Marine
Plastics are resistant to saltwater, UV, chemicals, sunshine and corrosion, making them perfect for marine applications.
Environmental and Safety:
Considering the total carbon footprint, including costs of raw materials, manufacture, transport, fabricate, install, maintain, plastics compare favorably with more traditional materials. Also, plastics are safer to handle and install. When you consider that most plastics are readily recyclable, they can become the most environmentally responsible and safest choice for many demanding marine applications.
