PP-RC Water Supply System
Premium Green & Blue PP-RC Pipes & Fittings for Hot & Cold Water Supply Networks. Available under German Norm DN-8077/8078 standards.
System Overview
GERMAN Plast offers a wide product range of PP-RC Pipes & Fittings for Hot & Cold Water Supply networks in all Residential, Commercial & Industrial buildings.
Polypropylene (P.P) is a thermoplastic polymer, whereas, R.C. stands for "Random Co-polymer". Generally, RC materials are more flexible and have superior impact strength at temperatures between 0 - 25°C.
Reaction with other materials: PP-RC has been formulated not to react adversely with any traditional building material, ensuring a hygienically safe and corrosion-free environment.
Thermal Stability
Designed to handle both hot and cold water extremes with a melting point of 146°C.
Impact Resistant
High structural integrity and superior impact strength, especially at lower temperatures.
Chemical Safe
Free from chemical reactions, ensuring the water remains hygienically safe and pure.
Noise Free
Smooth internal flow guarantees a high-pressure network that is completely noise-free.
