Data Centers

Leading-edge plastic piping systems for your cooling plant: efficient, reliable and with low carbon foot-print.

Show Applications Contact Us

Our plastic piping solutions for cooling applications are the result of years of pioneering innovation, providing owners and operators of data centers with a quicker set-up and more efficient and reliable operation during the entire service life of their projects.

value-bar-icon-6 25% less energy consumption

Our piping solutions can help to reduce average energy cost by 25%, thanks to the low thermal conductivity of our factory pre-insulated pipes, valves, and fittings.

wolke High environmental contribution

Over their entire service life, plastic systems have a carbon dioxide balance that is 80% lower than that of metal systems and are also fully recyclable. This increases the energy efficiency of your system and also makes an important contribution to the environment.

value-bar-icon-3 100% maintenance-free

The systems are maintenance-free for 25 years, vapor-tight and resistant to weather and UV. This reduces the maintenance requirements and running costs of the cooling system and ensures reliable operation.

value-bar-icon-1 Full solution delivery

Get support during all project phases, from engineering calculations during the design of the project to proper installation of our products and prefabricated components on the project site.

Complete system solutions for your applications

GF Piping Systems offers a range of complete systems developed specifically for the applications in a data center to offer optimal added-value. From outdoor systems, where our solutions are lightweight and completely 100 % weather-resistant, to indoor water distribution, including white spaces, with our double-containment system with leak detection. See below how we can solve some of the main pipe applications existing in a Data Center.

Chilled water on rooftops

Pipe systems for chillers and condenser units on rooftops are exposed to extreme environmental conditions (temperature variations, rain, UV radiation etc.). For such conditions, our solutions are designed for a lifespan of 25 years with constant high performance.

Direct liquid cooling in computer rooms

The use of liquid-cooled servers, despite offering clear efficiency benefits, also raises safety and reliability issues as pressurized water moves very close to the CPUs. Avoid risk in critical applications by relying on the global expert in top-quality, pressure-bearing plastic piping systems.

Chilled water pumping stations and machine rooms

Prefabricating pump station skids in controlled working conditions off-site offers considerable advantages: The low weight of plastic enables large skids to be prefabricated off-site and delivered in practically 'plug-in' condition to the project site. Furthermore, GF Piping Systems offers a wide range of compatible manual and actuated plastic and metal valves, designed to be integrated cleanly into the complete plastic system.

Our dedicated customer portal

We have developed a specific Data Center Portal designed to help and guide our customers through the conversion process from metallic piping to a complete plastic engineered solution. As well as explaining the detailed applications in a Data Centers where GF pipes are applicable, the portal also provides valuable technical data to key engineering questions.
