uPVC Pipe And Fittings
uPVC Pipes Manufacturers in Pakistan
A Modern & Durable Piping Solution
uPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) has become a game-changer in the piping sector due to its superior durability, chemical resistance, and cost-effectiveness. In contrast to traditional materials such as metal or concrete, uPVC is resistant to rust, corrosion, and degradation, making it ideal for a wide range of applications, including plumbing, drainage, water supply, electrical conduit systems, and industrial fluid management.
At Newtech Pipes, we provide premium-quality uPVC Pipes & Fittings that comply with international standards (BS, ASTM, PS, etc.), ensuring maximum reliability and long-term performance.
What is uPVC?
uPVC (Unplasticized Polyvinyl Chloride) is a more rigid form of PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) commonly used in construction and plumbing applications. Unlike regular PVC, uPVC is free of plasticizers, which gives it greater rigidity, enhanced weather resistance, and improved chemical stability.
It was first introduced in the 1960s in Germany, where engineers sought a durable alternative to traditional piping materials. Over time, uPVC became a preferred choice for both residential and industrial projects, replacing materials like cast iron, galvanized steel, and copper.
Installation & Maintenance Guide for uPVC Pipes
Step-by-Step Installation Process
- Measure & Cut – Use a fine-toothed saw for precise cutting
- Measure & Cut – Use a fine-toothed saw for precise cutting
- Apply Solvent Cement – Ensure a strong, leak-proof joint
- Fit & Secure the Pipe – Properly align the fittings
