PVC Pipes Market, by Type (Unplasticized, Chlorinated, Molecular Oriented, and Others (High Impact, etc.)), by Application (Irrigation, Water Supply, Sewerage, Plumbing, Oil & Gas, and Others (HVAC, etc.)), and by Region (North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Size, Share, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022 - 2028
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes that successfully replace metal pipes in several applications. Due to PVC’s great corrosion resistance, it has been widely utilized in industrial applications from many years, for everything from process cooling water to the transfer of hazardous chemicals. Chemical plants hostile environments as well as transportation of chemicals, create great demands on piping systems in terms of safety, cost, and subsequent maintenance which PVC can meet.
A free radical chlorination process modifies CPVC, thereby increasing the molecule’s chlorine concentration. CPVC, similar to PVC, is a thermoplastic that is molded into most of the comparable items. Due to this change in composition of CPVC pipes, CPVC pipes can survive a broader range of temperatures. As a result, several construction rules request the utilization of CPVC pipes rather than PVC pipes in hot water operations. Therefore, several construction rules demand the use of CPVC pipes rather than PVC pipes in hot water operations. According to the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard, PVC pipes can also be used in situation that don't rise above 140 degrees Fahrenheit. PVC saves electricity and water by forming almost leak-free pipelines that are resistant to corrosion and environmental factors. The breakdown percentage of PVC equipment is as low as 1% of that of cast metal equipment.
For instance, in May 2021, Pipelife is a leading supplier of piping system solutions for infrastructure, buildings and agriculture. Launched a new generation pipes manufactured using BIOVYN, the world's first commercially available bio-attributed PVC from INOVYN, which delivers a greenhouse gas saving of more than 90% compared to conventionally produced PVC.
