PVC Pressure Pipe Performance from Think Pipes Think PVC


Australian testing demonstrates no pipe degradation after 30 years

A recent report from Utah State University Buried Structures Laboratory by Steven Folkman, titled PVC Pipe Longevity Report, used an Australian case study to prove the long-term service of PVC pipes and to assess any deterioration or degradation in their service. Below is an excerpt from the case study used in the report to demonstrate the 100+ year benchmark standard for PVC Pipes.
