Corrosion Resistance: Polypropylene is highly resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for use in plumbing and irrigation systems where exposure to water and chemicals is common.
- Chemical Resistance: It exhibits excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals, ensuring long-term durability in harsh environments.
- Lightweight: Polypropylene is lightweight, making it easy to handle and install in plumbing and irrigation systems, reducing labor costs and efforts.
- Flexibility: Its flexibility allows for easier installation around obstacles and in tight spaces, reducing the need for fittings and connectors.
- Low Thermal Conductivity: Polypropylene has low thermal conductivity, which helps in maintaining the temperature of water in plumbing systems, reducing heat loss.
- Smooth Interior Surface: It typically has a smooth interior surface, which minimizes friction and ensures efficient fluid flow in plumbing and irrigation systems, reducing energy consumption.
- UV Resistance: Polypropylene is often UV stabilized, providing protection against degradation from exposure to sunlight, making it suitable for outdoor plumbing and irrigation applications.
- High Impact Strength: It has high impact strength, reducing the risk of damage during installation and maintenance activities.
- Longevity: Polypropylene pipes and fittings have a long service life, contributing to cost savings over time due to reduced need for replacements.
- Recyclability: Polypropylene is recyclable, offering an environmentally friendly option for plumbing and irrigation systems, aligning with sustainability goals.
The Australian Standard AS 2070 applies to the manufacture of the plastics materials (resins, granules and powders) and colorants for food contact use and describes procedures to be followed during the various stages of processing by manufacturers of plastics items for food contact. Adherence to this standard means your tank will be food-grade so the water stored within is safe from plastic toxins.
AS/NZS 3500 Plumbing and DrainageThis Australian Standard, AS/NZS 3500, specifies the performance requirements for materials and products, and design and installation of roof drainage systems, surface drainage systems and subsoil drainage systems. It forms the basis of the plumbing guidelines found in Australia’s National Construction Code. Adherence means your plumbing has all been carried out by a license plumber who certifies compliance with the Code.
AS 3688 Water Supply – Metallic Fittings and End ConnectorsThis Australian Standard, AS 3688, specifies requirements for metallic body pipe fittings and connectors for use with copper tubes and stainless steel pipes and tubes and adaptor fittings for connection to other pipe materials in water supply and gas systems where the normal working temperature does not exceed 95°C, and where the maximum operating pressure does not exceed 1.4MPa.
AS/NZS 4020 Testing of Products for Use in Contact with Drinking WaterThis Australian Standard, AS/NZS 4020, specifies requirements for the suitability of products for use in contact with drinking water and defines test methods for evaluating their effect on the quality of the water. This generally applies to items such as pipes and fittings that will come into contact with your drinking water.
AS/NZS 4130 Polyethylene (PE) Pipes for Pressure ApplicationThis Australian Standard, AS/NZS 4130, specifies requirements for polyethylene pipes for the delivery of fluids under pressure. For detailed information about this standard see:AS/NZS 4130 Polyethylene Pipes (PE) For Pressure Applications (PIPA)AS/NZS 4130:2009 Polyethylene (PE) pipes for pressure applications (SAI Global)
AS/NZS 4766 Polypropylene Storage Tanks for Water ChemicalsThis Australian Standard, AS/NZS 4766, specifies requirements for the design and manufacture of polyethylene storage tanks that are rotationally moulded in one-piece seamless construction, for non-buried, vertical installation, and capable of containing water, liquids for food and beverage manufacture and chemical solutions at atmospheric pressure. All quality polyethylene tanks should be certified to this standard.
AS/NZS ISO 9001 Quality Management SystemsThis Australian Standard, AS/NZS ISO 9001, specifies requirements for quality management systems applicable to an organisation regardless of size, type, industry, product or service.
