Case Studies

This case study collection demonstrates the diverse use of vinyl materials in residential and commercial construction. Read on to see how architects and designers choose vinyl to bring their plans to reality.



  • PVC Pipes Keep Aquatic Life Healthy
  • A city can require hundreds of miles of municipal piping. By this standard, the Newport Aquarium of Newport, Ky., with nearly 200 miles of piping, could qualify as a small city. The piping circulates one million gallons of water each day to support 7,000 animals and 500 species. The health of every creature depends on the water that runs through miles of piping. For this, PVC is the material of choice.

  • Built for Comfort--Vinyl Furniture with a Difference
  • Upscale vinyl furniture that looks like wood and is molded into classic styles helps long-term care facilities seem less institutional and still meet the special requirements of the residents.

  • "OFF THE WALL 3" Turns Old Billboards into New Works of Art
  • To celebrate Earth Day, Peter Schulberg, owner of the Los Angeles Eco-LogicalArt gallery (www.eco-logicalart.org), will host OFF THE WALL 3, a unique, indoor and outdoor, fine art exhibition in which discarded vinyl billboards are transformed into spectacular works of art.
