CPVC Compounds for Hot Water Pipes

At Alphagary Compuestos, we provide our customers with innovative solutions for pipes, profiles, and fittings—whether for heavy-duty or decorative use, indoors or outdoors.

We offer a wide range of PVC and CPVC materials with different properties tailored to each specific application. These include UV protection, high impact resistance, strong performance, and excellent finished product appearance.

Our portfolio meets specific requirements and regulations such as REACH, RoHS, PROP 65, among others, for the various segments of the construction and infrastructure industries.

 

Problem

The main challenge was to develop a solution to replace copper piping for hot water transportation that would be more cost-effective while offering equal or better performance than copper.

Application

Hydraulic pipes for hot water transportation.

Challenges

Through dedicated sales efforts, we successfully identified a customer within the market and established a strong relationship, which gave us the opportunity to present a CPVC compound proposal. Initially, we only had the theoretical framework; however, thanks to our experience in designing and developing other compounds, we were able to deliver a proposal that was very well received due to its performance…

Entre las características que generaron mayor satisfacción al cliente destaca el acabado superficial de los tubos fabricados con nuestro compuesto; el cliente estaba acostumbrado a observar un acabado ligeramente rugoso, mientras que nuestro compuesto presentó un acabado libre de imperfecciones. Adicionalmente, el producto diseñado presentó excelente estabilidad térmica.

Parte crucial en el buen desempeño del material fue la asesoría técnica que nuestra área de Investigación y Desarrollo brindó durante la instalación del material. Se determinaron las condiciones óptimas de procesamiento del material para asegurar que los tubos fabricados presentaran excelente desempeño de resistencia al impacto y aplastamiento.

Results

Today, we actively participate in the CPVC compounds market. What began as an opportunity has evolved into an established market that positions Alphagary Compuestos as a company capable of offering competitive solutions for the piping industry. In fact, our CPVC compounds have been offered to other clients in the market, and we are still asked how a company that doesn’t manufacture pipes can produce such a high-quality product.

Este éxito nos… posiciona en el mercado a tal grado, que los clientes nos piden ocasionalmente revisar con qué compuestos de PVC para tubería contamos, no sólo de CPVC.

Nuestra experiencia, conseguida a través de la interacción de los aditivos que agregamos al PVC, nos han llevado a ser los únicos fabricantes y vendedores CPVC en México, y esto refleja nuestro espíritu innovador y de excelencia.
