Molecor launches oriented PVC pipe with exceptional features

Molecor, a company that specializes in the development of the latest technology for the manufacture of Oriented PVC Pipes (PVC-O), has widened its pipes range with the launch of its new Oriented Plastic Pipe: DN125mm. This is another milestone for the company which has expanded the possibilities of networks design, with diameters that guarantee effectivity in pressure and required flow, while presenting corresponding cost savings.  

The company already achieved an important milestone after becoming the worldwide pioneer in the manufacture of Oriented PVC Pipes of DN 500, 630 and 800 mm. Since its foundation and in order to be a world leader in technology for piping network, Molecor has embarked on research and development to provide innovative solutions and to meet the challenges that the water supply market presents nowadays.

The molecular orientation process, provides the TOM® Pipe with exceptional mechanical and hydraulic characteristics compared to other materials pipelines existing in the market. The process enables higher hydraulic capacity and conveyance of higher volumes of water for the same diameter; while the lightness  makes unnecessary the use of machinery up to big diameters. The pipes can be easily  manipulated and installed till DN 250 mm and shows better behavior in water hammer due to its lower celerity and excellent impact resistance.

Applied to pressure pipelines, the pipe presents excellent resistance, both mechanical and chemical, thus ensuring a very high useful life.

The fully watertight pipes system, which prevents leakages and head losses, results in a decrease in the volume of supplied water. These characteristics provide solutions oriented to optimize the available hydraulic resources and to reduce the energy costs.
