We empower sustainable transition and digital transformation for the maritime industry

Discover how we can support you and your projects with our plastic piping solutions:

  • lightweight
  • fast and easy installation
  • corrosion-free
  • maintenance-free
  • sustainable

From planning to commissioning - all over the world.

 

    Ballast Water System

    Discover our maintenance-free and corrosion resistant solutions.

    Air Conditioning (HVAC)

    Discover efficient solutions for comfort cooling on land and at sea.

    COOL-FIT

    Embrace the cold: Make your cooling circuit more efficient with robust pre-insulated plastic pipes and fittings for secondary cooling loops. Designed and optimized for fast and easy installation with electrofusion technology and an expected service life of at least 25 years of operations with zero interruptions and maintenance. The reliable and efficient alternative to post-insulated metal piping systems is ideal for HVAC/R and refrigeration applications requiring energy-efficient cooling.

    Butterfly Valve 565

    Beats metal in every round: The new Butterfly Valve 565, available in a waver and lug-style version, helps to optimize piping systems built for water applications on board. Made of high-quality plastics, the valve does not corrode, is 60% lighter than metal solutions and allows easy and direct replacement of existing plastic or metal valves. The 565 Lug-Style comes with many marine and water approvals, including NSF, DNV, Lloyds Register, and KTW-BWGL. Furthermore, it is the first industrial valve with an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD).

    Fresh Cold and Hot Water

    Discover corrosion-resistant solutions with 40% less noise generation

    iFIT - multilayer composition piping

    iFIT is the push-fit system from GF Industry and Infrastructure Flow Solutions with the unique modular adapter technology for plumbing and heating. Thanks to its modular system, iFIT provides more options using 50% fewer system components compared with conventional installation systems. This means low stocking at maximum flexibility.

    iFIT is suitable for all types of installation (such as single tap points, piece or looped installation) in new builds, conversions and renovations of small and large properties.

    JRG Sanipex MT - multilayer composition piping

    JRG Sanipex MT - the holistic system for hygienically perfect pipe connections. It is water pocket free and therefore hygienically flawless and safe. The flared clamp connection technology ensures that the connection does not provide a breeding ground for legionella or bacteria. The full pipe cross-section without dead space has further benefits. Only minimal flow noise is generated, and there are practically no pressure losses.

    Rely on tested safety: GF Industry and Infrastructure Flow Solutions has provided proof in a scientific expert opinion from the Fraunhofer Institute that all connection points meet sterility criteria.

    S-Press - multilayer composition piping

    S-Press PLUS is the perfect solution for ensuring permanently tight pipe connections. It’s 100 % backward compatible with current Uponor composite pipes and tools. Available in dimensions from 16 to 32 mm in both metal and plastic, S-Press PLUS is the fitting that knows no compromise: tough, safe, easy and smart. For dimension 40 to 75 mm we offer S-Press fittings with a PPSU body and for dimension 63 - 110 mm we off modular riser fittings, called Uponor RS. Besides we have a full portfolio of compression adapters, manifolds, mounting accessories and radiator connection fittings. 

    INSTAFLEX

    INSTAFLEX  System: Of all the available full plastic systems, polybutene is subject to the lowest rate of thermal expansion. As the expansion forces are much lower - 30 times lower than steel and 10 times lower than composite pipes. The material can absorb any expansion in itself. There is no need for expansion pieces or expansion joints. It also allows the use of commercially available fastenings and fixtures. The result: clean installations which are pleasing to the eye - even if space is tight. This means: • Space-saving installation • No maintenance • Easy installation
