MECHANICAL PP-RCT pipe systems. Outstanding performance over many years.

MECHANICAL PP-RCT piping systems have a number of outstanding properties that make them a first-class choice. The special composition of our pipes ensures superior stability to withstand even the most demanding conditions.

Our piping systems are outstanding in workmanship, performance and ease of maintenance, setting standards that make your systems reliable and efficient in the long term.

  • Low maintenance costs: The robust construction and chemical resistance minimize deposits, resulting in low maintenance costs and long-term stability.
  • Consistent performance: MECHANICAL PP-RCT pipes maintain their efficiency over time, resulting in stable operating conditions and minimal downtime.
  • No increase in pumping energy: Thanks to the smooth inner surface and low friction losses, our pipes provide efficient flow, resulting in lower operating costs and energy-efficient system operation.
  • No deposits: Resistance to scaling makes MECHANICAL PP-RCT pipes the optimal choice for long-term, cost-effective piping systems.

MECHANICAL PP-RCT pipe systems. The durable, robust choice.

The durability of MECHANICAL PP-RCT piping systems is based on various features of the developed raw material. The improved structure improves heat resistance and stability. At the same time, PP-RCT pipes have a high chemical resistance and the linear expansion is much smaller than with conventional PP-R pipes. In addition, the smooth inner surfaces protect against deposits and rust or corrosion are not an issue.

  • Long service life: The durable design of MECHANICAL PP-RCT pipes means that they will function reliably for decades. An investment that pays off in the long term.
  • Resistance to environmental influences: Whether heat or cold – the temperature resistance of our pipes ensures consistent performance in all environmental scenarios.
  • Minimized downtime: The consistent performance of MECHANICAL PP-RCT pipes helps to minimize unexpected downtime, which increases operational efficiency.
  • Robust structure: The special composition of our pipes ensures superior structural stability to withstand the most demanding conditions, enabling consistent and stable performance.
