PVC was completely avoided in the Sydney 2000 Olympic stadium seating and plumbing. The multi-use arena had no PVC in the seating, cabling, floor coverings, wall finishes or plumbing. If it can be done at the Olympics, it can be done anywhere!

This international database is intended to help anyone from do-it-yourself enthusiasts to construction companies track down alternatives to PVC products.

This Greenpeace website shows that for most, if not all, uses of PVC in construction, there are easily available alternatives supplied by a range of companies. In many cases, these products are distributed worldwide. The database can be searched by product and by country to locate suitable suppliers for your needs.
