The UK gas industry is renowned for strictly governed approvals and standards, against which all gas pipes need to be qualified. This pipe is fully approved to these stringent Gas Industry Standards quality criteria, and has proven performance material characteristics that outlast metallic pipework, making it ideal for both upgrading older pipework as well as designing a new system.

Coils of PE pipe are a preferred method for installers due to a reduction in joints throughout the system. All coils are capped and carefully banded to allow safe transportation, storage and handling on site.

Peak Pipe Systems Polyethylene 

Peak Pipe Systems are one of the UK's largest manufacturers and suppliers of high quality polyethylene pipe and utility pipe; tested, accredited and approved against key industry standards.

All of their standard products are produced using high grade virgin PE100 & PE80 polymer, both high-density and medium-density polyethylene grades with exceptional pressure ratings and durability.

Key Features of Polyethylene Pipe:

• High flexibility and lightweight
• Low friction and high flow rate
• Resistance to corrosion
• Can be installed quickly and consistently in cold and warm weather.
• Suitable for various installation methods
• Cost saving in transportation and installation
• Specifically design to least a targeted 100 years in operation
• Material properties outperform metallic alternatives and minimise costly maintenance and rehabilitation processes.

Polyethylene has the ability to expand and contract with continuous fluctuating operating system pressures, this continual flexibility whilst maintaining structural strength means the network remains leak free and suitable for continual use in a variety of ground conditions.
