Polypropylene vs PVC

A brief look at some environmental issues.

There are significant intrinsic differences between polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polypropylene (PP).

Polypropylene is one of the most neutral plastics, containing only two elements: carbon (C) and hydrogen (H).

PVC by comparison contains about 30% by weight, of the element Chlorine (Cl) in its basic structure.

Polypropylene ( PP ) and PVC are both 100% recyclable

PP is a safer, environmentally friendly alternative to PVC
