I got a chance to work with cellular PVC. You can now purchase sheets of this from Home Depot.

You use normal woodworking tools on this stuff. In the video I am using a couple different feeds and speeds.
On the pockets I am milling at 100IPM 11500RPM. On the profile cuts I am doing 70IPM and 10000RPM.
Im using a standard two flute upspiral 1/8" router bit.
Cellular PVC is not cheap. I paid almost $100 for a 4' x 8' x 3/8" sheet.

Very nice, thanks for the info.
That's the material with the trade name 'Sintra'?
No its not Sintra. It's Azek. Slightly different characteristics from Sintra. Sintra has harder skin than Azek. The interior makeup is a little different as well.
They are both Cellular PVC. I have also heard it called compressed PVC.
