Polyvinyl Chloride Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- PVC
- Poly(vinyl Chloride)
- Ethene, Chloro-, Homopolymer
Polyvinyl chloride supplier for Malaysian pipe, profile, cable, flooring, coated-fabric and plastics converters. Commonly called PVC, this thermoplastic polymer is purchased as base resin, paste resin, dry blend or formulated compound according to the conversion method and finished-product requirement.
Commercial options include suspension PVC powder for extrusion and compounding, emulsion or paste resin for plastisols, rigid dry blends and compounds, and flexible pellets. Resin selection uses polymerisation grade, K-value range, particle characteristics and processing behaviour, while compounds also require hardness, colour and additive-package requirements.
PVC serves rigid pipe, fittings and construction profiles, cable insulation and sheathing, flooring, sheet, synthetic leather, coated fabrics and dipped products. The resin or compound must suit extrusion, injection moulding, calendaring, coating or plastisol processing rather than being chosen by the PVC name alone.
Send the required resin or compound grade, form, specification, processing method, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Polyvinyl Chloride grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Suspension PVC resin | white free-flowing powder | — | General extrusion, calendaring and compounding for rigid pipe, fittings, profiles, sheet and flexible products where a suspension polymerisation grade is specified. | Confirm the resin grade and pack format with the quotation. |
| Emulsion and paste PVC resin | fine white powder for plastisol or paste preparation | — | Plastisols, coatings, synthetic leather, flooring, wall coverings and dipped products requiring emulsion or paste-resin particle and viscosity characteristics. | Confirm the paste-resin grade and pack format with the quotation. |
| Rigid PVC compound | dry blend, granules or pellets | — | Pipe, conduit, fittings, profiles, siding and rigid sheet where stabiliser, impact-modifier, lubricant and processing requirements are defined by the converter. | Confirm the compound specification and pack format with the quotation. |
| Flexible PVC compound | natural or coloured granules or pellets | — | Cable insulation, sheathing, flexible profiles, tubing, film, flooring and other applications requiring a stated hardness, plasticiser system and processing method. | Confirm the hardness, colour and pack format with the quotation. |

Polyvinyl Chloride applications
Safety and handling
Keep resin and compounds sealed, dry and protected from contamination and excessive heat. Control dust when handling powder grades and follow the safety information for the selected resin or compound.
Common questions about polyvinyl chloride
Are polyvinyl chloride and PVC the same polymer?
Yes. PVC is the standard abbreviation for polyvinyl chloride, also written poly(vinyl chloride). Commercial products still differ by polymerisation method, molecular-weight or K-value range, additive package and supplied form.
What is the difference between suspension and emulsion PVC resin?
Suspension PVC is a general-purpose powder used widely in extrusion, calendaring and compounding. Emulsion or paste PVC is a finer resin used to prepare plastisols for coating, dipping, synthetic leather and flooring. State the processing route so the correct resin family is quoted.
What is the difference between rigid and flexible PVC?
Rigid PVC is formulated without the plasticiser level used to create flexible grades and is common in pipe, profiles and fittings. Flexible PVC compounds include a plasticiser system and are specified by properties such as hardness for cable, tubing, film and related applications.
Which PVC grade is used for cable insulation and sheathing?
Flexible PVC compounds are widely used for cable insulation and sheathing. State hardness, colour, electrical and flame-performance requirements, processing method and any applicable customer specification so the compound can be matched.
Which PVC resin is used for plastisol and glove dipping?
Emulsion or paste PVC resin is used to prepare plastisols for dipping, coating, synthetic leather and selected glove processes. Provide the paste viscosity, particle characteristics, plasticiser system and process method required by the formulation.
What specifications matter when buying PVC resin?
State suspension or emulsion grade, polymerisation or K-value range, apparent density, particle size, volatile matter, plasticiser absorption or paste viscosity, and the intended conversion process. Compound enquiries should also define hardness, colour and performance needs.
What details are needed for a polyvinyl chloride quotation?
Provide the resin or compound grade, powder, paste, dry-blend or pellet form, specification, quantity, processing method and delivery location. Mention preferred packing and document requirements so applicable options can be confirmed.
