Vinyl is a plastic-based alternative for fencing instead of wood or chain-link type fences.

There are multiple benefits for using vinyl instead of wood or metal. ‍ Vinyl is a synthetic material made from ethylene and chlorine (both of which are natural substances). When combined, these substances form Polyvinyl Chloride, also known as PVC, which is also commonly referred to as “Vinyl.” Today, Vinyl is the 2nd largest manufactured and sold plastic resin in the entire world. Vinyl is also referred to as the “infrastructure plastic” because 76% of Vinyl is used for building and construction purposes. This is a big reason why vinyl is used for fencing.

Experts say that vinyl is nearly 5 times stronger than wood. Vinyl is also very flexible, which makes it a good choice with the extreme weather conditions such as strong winds, rain, and snow. Wood fences are more likely to break in such weather. Vinyl fencing is also easy to wash, all you need is soap and water. You will never have to stain or paint a vinyl fence because the color does not fade or wear out. ‍ - Resistant to moisture and humidity - Can be made in a variety of different colors to match your home - Vinyl is an eco-friendly substance compared to other materials – it requires less energy to make and releases lower emissions into the environment - Cheaper than wood or chain-link fences in the long-run - Vinyl does not rot and is bug resistant - Vinyl is free of harmful chemicals
