In recent years, the bulk polymer PVC (polyvinylchloride) has been the target for attack by environmental groups. While the emphasis of these attacks has been on PVC packaging, the PVC pipe industry in Europe has also had to endure criticism for the supposed negative influence of both the raw materials and the finished products on the environment. The European PVC industry has not taken this criticism lightly; it has studied the situation carefully. In particular, the plastic pipe industry, united in The European Plastic Pipe and Fittings Association (TEPPFA), has been active in providing information and advice concerning the limitation of possible negative effects of plastics and, in particular, PVC piping systems on the environment.
