What is PPR Pipe?
PPR (Polypropylene Random Copolymer) pipe is a rigid plastic pipe produced through extrusion, commonly available in green or white with diameters from 20mm to 110mm. Known for its thick walls and durability, PPR is used with heat-fused fittings for secure connections.
Key Advantages:
✔ Thermal Efficiency – Low conductivity reduces heat loss/gain, improving energy efficiency.
✔ 50+ Year Lifespan – Resists high temperatures (hot water) and cold-weather cracking.
✔ Smooth Interior – Minimizes pressure loss and prevents scaling (unlike metal pipes).
✔ Chemical Resistance – Ideal for salty water, acidic/alkaline fluids, and industrial use.
✔ Eco-Friendly – Lightweight, easy to install, and joined without chemicals.
Common Uses:
Hot/cold drinking water systems (homes, industries).
Radiator heating circuits.
Industrial fluid transport (compressed air, chemicals, food-grade liquids).
PPR pipe combines longevity, safety, and cost-effectiveness, making it a top choice for modern plumbing and industrial systems.
