In the modern industrial landscape, quality piping systems form the backbone of production and processing operations. Industrial piping is a system of interconnected pipes designed to create flow paths for liquids, gases, powders, or granular materials. In any piping system, the structure and materials must perfectly match its intended purpose.

Industrial piping must withstand challenging conditions:

  • Larger quantities of flowing materials
  • Extreme pressure and temperature conditions
  • Exposure to chemically aggressive substances
  • Strict regulatory and safety requirements

Plast Hen, a leading piping contractor, specializes in designing, manufacturing, and installing advanced piping solutions for various industries, using high-quality thermoplastic materials that ensure durability and maximum service life.

Specialization in Industrial Piping Works - Materials and Technologies

In industrial applications, the range of materials transported through piping systems is vast - from water to complex chemical compounds. Plast Hen performs industrial piping works with special expertise in advanced thermoplastic materials:

PP (Polypropylene)

PP piping contractors at Plast Hen specialize in working with this highly chemical-resistant material, suitable for chemical transport systems and food processing operations. PP piping excels in its resistance to high temperatures (up to 100°C) and offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio.

HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene)

HDPE piping contractors install ideal solutions for water systems, sewage, and industrial drainage. HDPE piping offers excellent flexibility, UV damage resistance, and superior sealing properties. The homogeneous welded joints ensure a completely sealed system without weak points.

PVDF (Polyvinylidene Fluoride)

Advanced chemical piping works sometimes require PVDF, a premium material offering the highest chemical resistance in the thermoplastic category. It is particularly suitable for highly corrosive environments and applications requiring high purity, such as the chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)

PVC piping contractors at Plast Hen provide an economical and reliable solution for drainage, sewage, and industrial ventilation systems. PVC piping offers good chemical resistance, simple installation, and significant cost savings.

PEX (Cross-linked Polyethylene)

A piping contractor specializing in hot water piping works uses advanced PEX technology, which combines the flexibility of polyethylene with improved resistance to temperature and pressure. Ideal for hot water transport systems and industrial heating.

GRP/FRP (Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic)

Fiberglass piping contractors specialize in installing composite solutions that combine glass fibers with polymeric resin to create piping with excellent mechanical strength and high chemical resistance. Particularly suitable for heavy industry and large-diameter systems.

Advanced Welding Methods in Plastic Piping Works

The quality of connections between piping segments is critical for ensuring the reliability and safety of the entire system. Plastic pipe welding works require high skill and the use of advanced techniques. Plast Hen specializes in three main welding methods:

B.W (Butt Welding)

A face-to-face welding technique suitable for large-diameter pipes. The process includes heating the pipe ends to an optimal temperature, joining them together under controlled pressure, and creating an exceptionally strong hermetic connection. This method is especially common in heavy industry piping works.

S.W (Socket Welding)

A socket welding method suitable for small to medium diameter pipes. In this technique, the pipe is inserted into a socket in the fitting and connected through combined heating. This method is common in the installation of complex piping systems with numerous fittings.

Electric Welding (Electrofusion)

An advanced technology for welding polyethylene (PE) and PEX pipes using special fittings with built-in heating coils. This method ensures particularly reliable connections, regardless of environmental conditions, and is widely implemented in piping works for water and sewage systems.

All welding works at Plast Hen are performed according to accepted standards, taking into account the pipe wall thickness, material type, and pipe diameter, ensuring quality and durability over time.

The Importance of Certification in Selecting a Piping Contractor

One of the decisive factors in selecting industrial piping contractors is the certification level and experience of the staff. A responsible industrial piping contractor must hold appropriate certifications that attest to their professional training.

Plast Hen employs professionals with official certifications in:

  • Thermoplastic pipe welding (B.W, S.W, electrofusion welding)
  • Industrial piping installation (certified work managers, workers with height certifications, confined space, etc.)
  • Advanced piping system design
  • Quality control and pressure testing

These certifications are not merely a formal requirement but a guarantee that piping works will be performed at the highest professional level, adhering to all safety and quality regulations. Selecting a certified piping contractor ensures safe, reliable, and durable systems.

Questions and Answers About המאמר

How do you choose the right type of piping for my facility?

The choice depends on several factors: type of material being transported, operating temperature, operating pressure, specific industry regulatory requirements, and cost-benefit considerations. Plast Hen’s experts can conduct a comprehensive analysis of your needs and recommend the optimal solution.

What are the advantages of plastic piping over metal piping in industry?

Plastic piping offers higher corrosion resistance, lower weight, lower installation costs, and in many cases, longer service life. It also does not accumulate deposits like metal pipes and does not conduct electricity, making it safer in certain environments.

How long does it take to complete an industrial piping installation project?

Execution time depends on the size and complexity of the project. Plast Hen works with efficient methods, including pre-preparation of parts at the factory, which significantly reduces on-site installation time. Some smaller projects can be completed within a few days, while larger projects may take several weeks.

Is thermoplastic piping suitable for use in pharmaceutical plants?

Absolutely! Plast Hen provides advanced piping solutions for pharmaceutical facilities, using materials such as PP, PVDF, and PFA that meet the strict standards of the pharmaceutical industry, including high purity requirements.

Why is it important to choose a piping contractor with proper certifications?

Selecting a certified piping contractor ensures that piping work will be performed according to the strictest standards, using correct and safe working techniques. A contractor without appropriate certification may perform substandard work that could cause expensive damage in the future, safety risks, and non-compliance with regulatory requirements.
