Spanish term

tira en pvp

Spanish to English Marketing Textiles / Clothing / Fashion fashion design
What does pvp mean in this context please?
Chaqueta listada de rayas (blanco, gris, negro) con detalle de tira en pvp, cuello pico, bolsillos con cierre de cremallera y manga larga.
Could it be a typo, that should be pvc perhaps or does pvp mean something other than price in Spanish or have they perhaps used pvp in English in a Spanish text and I can't find the definition anywhere?

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you.

PVC strip/trimming

I think it's most likely to be a typo for PVC, as I can't find any mention of pvp, in either languages, in a clothing context.
Examples of PVC strip and trimming:

agree neilmac : I don't see how it could be Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in this context...
