Mapping of PVC in Denmark 2018

Use and waste management of PVC in Denmark has been mapped for planning the efforts in the PVC area, 2018-2021.

The report provides an overview of potentially harmful additives in PVC, PVC products on the Danish market, as well as waste treatment of these. Furthermore, the current disposal of PVC waste, the possibilities of replacing problematic additives in PVC, as well as the possibilities of replacing PVC with alternative materials in different products. During the review, the environmental, health, and technical and economic benefits and disadvantages of substitution are highlighted. The report forms part of the academic foundation for the organization of the forward-looking PVC effort, 2018-2021, and therefore contains a scheme of possible initiatives.
