Risks of rapid crack propagation are lower with PE materialDon't crack under pressure! While the use of PE tends to increase in gas piping systems due to its lower risk of RCP, PE100+ Association promotes a higher quality material than standard requirements. We invite pipeline and others companies to consult our quality material list : be sure to use the very highest quality of PE 100 products.

EPD for PE pipesPE100+ deems it important to have insight into the integral environmental burdens encountered during the life span of a PE pipe system (DN/OD 400 mm) for water distribution. PE100+ wishes to get information on the entire life cycle of the systems, from the cradle-to-the grave. With this framework in mind, PE100+ has set up an LCA/EPD project with the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO). The present EPD outlines the various environmental aspects, which accompany the polyethylene (PE) pipe system for water distribution
