Products - PP-R PIPES & FITTINGS

General
Raw Material

Vesbo PP-R pipes and fittings are manufactured from high quality, Polypropylene Random Co-polymer resins or PP Type 3 raw material.

Its physical chemical properties make Vesbo a versatile piping system in a wide range of applications in different industries.

Its advantages over other PP types 1 or 2 and other thermoplastic pipes in the potable water industries are its high impact strength and resistance to high temperatures.
