EPD: Polyethylene (PE) pipes with oxygen diffusion barrier (Uponor Corporation)
As one of the leading suppliers of plastic pipe systems, Uponor attaches great importance to product development. The new Klett Comfort Pipe PLUS Blue is a pipe with an oxygen diffusion barrier. This barrier consists of a layer of ethyl vinyl alcohol (EVOH) extruded on the outside of the PEX pipe. The outermost layer is polyethylene (PE). This layer is very flexible and does not affect the flexibility and pliability of the basic pipe. Renewable PE raw material for the pipe is based on the Bornewables™ product range supplied by Borealis. These raw materials are made using sustainably sourced renewable feedstocks derived solely from waste and residue vegetable oils, such as used cooking oil and residues from vegetable oil processing. The residue from vegetable oil processing consists of rancid fat that has to be removed to produce food-grade oil. The used cooking oil, entirely waste and residues in origin, is a waste stream collected from restaurants and the food industry. The waste and residue raw materials that are used to produce our feedstock are no longer fit for human consumption, and as such, do not impact food security.
