Description:
The family-owned company is based in Austria and has been active for more than 35 years in technical insulation and the development and production of systems and solutions for insulating heating and cooling pipes. Its range of products includes pre-insulated pipes, fittings and valves, mineral wool pipe shells, polyethylene insulation tubes, (underfloor heating) floor insulation systems, and a complete program of pipe insulation with special solutions for the industry.
Especially the company’s flexible production lines allow for a high degree of customization and enable them to respond quickly to changes in the market. In addition to the broad offering of standard solutions, they regularly produce customer and/or application-specific pre-insulated pipe systems.
Pre-insulated pipe systems:
• PUR-insulated pipe system: (PE-Xa carrier pipes insulated with a unique combination of polyurethane foam (PUR) and polyethylene foam (PEX)) - Combines the most desirable attributes of two different pre-insulated pipe technologies into a single system solution: outstanding flexibility, saving on installation costs, superior energy-saving insulation performance.
• PEX-insulated pipe system: (PE-Xa carrier pipes insulated with PEX-foam) - Designed for flexibility and ease of installation. Their excellent and durable insulation quality supports the overall energy-saving performance of hydronic distribution systems.
• Solarflex (corrugated stainless-steel pipes insulated with EPDM rubber (= ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber) or mineral wool for the underground variant) designed for quick and easy connection of thermal solar collectors with the heat pump or a storage tank.
The company offers all the above pipe systems with a comprehensive range of dedicated couplings and accessories, providing their partners with total system solutions. The accessories allow for quick, easy, and uncomplicated installation and connection.
Product applications: district heating and cooling networks, domestic hydronic heating and hot sanitary water, renewable energy utilization (biomass/biogas CHP installations, heat pumps, central wood and pellet boilers, …), potable water, snow and ice melting systems, drainage and waste water, specific industrial process piping, solar thermal systems.
The company is acting on the European market through distributors, wholesalers and through contractor projects too. For further differentiation, the company is searching now especially for importers and wholesalers in the heating and plumbing market. They are looking for strong and well-connected distribution partners, who offer coverage and availability, direct access to expertise, greater ease of ordering and more accessible customer service and technical support in the local language and context.
