Which is Better, PPR Pipe, or Aluminum-Plastic Pipe?

There are many differences between PPR (Polypropylene Random Copolymer) pipes and aluminum-plastic pipes in various factors such as price, performance, and environmental impact.

PPR Pipes

• PPR pipes are made from a type of plastic that is resistant to high temperatures and pressure, making them suitable for use in hot and cold water distribution systems, as well as heating and cooling systems.
• They are lightweight, easy to install, and have a long lifespan.
• Additionally, PPR pipes do not corrode, scale, or leach chemicals into the water supply.

Aluminum-Plastic Pipes

• Aluminum-Plastic pipes consist of an inner layer of cross-linked polyethylene (PEX) surrounded by a layer of aluminum, which is then coated in an outer layer of PEX.
• This composition provides excellent heat retention, making them ideal for use in radiant heating systems.
• It is not easy to grow bacteria and algae, it is not easy to cause water pollution, it is more hygienic and safe, and it is more in line with the definition of low-carbon environmental protection.
• Aluminum-Plastic pipes are also resistant to corrosion and are durable, making them a good choice for underground installations.

In summary, the choice between PPR pipes and Aluminum-Plastic pipes depends on the specific requirements of your application.

PPR pipes are generally used in daily hot and cold water piping systems, radiator heating systems, and pure water supply systems.

Aluminum-plastic pipes can be used in engineering projects such as heating piping systems, hot and cold water piping systems, solar air-conditioning distribution piping systems, and indoor natural gas piping systems.
