It is rigid PVC (suspension type resin) that is used in upholstery, a product chosen for its excellent surface finish, adequate mechanical properties, and easy maintenance and cleaning. Plasticized PVC is an elegant and comfortable alternative for real leathers, and is valued in this particular application for its sturdiness, excellent surface finish, and resistance both to stains and wear and tear. The vast range of designs which it can be used to produce, due to the ease with which it can be imprinted with motifs or decorated films, is an additional bonus.

The extrusion or co-extrusion of profiles and panels made with suspension-type resins is used to manufacture upholstery products.
