Corys Piping Systems signs regional partnership agreement with Molecor for PVC-O pipes
PVC- O pipes present several advantages both in terms of quality of the product and its mechanical properties
PIPES As part of its growth strategy across MEA, Corys Piping Systems, manufacturers of Hepworth, recently signed an agreement with Spanish company Molecor, for its innovative PVC-O pipes. PVC-O offer tremendous benefits in terms of cost, jointing technology, high levels of durability and extremely long lifetime, backed by a 50year guarantee.
PVC-O pipes are exclusively developed with Molecor innovative technology, which provides maximum molecular orientation. Furthermore, Molecor, in its continuous R&D process, has created an exclusive system for the manufacture of highly efficient oriented PVC fittings with which the company is able to produce these products with the highest of mechanical properties.
Speaking on the occasion, Maged Makar, general manager Oman and regional director of new business development of Corys Piping Systems said: “We are delighted to sign this agreement with Molecor to offer our customers a product that is sustainable and environmentally friendly across its lifecycle, from production through to installation, use and even beyond to recycling and re-use.”
Emphasising the reasons for Corys Piping Systems selection of this technology, Maged added that the new technology compliments the company’s vision; it offers significant advantages in terms of hydraulic efficiencies, long-term performance as well as total installed cost savings thanks to its simple push fit installation technique and light weight structure.
Molecular orientation, PVC-O pipes present several advantages both in terms of quality of the product and its mechanical properties. The molecular orientation principle of the polymeric chains results in much improved impact resistance and reduced crack propagation while improving the pipe strength and fatigue resistance.
