The physical characteristics of VCP do not change over time.

Locally sourced clays and shales mixed, extruded, and fired to approximately 2000° (F) result in an inert ceramic material. The VCP of the 21st century has exceptional strength, abrasion, and corrosion resistance.  And because it is ceramic, these characteristics don’t change or degrade over time.
