UPVC pipe has a large part in the industrial and construction industry.
UPVC pipes that have been used in water supply, sewage, underground cable protection, also with the progress and evaluation in the production of UPVC pipes able to the transfer of liquids with high heat such as oil or heat liquid.
A brief history of the production of UPVC pipes and fittings :
Polyvinyl chloride (colloquial: polyvinyl, vinyl abbreviated: PVC) is the world’s third-most widely produced synthetic plastic polymer (after polyethylene and polypropylene[). Around 39 million tons of PVC are produced each year in the world.
PVC is produced in two types: first called rigid (abbreviated as RPVC). the rigid form of PVC is used in construction for pipe and in profile applications such as doors and windows. the second type is softer and more flexible by the addition of plasticizers, the most widely used being phthalates. In this form, it is also used in plumbing, electrical cable insulation.
UPVC abbreviated as unplasticized polyvinyl chloride. They are an improved version of PVC.
