PVC-O

Molecular orientated PVC (PVC-O) is a high performance, cost effective and environmentally friendly product for the distribution of irrigation water. The PVC-O pipe is jointed with a mechanical rubber ring joint and complimented with a range of PVC-O and ductile iron fittings for use with PVC-O pipe. The pipe is coloured blue and rated to 16 bar working pressure.

The process in which PVC-O pipe is made involves re-orientating the molecules of PVC-u material to improve physical properties. This combination gives the best weight vs. performance characteristics in the industry for a product that will last over 50 years.
