Have you ever stopped to think about how essential services are delivered to our homes and communities reliably, safely and sustainably every day? It's thanks to plastic pipe systems!!! These networks deliver our fresh drinking water, gas and electricity, protect our internet cables, and are used in irrigation to grow food. They also safely carry away sewerage, rainwater and stormwater protecting our environment. These silent hero's improve our lives everyday in so many ways. That's using plastic for good. #plasticpipes #circular #sustainable #essential #plumbing #irrigation #infrastructure #networks #communities #water #sewerage #communication #protect #environment

The Plastics Industry Pipes Association of Australia Limited
About us
Founded in 1999, the Plastics Industry Pipe Association of Australia (PIPA) is the peak industry body representing plastic pipes, fittings and raw material suppliers in Australia. We're a non-profit association and our purpose is to promote the appropriate and contemporary use of plastic pipes and fittings throughout Australia. Underpinning our approach is a commitment to future-focused leadership. Through research, education, technical expertise and advocacy, we help advance the use of plastic pipes and fittings as a smart, efficient and sustainable solution. By collaborating with our members, industry professionals and global counterparts, we can leverage the latest insights and technology. We use these to develop robust guidelines and best practice manufacture, installation and use of plastics pipeline systems. Australia's vast landscapes require large-scale, special purpose systems to move water, wastewater, gas and to protect underground networks of power and communication cables. We know the potential that plastic pipeline systems provide for long life, sustainable infrastructure that supports the circular economy. By using resources responsibility through better design, we're working smarter. We're committed. And we're working towards creating a healthier environment and sustainable future.

Our Executive General Manager Cindy Bray has been out and about with Penny Cornah CEO of Master Plumbers' Association of Queensland talking all things PVC pipes! #plumbing #PVCpipes #safe #recyclable #industry #collobration #recyclingscheme #educate #circular #manufacturing
Another fantastic opportunity to be out and about with Penny Cornah CEO of Master Plumbers' Association of Queensland - saying hi to our stakeholders participating in the Construction Plastics Recycling Scheme. It’s great to have conversations about the important role #plumbers and #plasticpipes play in our industry - without them we wouldn’t have our essential services delivered safely and reliably day after day! Adding to this #plasticpipes being 100% recyclable means we can collect our offcuts and use these back into the manufacture of non-pressure pipes!!! 🙌

PIPA has recently updated their guidelines for best practices in electrofusion #ef welding. POP001 – Electrofusion Jointing of PE Pipe and Fittings for Pressure Applications and POP001A – Guide to Electrofusion Assembly and Welding. PE pipes play a critical role in infrastructure systems, and their installation must adhere to strict industry standards. Both POP001 and POP001A offer comprehensive guidelines on how to ensure successful electrofusion jointing, from proper pipe preparation to welder certification. By following these best practice guidelines, the safety, reliability, and longevity of PE pipe systems can be assured, supporting vital infrastructure needs across Australia. #industry #bestpractice #pepipes #infrastructure #guidelines #welding #electrofusion
