PVC, also known as vinyl, is not only the most used material for disposable plastics-based medical devices. Hospital environments around the world also benefit from the many qualities that vinyl offers. In the video a vinyl flooring manufacturer explains how vinyl meets all functional requirements in hospitals. Especially in wet laboratories vinyl flooring is a popular choice. The material is non-slip and can withstand continued exposure to water and chemicals. Another important area is clean rooms for DNA or microbiological research where vinyl also meets all the strict requirements related to hygiene, durability and safety.
