suitable for commercial and
industrial drainage applications.
Geberit HDPE is a versatile, high
density polyethylene pipe system
with a complete range of fittings and
sizes to suit most drainage
applications.
It features:
· Resistance to impact -
unbreakable at room temperature
with excellent impact resistance
at temperatures as low as -40
o
C
· Crush resistance - when crushed
or bent will return to original
shape
· Extensive range of fittings and
pipe sizes from 32 mm to 315 mm
· Flexible and secure jointing
methods: butt welding,
electroweld coupling, screw
thread jointing, ring-seal jointing
Authority The Geberit HDPE
system
complies with BS EN 1519
and its pipes and fittings are the
subject of Agrément Cert. 92/2796.

different angles
Access pipes
Ball fittings
Electrofusion couplings,
expansion and ring-seal sockets,
flanges
Screw threaded joints
Adaptors for different pipe materials
-
enabling HDPE pipes to be joined
to pipes of other materials

-40 to +100
o
C.
Durability The Geberit HDPE

Geberit Silent-db20 is the essential
drainage system for buildings with
increased levels of soundproofing.
Its outstanding acoustic properties
are achieved using patented high
density material specially developed
for this purpose. Ribbed fittings
further improve sound dampening
near impact zones and acoustically
insulated pipe brackets prevent
solid-borne sound.
