Our solutions

Plumber measuring water flow.
Salamander’s AquaScan precisely measure pressure, flow, temperature, and hardness via total dissolved solids (TDS)/ in one unit, enabling users to measure water pump and heating efficiency within the heating system.

Measuring water efficiency

Cistermiser’s core technologies include infra-red, non-touch controls and manual push-button systems that ensure water only flows when facilities are in use. When Cistermiser water management controls are installed across a building’s washrooms, water savings of up to 80% can be achieved compared with uncontrolled systems.

Water efficiency solutions

Flowers in a garden.
Green roofs, like our Sky Garden green roof solutions, help mitigate the increasing problem of climate change by reducing and absorbing carbon. Plants absorb carbon dioxide and convert it into glucose through photosynthesis. 20 m2 of green roof space can on average absorb 100kg of carbon per year.

Urban greening solutions

Drainage plant in construction.
Polypipe’s range of drainage solutions is tailored to effectively mitigate surface water flooding through effective, controlled retention, attenuation and infiltration at source and further afield. This helps to protect infrastructure and communities.

Polysync, a cloud-based control system, forecasts weather events to optimise water volumes stored in attenuation tanks to help mitigate extreme weather events caused by climate change. The system will forecast weather activity and instruct the attenuation tanks to reduce or maximise their stored water, to accommodate for rainfall or to maximise portable water storage to use in the event of drought.

Plumbing solutions image
Our solutions are designed with efficient installation in mind. Our recently launched PolyPlumb Enhanced plumbing solution combines 25 years of customer feedback to deliver innovative technology and progressive design. This, with a new patented technology, gives customers reliability and confidence in fitting the PolyPlumb system.

Enhanced plumbing solutions

Our business units
Due to skills shortages and a desire to achieve process efficiencies by off-site manufacturing, customers are looking to reduce time on-site on repetitive tasks around cutting and jointing. The Advantage proposition by Polypipe Building Services is now being supplemented by the Stax range of HDPE prefabricated sub-assemblies, reducing time on site, and improving consistency of jointing.

Football fever: Permavoid

Sports pitches occupy a significant surface area in cities worldwide. The Permavoid sports’ systems are based on circularity in both material choice and functionality, and are characterised as nature-based solutions. Permavoid brings pitches closer to nature by integrating on-site water management at foundation level; capturing, storing and reusing. With stormwater re-use and minimal drinking water consumption, we enable natural, hybrid and synthetic pitches to feel cool and play as if they were all-natural grass, optimising playability and turf quality.
