aquatherm
FROM 1 GARAGE TO 75 COUNTRIES
In 1973, experienced tradesman Gerhard Rosenberg discovers that polypropylene is an ideal material for in-floor radiant heating tubing. He begins manufacturing the polypropylene pipe, known as aquatherm, in his garage in Attendorn, Germany. From these humble beginnings, a global plastic pipe manufacturing company is born.

During the next four decades, Rosenberg works with a constantly evolving, world-class team, which eventually includes his three sons, Dirk, Maik and Christof. They introduce innovation after innovation, all centered on polypropylene pipe and fittings.

Today, aquatherm and its global network employ 600+ worldwide. aquatherm GmbH manufactures polypropylene pipe up to two feet in diameter. aquatherm pipe is installed in 75+ countries.

AQUATHERM GREEN PIPE

Faster to install. Corrosion-free. Lasts for decades. These are just a few of the many benefits of aquatherm's PP-RCT and PP-R pipe.
Faster installation

FASTER INSTALLATION

  • Heat-fused connections are fast, strong and flexible, reducing installation costs while preventing cracks and leaks.
  • Aquatherm pipe is lightweight, making it easier and safer to handle.
  • PP-R and PP-RCT provide long-lasting performance with reduced maintenance.
Reliable

RELIABLE

  • Backed by decades of research and engineering.
  • Designed for reliable long-term performance.
  • Polypropylene is chemically inert and highly resistant to many chemicals.
  • Suitable for demanding high-purity water applications.
Sustainability

SUSTAINABILITY

  • Polypropylene piping helps protect drinking water and the environment.
  • Resistant to corrosion and scaling.
  • Reliable, lightweight and sustainable solution for pressurized systems.

PP-R AND PP-RCT PIPE, FITTINGS & PARTS

Product advantages

Here is a robust catalog of polypropylene pipe fittings and parts available to make designing and installing PP-R and PP-RCT piping easy. Aquatherm pipes and fittings are made from polypropylene and designed for heat fusion.

When properly executed, fusion joining provides a connection that is stronger than the pipe itself. Aquatherm also offers specialty transitions such as brass and steel threaded fittings, flange adaptors, PEX adapters and copper stub outs.
