There are many benefits of Poly pipe, and it can be easily applied in many projects.
- Corrosion Resistance
One of the benefits of poly pipe is that it is corrosion resistant and chemical resistant making it an ideal pipe for many industry projects. It is resistant to biological growth meaning long life expectancy, longer life service and long term cost savings.
- Fatigue and stress resistance
Just like PVC pipe, poly pipe is a hardwearing and flexible product. It is designed and pressure rated to ensure it can withstand pressure both internally and externally making it a very durable and reliable product.
- Life expectancy
Poly Pipe can be expected to last a lifetime of over 100 years.
- Repair
It has the lowest repair frequency per kilometer of pipe per year for gas distribution compared to all other pressure pipe materials.
- Adaptability
Poly Pipe can be joined in multiple ways including heat fusion, stab or mechanical fittings. Jointing poly pipe is relatively easy and inexpensive, and in addition to this, poly pipe can be transitioned to and from other piping systems not utilizing the poly pipe
- Trenchless Installation
Pipeline installation methods include pipe bursting, horizontal directional drilling (HDD), open-cut, sliplining, and jack and bore.
- Physical features
Another benefit of Poly Pipe is that it is very lightweight and flexible producing many advantages for the user. It can be moved and installed more easily, it allows greater cost efficiencies with transport and distribution compared to heavy weight pipes such as concrete and metal, and it can easily be fixed, repaired or replaced if need be. It also comes in long lengths which:
- Decreases the risk of leakage
- Decreasing the cost of installation and jointing processes
- Is less difficult for water, irrigation, telecommunications and drainage systems.
- Environmental Sustainability
Poly pipe is a product that can be recycled back into non-pressure pipe
This all encourages more environmental sustainable and long-term product usage. Poly pipe is a long term and efficient pipe supply for many industrial ventures and projects.

- Poly Pipe Applications
Poly pipe is best suit for all underground utilities including gas, water, sanitary sewer, electrical and communication duct, storm sewer, water service connection. Industrial applications where abrasion, corrosion and chemical resistance is critical.
