UPVC PRESSURE PIPES
CONTINUING QUALITY IN UPVC PIPE
Manufacturing of premier quality PVC pipe in the UK ceased in 2006. Epco prepared for this by sourcing an overseas pipe producer with outstanding credentials in quality and reliability.
 Epco now offer a range of UPVC pressure pipes, manufactured by National Plastic of Sharjah UAE, under an ISO9002 Quality Assurance System. Product quality is strictly in accordance with BS3505:1986, standardising dimensions, workmanship and materials. The pipe is made purely from virgin unplasticised polyvinyl chloride compound, with no added re-grind.
National Plastic was established in 1975. Today the company is a major manufacturer of a wide range of high quality plastic pipe systems, with production facilities covering an area over 18,000 square metres. The company distributes and markets its products in more than 40 countries worldwide, complying with applicable international standards, including WRAS approval in the UK. |
