PEX-AL-PEX

Brief Introduction

Ginde composite pipes consist of an aluminium core with inner and outer plastic layers, tightly bonded with a special adhesive to the aluminium core. All the layers are extruded in one step. Ginde composite pipes have all the advantages of both metal and plastic pipes, but none of their disadvantages.

Ginde Plastic Pipe Industry Group (GPPIG) has an extensive range of PEX-AL-PEX production lines, all imported from the German UNICOR Company, implementing the "one step five layer extrusion method", using an ultrasonic over lap welding technique. The raw materials are imported from famous European and American companies. The main suppliers are the American DOWLEX Chemical Company, the American PHILIPS Company, the German POLYPLAST Company and the Dutch DSM Company.

Advantages

  • Individual advantages show that its consistency is very strong and it has the ability to bend
  • Superior resistant properties of high temperature, high pressure, corrosion and fire
  • Smooth inner surface of the pipe increases flow rate by more than 30%, making it more efficient than metal pipes
  • Thermal conductivity is 0.45W/m.k and is more cost effective than metal pipes, it saves insulation material costs on pipes used externally
  • Easy cutting and convenient installation
  • Small diameter pipes are easy to bend and are packaged in rolls, saving time and labour costs
  • Guaranteed for more than 50 years under normal conditions
  • Huge savings on transportation costs due to the light weight (one tenth of zinc-plated pipes)
  • The plastic covered aluminium core assures no oxygen permeability, preventing bacterial growth
  • Underground pipes are easily detected with metal detectors
  • It has excellent static-shield properties. It is widely used for electric and communication cabling

Applications

  • Industrial and residential systems for hot and cold water
  • Pipeline systems for conveying potable water
  • Heating pipelines for under floor heating, wall and roof heating, snow melting in parking lots and airport runways
  • Pipelines for air conditioners
  • Pipelines for solar heating systems
  • Pipelines for gas and coal gas
  • Pipelines for oxygen transportation in hospitals
  • Pipelines for oil and cooling fluid transportation
  • Pipelines for electric wire and communication cabling
  • Pipelines for compressed air
  • Pipelines for fluid transportation in beverage factories
  • Pipelines for irrigation engineering in agriculture and gardens
