PVC Pipes Market - Trends, Growth, Manufacturing Requirements and Opportunities

Being cost-effective, light-weight, easy to install, long-lasting and non-corrosive; PVC pipes are continuously replacing conventional metal pipes and currently account for nearly 60% of the total plastic pipes produced worldwide.

PVC pipes are made up of a plastic resin chemically known as- polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is the third largest synthetic polymer produced in the world. They are manufactured by the extrusion of a blend of polymer resin (PVC) and various additives. Plasticizers may or may not be added in this mix to impart rigidity or flexibility to the pipe. This blend after heating when forced into a die results in the rigid/flexible PVC pipe coming out. It is then sized, cooled, hauled off and cut in the desired length. Compared to concrete pipes, the manufacturing of PVC pipes requires around four times lesser energy and incurs lower losses of the raw material PVC. The complete recyclability of PVC also makes their environmental footprint far smaller than competing piping materials.

PVC pipes are cost-effective, light-weight, easy to install, long-lasting and do not rust, rot or wear over time. The PVC plastic imparts them the ability to withstand extreme movements, bending and rigorous shaking of earth in earthquake prone areas without experiencing any damage. They are continuously replacing conventional metal pipes and currently account for nearly 60% of the total plastic pipes produced worldwide. Their high resistance to chemicals and a high tensile strength to withstand high fluid pressure makes them suitable for water supply schemes. With excellent electrical and heat insulation properties, they are also gaining acceptance in electrification purposes. Globally, their demand is mostly growing in water supply systems, irrigation systems, water sprinkling systems, underground sewage, drainage lines and wiring.
