Quick tips

There is no single average price for uPVC profiles, as the cost depends on the profile shape, length, size, quality and thickness...
Some PVC profiles are stock items available in standard sizes, while others are made as custom extrusions upon request with their own tooling and material requirements. Because of this, prices can vary significantly from one profile to another.

At MKM Extrusions, we offer a wide range of stock PVC profiles in the colours black or white, available in standard pack quantities

The main difference is that uPVC is rigid PVC without added plasticisers, while PVC can refer to other forms...
PVC stands for polyvinyl chloride and is used in different forms depending on the application. When plasticisers are added, the material becomes more flexible. When they are not added, it is referred to as uPVC, with the “u” standing for unplasticised. At MKM Extrusions, we work with both rigid and flexible PVC depending on the profile and application. However, all of our plastic profiles

PVC stands for polyvinyl chloride.
PVC is a widely used type of plastic that can be manufactured in different forms, depending on the application. In extrusion, it is used to create continuous plastic profiles with a consistent cross-section, such as trims, channels, strips and tubing.

At MKM Extrusions, we work with PVC to produce a wide range of plastic profiles. Most of our stock range is made from external grade rigid PVC, while some selected profiles are also available in a flexible PVC.

uPVC trim is a plastic trim made from rigid PVC, usually used to describe profiles with a consistent extruded shape...
At MKM Extrusions, we generally refer to this material as external grade rigid PVC. This makes it clearer what type of material is being used and avoids confusion, as people may mean different things when they use the term uPVC.
