Why +Vantage Vinyl™?
For Shintech, the vinyl industry needs to come together as a united front to make the world of plastics better, and that starts at the top of the supply chain with the resin producers. It’s important to Shintech to show their customers and the downstream members that sustainability is important at every level within the vinyl value chain.
