The additives that make PVCs flexible and cause other desired physical features include plasticizers and stabilizers, among others, and they are usually reinforced with glass-fiber mats, polyester or scrim. PVC sheets can be glued to the substrate, but a more common way is to secure them to the substrate with fasteners.
