The environmental impacts of using PVC challenge the growth of the PVC market. The emission of toxic fumes emitted during the manufacturing, use, and disposal of PVC raises environmental concerns. The manufacturing of PVC consumes a high amount of chlorine gas, due to which a large number of hazardous gases as by-products are emitted during the whole PVC lifecycle. PVC resists natural degradation. It stays in the environment for a long time, contributing to global pollution. Due to the harmful effects of PVC on the environment, PVC packaging has been banned or restricted in a number of countries around the world, such as Canada, Spain, South Korea, and the Czech Republic. Some U.S. cities, such as Rahway, NJ and Glen Cove, NY, have prohibited the use of PVC in food packaging or utensils. The ill effects of PVC restrain the growth of the Poly-Vinyl Chloride market. Poly-vinyl chloride manufacturing companies are increasingly implementing the new "molecular orientation" technology to improve the physical and mechanical properties of the PVC produced. Molecular orientation is a manufacturing method that increases the flexibility and resistivity of PVC from fatigue and impact. Under certain pressure, temperature, and speed conditions, molecular technology aligns the randomly arranged molecules in a normal PVC in the same direction. The new alignment improves the strength and ductility of the PVC pipes, creating new PVC-O pipes. For instance, Molecor uses molecular orientation to produce TOM® PVC-O pipes. These pipes are resistant to low temperatures and have high resistance to cracks or impacts. In October 2021, Oldcastle Infrastructure, a US-based company providing infrastructure services acquired National Pipe & Plastics Inc. for an undisclosed amount. The acquisition added PVC pipe portfolio to Oldcastle Infrastructure and enables it to offer integrated solutions to its customers. National Pipe & Plastics Inc. is a US-based PVC pipes company.
