Vinyl Shutters Resist Termites and Stand Up to Weather
Unlike natural wood, vinyl shutters hold up against two of the biggest threats to a home’s exterior – termites and harsh weather. The synthetic vinyl material deters termites while also withstanding all types of weather conditions.
Vinyl shutters are molded from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) resin for a durable, resilient finished product. The tough vinyl construction provides optimal longevity and requires minimal maintenance. Vinyl resists chips, cracks, stains, and other damage.
Benefits of Durable Vinyl Shutters
What makes vinyl ideal for combating termites and extreme weather?
Termite Resistance
Termites avoid the unappetizing vinyl:
- Manufactured material contains no cellulose
- Toxic to termites – they can’t digest it
- Prevent infestation and damage to home
Hot and Cold Extremes
Vinyl endures scorching and sub-freezing temperatures:
- Won’t become brittle or crack in cold winters
- Doesn’t soften or warp in Australian summers
- Maintains integrity despite temperature swings
Heavy Rains and Wind
Vinyl withstands pelting precipitation:
- Sheet rain simply rolls off vinyl
- Stands up to gale force winds
- Prevents water intrusion around windows
Coastal Conditions
Impervious to salt, moisture and humidity:
- Salt air won’t leach colors or degrade
- Resilient despite high seaside humidity
- Protects window frames from elements
Vinyl shutters withstand Australia’s toughest termites and extreme weather conditions – ensuring lasting beauty and durability.
