-resistance of sidings and metal facings in sunny or unfavourable climates environments. 

Solar panels
The excellent weathering properties of such coatings also make them ideal for solar panels.
