The strong molecular bond of the materials used to create HDPE pipes also makes it suitable for use in high-pressure pipelines.
HDPE pipes are known for their immense strength, chemical stability, and high strength-to-density ration.
They have a tight bending radius, which means they are extremely flexible and are generally free of leaks.
The HDPE pipes are lightweight, which means they can be installed without the use of heavy lifting equipment.
The use of HDPE pipes in industries including Water Boards, and construction of Highrise buildings will be a continuously growing trend in the years to come, especially in lieu of their vast benefits.
The HDPE Pre-Qualification comes after NWSNDB conducted extensive testing and an overall audit of the raw materials, production process, quality assurances and more.
