An Icon of Quality
On every product we make, you’ll find the Pipelife monogram proudly stamped, as a mark of trusted authenticity
and quality. And behind this mark is the most rigorous design, engineering and testing process that’s helped build
our trusted reputation for over 50 years. For complete quality control, we engineer everything in-house at Pipelife,
including our own moulds, tools and machinery.

A Lasting Legacy
Long lasting quality has always been valued by our customers. But now it’s a key attribute for the built environment,
that’s coming under ever increasing pressure to make sustainability its number one priority.

At Pipelife, we make products that help manage precious resources. Our aim is to minimise our impact on the
environment and to grow responsibly, continually investing in reducing our carbon footprint across our facilities.

Quality and innovation continue to be the terms that define our philosophy and this is reflected in the range of
products and systems that we manufacture to this day.

Put to the Test
To ensure performance at the very highest standards we have a state-of-the-art test lab. Here we batch check the
quality of all our products. Pressure, thermal, endurance and impact testing are carried out, along with a full range of
approvals to gain relevant accreditation.

Quality and Environmental Management Systems
Our goal is to produce the most environmentally friendly products, by lowering our energy and water use, raw materials
and reducing our CO2 emissions. With quality management systems and environment measures established in all
our production sites, our factories are certified according to ISO 9001 (Quality Management System), with a growing
number of production locations meeting ISO 14001 Standards (Environmental Management System).
