White PVC pipes, made from unplasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC-U), are widely used in water supply systems. Their smooth internal surface reduces friction, allowing water to flow efficiently. These pipes are resistant to corrosion, chemicals, and scaling, which ensures longevity and maintains water quality over time. At LESSO, their white PVC pipes meet international standards such as ISO 1452-3 and BS 6920, confirming their safety and reliability for potable water applications.
