PVC shutters are made from polyvinyl chloride. It's a type of plastic material that is well-known for being a super versatile material with excellent durability.

Our plastic window shutters, or as we like to call them, Faux Wood Shutters, are an affordable and stylish alternative to traditional wooden shutters. Not only do they mimic the classic look of wood, but they also offer some unique benefits of their own.

If you're considering choosing Polyvinyl shutters, here are the benefits of PVC shutters:

1. Durability and longevity
   Our PVC shutters are tough and durable. They can withstand high humidity and temperature changes without warping or cracking. This makes them a lasting investment for your home.
2. Low maintenance
   Forget about time-consuming upkeep. Plastic shutters are easy to clean and maintain, requiring just a simple wipe-down every now and again to keep them looking their best.
3. 100% waterproof
