2. In this blog, before discussing on differences between PVC, CPVC, and UPVC pipes and
fittings, let us discuss about similarities first. The UPVC Pipes and Fittings in India for home
projects are generally prepared from high quality materials that are free from bacteria and micro
organism attack.
Further, they are able to withstand high temperature and good to use even in extreme weather
conditions. PVC pipes are also suitable for chemical and gas industries and they are highly
resistant to acid or alkali attacks. Now we will discuss on similarities how all of three pipes and
fittings are different from each other.
CPVC pipes and fittings have low engineering costs and they are able to withstand with high
transition temperatures and heat distortion or smokes. CPVC pipes are usually installed at
industrial locations where applications run at high temperatures and suspected to chemical
attacks.
IF we discuss about residential usage then CPVC pipes and fittings can be used with pumps,
valves, filters, strainers, tower packaging etc. The material used for fabricating CPVC pipes is
non toxic in nature and assure good tensile strength.
The corrosion resistant properties and its capability to withstand high temperatures make CPVC
pipes and fittings suitable for both home and commercial projects. It is widely used at
construction sites as well.
3. Next is UPVC pipes and fittings or it may be known as rigid PVC pipes that are good for
building industries. It is available in various colors and finishing. The color will explain about
capability of pipes to withstand temperatures and heat distortion.
Previously UPVC pipes and fittings were imported from foreign bodies like China but
manufacturing of UPVC pipes is done in-house only. Still there are only manufacturers who
supply or distributes different rang of PVC pipes in market like DMD Industries.
