A derivative of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) is a thermoplastic produced by the chlorination of the PVC resin. AKG CPVC plumbing systems are manufactured using world's best Japanese material and Austrian technology & is a safe, long lasting and cost effective solution for hot and cold water. This system is suitable for all plumbing and potable water applications. The pipes and fittings are made of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride and it is available in complete range from 1/2" to 4". The pipes are available in SDR 11 and SDR 13.5 whereas fittings are available in SDR 11 pressure class. Threaded inserts in the transition fittings are made from brass to withstand chemical corrosion even at the elevated temperatures.
AKG CPVC Pipes and fittings are manufactured according to IS-15778 :2007 and ASTM D-2846 respectively. The choice of the raw material, the structural accuracy and the strict quality control imparts a high degree of reliability to AKG CPVC Pipes & Fittings making them most suitable, easy and economic solution for transportation and distribution of potable water. It has numerous advantages over G.I. and other conventional Piping system.

CPVC pipes (Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride) are a type of high-performance plastic pipes used for plumbing systems. Known for their strength, heat resistance, and longevity, CPVC pipe is widely used in residential, commercial, and industrial settings for carrying hot and cold water.
CPVC pipes are mainly used in hot and cold water plumbing systems, both in homes and commercial buildings. Their ability to withstand high temperatures makes them ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and industrial water distribution. They are also commonly used in solar water heater and geyser setups.
Yes, CPVC pipe is completely safe for carrying drinking water. It is non-toxic, corrosion-resistant, and doesn’t leach harmful chemicals into the water. It also prevents bacterial growth, making it ideal for long-term water supply systems.
CPVC pipes are specially engineered to handle high temperatures up to 93°C (200°F). Unlike regular PVC or GI pipes, they don’t soften, warp, or degrade with hot water. That’s why CPVC pipe is often preferred for homes, hotels, and hospitals where hot water usage is frequent.
