Product Description
BorPEX HE2595 is a high molecular weight, high density polyethylene specially designed for production of crosslinked pipes (PE-X).

The product is used for single as well as for multilayer pipes, where you then differentiate between plastic multilayer with integrated EVOH layer and aluminium multilayer pipes.

BorPEX HE2595 is intended to fulfill following standards and regulations, in case of appropriate industrial manufacturing standard procedures applied and a continuous quality system is implemented.
