Automatically pressing push fit fittings – what sounds like a contradiction is the new patented technology from Zewotherm for metal composite pipe for under-floor and general heating as well as sanitary applications. While pushing the pipe into the fitting a metallic press ring inside the push fit fitting jumps out and presses the pipe completely tight and inseparable onto the supporting shell of the fitting. The family-run company provides a 25 year warranty for the system.
Quick, safe and clean: To work the new connector system from Zewotherm neither a compression tool nor time-consuming training is required. Clean installation for heating or potable water pipe and easy handling enable plumbers to save time and money, and for the complete piping system a 25 year warranty is provided. (more…)

Paving the way to ultimate globalization, and also combining multiple applications(drinking water,heating,gas,etc) in one pipe, the KIWA & KOMO certificates we just obtained for our PEX/AL/PEX multilayer pipes and press fittings are among the almost 50 overseas certificates we have obtained so far. Our newly obtained KIWA & KOMO certificates currently cover both drinking water (with KIWA mark) and heating application(with KOMO mark), with certified dimensions including 16 X 2mm, 20 X 2mm, 25 X 2,5mm and 32 X 3mm, our KIWA-approved press fitting is made of hygiene-approved De-Zincification Resistant brass.

At the ISH 2009 Uponor has introduced the new generation of the multi layer composite pipe system for tap water installation and radiator heating. The important innovation of the system for the outer dimensions from 14 up to 32 mm: No more calibration and bevelling is needed. For the plumber that means less tools and to save one entire working step which leads to a time reduction of about 30% for the press connection. After cutting, the pipe can immediately be inserted into the fitting and afterwards has only to be pressed with the respective tool. The further advantages of the innovative system are still valid.
