About uPVC Pipes
uPVC is a thermoplastic material and has the longest track record of all plastic materials. The first uPVC pipes were made in the 1930s. Beginning in the 1950s, PVC pipes were used to replace corroded metal pipes and thus bring fresh drinking water to a growing rural and later urban population. We provide 100% Lead Free uPVC pipes of sizes ranging from 20 mm to 250 mm of all classes. All the sizes are as per IS 4985 : 2021 and have BIS certification.
