High performance PB pipes

The vast range of applications in heating and sanitary engineering demands different types of pipe made from different materials. In addition to the technical production know-how this also requires appropriate expertise in providing user-related support to our customers. This expertise is reflected, among other things, in our wide spectrum of pipes available for heating, sanitary and air-conditioning applications.

Experience
Jansen has been manufacturing heating and sanitary pipes from polybutylene since 1978. Our wealth of practical experience in processing and using these pipes shows that polybutylene is one of the best materials for heating and sanitary applications. A high degree of flexibility, excellent thermal stability, low creep and high long-time rupture stress are typical properties of these materials.

Heating and sanitary pipes made from polybutylene
JANOlen PB heating and sanitary pipes are made from polybutylene, a material that has proved its value over decades. An extra barrier layer to prevent oxygen diffusion is added in the same process when manufacturing heating pipes. Above-average flexibility and excellent resistance to thermal and mechanical strains account for the popularity of this type of pipe in the field of heating and sanitary engineering.

Efficient logistics
In order to be able to guarantee optimal availability, Jansen has above-average storage capacity at its disposal. By arrangement with our partners, these warehouses can also be used for temporary storage of customer products.
