PVC Pipes Market Share

The unplasticised PVC segment maintains its dominance in the market owing to its growing applications in sewerage, waste, and drainage sectors

Unplasticised PVC pipes account for a significant share of the PVC pipes market owing to their rising application in the transportation of sewage, underground drainage, waste, and drinking water. They are a less porous material which increases the strength of the pipes and reduces the maintenance requirement. The lead-free property reduces the risk of contamination and increases its application in the healthcare and hospitality sectors. Increasing awareness regarding the importance of adequate sewage and plumbing maintenance is also anticipated to increase the demand for unplasticised PVC pipes further in the coming years.

Chlorinated PVC pipes are anticipated to witness sizeable growth in the coming years as CPVC pipes can withstand higher temperatures than standard PVC pipes. While PVC pipes are typically suitable for temperatures up to 140°F (60°C), CPVC pipes can handle temperatures up to 200°F (93°C). This makes CPVC pipes ideal for hot and cold water lines in residential and commercial buildings.

The sewerage sector accounts for a major PVC pipes market share as PVC pipes offer a corrosion-resistant and durable pipe solution for sewers

The sewerage sector occupies a dominant market share. PVC pipes are highly resistant to environmental degradation, chemical rotting, corrosion, and abrasion which makes them ideal for sewerage applications, where the pipe material may be exposed to a variety of substances, including acidic and basic effluents. Their durability leads to a longer service life, often exceeding 100 years, reducing the need for frequent replacements and repairs. The joining methods used for PVC pipes, such as gasketed bell and spigot joints or solvent welding, create a watertight seal that prevents the leakage of sewage and the infiltration of groundwater which is crucial for maintaining sanitary conditions and preventing the contamination of surrounding soil and water bodies.

The water supply sector is also anticipated to gain robust growth in the PVC pipes market in the coming years. Unlike metal pipes, PVC pipes do not corrode when exposed to water, which makes them ideal for water supply systems. This corrosion resistance ensures that the water remains free from contamination that can occur from corroded metal pipes.
