PVC pioneer Lonseal brings polymer engineering expertise to fast-growing economies
From the roof over one’s head to the tiles under one’s feet, company’s array of plastic offerings include custom-made, antislip flooring sheets and tiles, water proofing sheets, wall covering and PVC films for industrial materials
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a durable and long-lasting plastic material with widespread uses, has revolutionised construction. Its high flexibility, weatherproof attributes and impact strength make it a versatile polymer ideal for building materials.
With Asia-Pacific dominating the multibillion dollar building materials market – globally forecast to reach US$810 billion by 2018 – Japanese PVC pioneer Lonseal brings more than 80 years of versatile polymer engineering expertise to the region’s fast-growing economies.
Lonseal introduced polyvinyl chloride processing in Japan back in 1947. Today, the company manufactures and sells PVC sheets with applications across diverse industries such as transport, aerospace and information technology.
From the roof over one’s head to the tiles under one’s feet, Lonseal’s array of plastic offerings include custom-made, antislip flooring sheets, water proofing sheets, wall covering and PVC films for industrial materials.
“Our key to success is simple – stable and high-calibre quality control, which differentiates us from competitors,” says CEO Susumu Kadowaki. “Understanding customer needs and product differentiation are also important.”
