PE-RT type materials have been used

PE-RT type materials have been used successfully in domestic hot and cold water pipingsystems for more than 20 years, and in application areas such as underfloor heating and radiatorconnections. More recently, the easy processing and outstanding material properties have alsomade these resins attractive for use in many larger diameter industrial applications, where regularPolyethylene cannot be used due to its high temperature limitations. In this respect PE-RT canalso compete with high-end engineering plastics, offering significant cost savings. The use of PERT materials provides significant process advantages to the converters, allowing high line speedpipe production and providing excellent flexibility and ease of installation for the application.
