High-density Polyethylene Piping Products
Why HDPE?
Longer life, lower weight, more flexibility, higher chemical resistance and flow, stronger, leak-free joints — HDPE offers real advantages over traditional piping materials such as steel, concrete and PVC.
HDPE: the clear choice
ISCO’s HDPE leadership stems from a valuable combination of in-stock product selection, industry experience, specialized expertise and service — and the clear, multiple advantages of the material itself.
100-year service life
High corrosion and chemical resistance for long, maintenance-free product life and lower cost of ownership
Stronger joints than PVC or steel
HDPE fusion joinery technology for leak-free performance throughout the life of the pipe
Lighter than steel or concrete
Superior strength-to-weight ratio for easier, faster and less expensive installation
Higher flow rate
30% better flow than metal, reducing diameter requirements for lower energy and pipe costs
More flexible
High material flexibility for easier installation and fewer fittings and joints in challenging terrain
Lower environmental impact
HDPE’s long life, leakproof joints and light weight combine for lower impact and a lower carbon footprint

Beyond Concrete: The Advantages of HDPE Pipe in Modern Piping Solutions
In a world where comfort often breeds resistance to change, the emergence of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) in large-diameter piping systems is revolutionizing the industry. While reinforced concrete pipes (RCPs) have long been the norm, HDPE offers a plethora of benefits from installation to long-term performance. Let’s delve into why HDPE is becoming the preferred choice over RCP.
