CPVC Compound “Durastream”

A wide range of performance requirements are placed on hot and cold water supply pipework, including heat resistance to withstand high temperatures, durability and strength for long-term use, and water safety.

CPVC pipes and fittings made from the CPVC compound “Durastream” are highly suitable for hot and cold water supply pipework applications.

What is “Durastream”?

Durastream is a CPVC compound product offered by the Sekisui Chemical Group.

The name Durastream is derived from two words – Durable (tough, enduring) and Stream (water flow).
Durastream is a CPVC compound that is widely used in a variety of applications, the most typical of which are pipe materials for hot water supply and water piping applications.
The word ʻDurable’ represents the image that Durastream continues to protect the world’s water infrastructure from various threats due to its robustness backed up by its high performance and high quality, while the word ʻStream The word ʻStream’ is used to express the image of the safe and secure flow of water that supports the lives of people around the world through the high performance and quality of our products.
The continuous flow of pure water gives the image of progress towards a better future.

Combining these two words, Durable and Stream, we have created a word that has never existed before in the world: Durastream.
It also expresses our wish to create a unique value that has never existed in the world before.

Why “Durastream” for hot and cold water supply pipework?

The pipework (pipes and fittings) from the water heater to the tap must be heat resistant to hot water.
It is also important that they are resistant to deterioration caused by chlorine in the water and that they are resistant to water quality deterioration and flow pressure caused by scale build-up in the pipes due to corrosion.

CPVC Pipes and fittings made from Durastream are used in many applications, but are particularly successful in hot and cold water supply pipework.
It is used in hot water and water supply pipework applications because of its particularly high heat resistance and chlorine resistance among plastic materials, its resistance to rust and scaling like metal materials, and its excellent mechanical strength.

The strengths of “Durastream” are its superior performance, extensive implementation support and international certification.

Superior Performance

Durastream exhibits excellent performance in various aspects such as heat resistance, flame resistance, low smoke generation, mechanical strength, insulation, voltage resistance, and chemical resistance.

Certified standards


“Durastream” is certified internationally by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF), a non-profit organisation in the USA, which sets safety standards for food and drinking water sanitation equipment and products. The NSF is a third-party organization that sets safety standards for food and drinking water sanitation equipment and products.

While few CPVC manufacturers worldwide have achieved the stringent NSF certification, Durastream has achieved NSF 61 (assessing the health effects of materials and products for drinking water applications) and NSF 14 (plastic pipe components and associated materials). “Durastream” has proven its high level of safety for piping in drinking water applications.
