WHAT ARE PPR PIPES? FEATURES AND APPLICATIONS

PPR pipes (Polypropylene Random Copolymer pipes) are a type of plastic pipe made from a blend of polypropylene and ethylene copolymers. PPR is a high-technology plastic pipe, which is modern plumbing’s important solution when matched to cold galvanized pipes for all hot water systems. PPR Pipe and fittings are made with high-grade raw materials. It is one of the essential plastic pipe products which are used for extreme tempratures ranging from -20°C to 95°C. Mostly these pipes are green or white in color.These Pipes are made with a variety of fittings, accessories, and replacement components and each pipe diameter has its own set of attachments.

FEATURES OF PPR PIPES

Low Thermal Conductivity

PPR pipes have low thermal conductivity as the external temperatures don’t reach the liquid inside the pipe. Due to this, these pipes minimize heat loss or heat gain during the transfer of cold and hot fluids.

High-temperature resistance

PPR pipes can withstand high temperatures up to 95°C, making them suitable for use in hot water supply systems.                                                             

Long Lasting

PPR pipes have a long lifespan of up to 50 years or more under varying and extreme environmental conditions, making them a cost-effective option in the long term.

Environment and Economic Efficiency

PPR pipes are easy to transport, cut and join. These pipes are also easy to use and do not need additional chemicals and materials.                          

Corrosion-resistant                                                                            

PPR pipes resist corrosion from acidic or alkaline substances, making them a good choice for water supply systems.                                    

Easy to install                                                                                                 

PPR pipes are lightweight and thus easy to install, which may help reduce our installation time and costs.

APPLICATIONS OF PPR PIPES

Hot and Cold Water Supply Systems

PPR pipes are widely and equally used for hot and cold water supply systems in residential, commercial, and industrial buildings. They can withstand high temperatures and pressure and can distribute heat evenly which makes them ideal for transporting water in such systems. They are also used in heating systems such as under-floor heating etc.

Chemical and Fluid Transport

As we know that PPR pipes are resistant to corrosion which makes them most suitable for transporting chemicals and fluids in industrial processes.

Agricultural Irrigation Application

PPR pipes are extensively used for irrigation systems in the agriculture sector due to their durability and resistance to chemicals.

Infrastructure

PPR pipes are also used in infrastructure projects like sewage systems, drainage systems, and cable conduits. These pipes' resistance to corrosion and abrasion makes them ideal for such applications.

Transporting Fluids and Chemicals

PPR pipes are used in transporting fluids and chemicals in industrial processes.Summarily, it can be concluded that these pipes are a versatile and durable option for a wide range of piping applications.
