Material

In focus: Plastics and metalClimate change, the finiteness of fossil fuels and a rapidly rising demand for energy are among the challenges we face in the future. For companies it will become even more important to offer products and solutions which match these challenges. For example, piping systems made of plastic cause less carbon dioxide emissions than metal piping systems. We offer complete plastic systems for nearly every application, whether in building technology, water treatment, cooling or other segments. Our plastic piping systems are leakproof, corrosion-resistant, lightweight and long-lived.
The added value of our solutions: plastics are “greener“ than metalsPlastic piping systems of GF offered applications and dimensions almost ever have better results than competitive materials. In the case of PE 100 (DN80) the carbon dioxide emissions are even five times lower than those of a comparable steel pipe. This is the result of an study that focused on the ecological footprint of various piping materials.
Plastics save energy To further improve the environmental performance of our plastic pipes, materials consumption must also be reduced.
