ecoFITTOM®: the solution for the uniformity in the water networks

Molecor, in its continuous process of Research and Development has developed and exclusive and highly efficient industrial system for the manufacture of PVC-O fittings, with which the company has been capable of manufacturing a product with better mechanical properties.

ecoFITTOM®, the first fittings in the world in PVC-O, present excellent improvements in the mechanical properties of PVC. These improvements allow to manufacture ecoFITTOM® consuming less raw material and less energy obtaining a product with higher hydrostatic resistance and higher resistance to impact than fittings of other materials. Besides this, ecoFITTOM® presents an excellent behavior against water hammer, complete watertight, maximum chemical resistance and ductility.

With ecoFITTOM® Molecor offers a continuous system in PVC-O; this material continuity guarantees the same hydraulic and mechanical properties in the different elements of the network, in the pipes as well as in the fittings.

This fact, guarantees, at the same time, total water quality and, as it has just been said, an important reduction of the water hammer effect.

Molecor’s commitment to environment can also be seen in the ecoFITTOM® manufacturing process. This is a 100% recyclable product for which manufacture it is necessary a lower quantity of raw material but offering, at the same time, the best properties for the conveyance of water under pressure.

These fittings can be used in networks for the transportation of drinking water, irrigation systems, industrial applications, sewage, infrastructure networks, fire protection nets, etc. among other applications.
