PE100 high density polyethylene is the most important polymer for pressure applications since about 30 years and it is widely used for water supply, gas transport and, due to its high chemical resistance, for industrial applications.

Nowadays, different types of pipes are available according to specific needs: from the classic single wall PE100 pipe to the two or three layer pipes made of PE100 and PE100 RC with high resistance to slow crack growth and finally to PE100 pipes with an outer peelable layer for no-dig applications.
