Different pipe applications place different demands on pressure performance, stiffness, material use, and dimensional accuracy. Rollepaal provides PVC extrusion technology for both pressure and non-pressure pipe production.
From application requirements to the right extrusion technology
PVC pipe is used across water distribution, sewer and drainage systems, agriculture, building construction and telecommunication infrastructure.
The production requirements differ considerably. Pressure pipes are primarily designed around internal pressure and material strength, while non-pressure pipes depend more strongly on stiffness, wall structure and resistance to external loads.
Select an application below to explore the relevant pipe structures, extrusion technologies, and production considerations.

Water distribution, irrigation, and some gas-pipe applications require pipe designs that can withstand internal pressure throughout their intended service life.
Material strength, pipe dimensions, and design factors determine the required wall design. Rollepaal supports conventional Solid Wall PVC-U and M-PVC as well as inline PVC-O production.
Sewer, drainage, building, and conduit applications are generally dominated by external loads, stiffness, and dimensional requirements rather than internal pressure.
Solid-wall and multi-layer extrusions offer different ways to achieve the required pipe structure while optimizing material use.
