Benefits

Non-corrosive System Solutions

Due to our pre-insulated piping systems, the installation will be corrosion-free the entire lifespan of the installation (at least 25 years). You no longer need to worry about leaks or serious accidents.

High Efficiency

Smooth inner surfaces guarantee good pressure loss characteristics and no encrustation on the internal surfaces of the pipe. The low heat conductivity of plastics helps improve efficiency.

Low Installation Costs

We offer you system solutions designed for specific applications. For each application, we provide the appropriate jointing technology to ensure low installation times and reduced downtime costs.

Safe Production

Food and beverage produced in a safe way is key to ensure good quality. Contaminations need to be avoided as well as leakages which can damage the environment, health, safety, and quality.
