No matter how the question concerning the selection of a piping material is approached, the condition of the water as well as the impact on the environment will always be of critical importance.
Our water is becoming both softer and harder in various regions within South Africa. This in turn has led to a greater requirement for Uponor PE-Xa. Paradoxically, the material itself is a low-energy product made from carbon and hydrogen. One of Uponor PE-Xa piping's advantages is that it is corrosion resistant with a smooth, even surface making it difficult for deposits to accumulate. Uponor PE-Xa contains no dangerous chemicals and is the environmentally safe alternative. When thoroughly incinerated, only carbon dioxide and water are produced. Both production and installation technology is designed to minimize waste products. Should these arise, they are dealt with economically in an environmental friendly manner.
Protecting our environment requires a viewpoint that is significant to the concept of responsibility. This means, it involves our efforts in the short as well as long term. We strive to develop relationships with our customers and suppliers for continuous environmental improvement.
