SWISH GUARANTEE

Swish recently extended their guarantee to 15 years in a move that shows the company’s confidence in the performance of its non-lead formulation. This unique 15 Year Guarantee covers the colourfastness and durability of Swish branded, white cellular PVC profiles, and is backed by years of manufacturing experience and product testing.

NON LEAD FORMULATION

The Swish formulation does not contain lead and will not discolour. Discolouration of some PVC roofline products has been a major problem for manufacturers, specifiers and installers. The evidence suggests “pinking” is caused by reactions between some formulation ingredients and the lead that is used as a stabiliser in most systems currently available. Most lead formulations are not affected but there is no test to predict whether a lead-based formulation will “pink” or not.

ENVIRONMENT

Swish cellular PVC is a safe, inert material that represents an environmentally responsible use of plastics. In line with the European Commission Green Paper on PVC (July 2000) Swish uses a non-lead stabiliser in its formulations.
Swish also operates an environmental management system, based upon ISO14001.
