As one of the leading suppliers of plastic pipe systems, Uponor attaches great importance to product development. The new Uponor Aqua Pipe Blue in conduit is manufactured from highest quality cross-linked renewable polyethylene and is part of Uponor’s sustainable product offering. Renewable polyethylene raw material for the pipe is based on the Bornewables™ product range supplied by Borealis. These raw materials are made using sustainably-sourced ISCC-certified renewable feedstocks derived solely from waste and residue streams unfit for human consumption and therefore do not impact food security. Uponor Aqua Pipe Blue in conduit is designed for application in both hot and cold tap water systems in concealed installations with conduit as well as a distribution pipe. The pipe is produced according to EN ISO 15875 class 2 in 10 bar versions. Uponor Aqua Pipe Blue in conduit is treated in accordance with the new hygienic requirement in the Positive Lists for Organic Materials, 4MS Common Approach. The conduit is manufactured from HD polyethylene in different colours and is corrugated, which provides great flexibility and great load-bearing capacity. Uponor conduit fulfils the Norwegian requirements, Nordtest method, NT VVS 129 including test method no. 02-2014 also KIWA BRL K536 part D. The conduit insulates the inner pipe and prevents water damage to the body of the building in the event of any pipe leakage, as well as facilitating pipe replacement.
