The difference between plastic water pipes and thin-walled stainless steel water pipes
The common type of water pipes used in home decoration are plastic pipes (PPR). They are prone to leakage. So why are plastic pipes still widely used? Currently, a large number of so-called PPR pipes on the market are made of "modified polypropylene". Most manufacturers, under the huge market pressure, resort to improper bidding methods to meet the market demand.
The hygiene performance of plastic water pipes is poor, and the health issues related to plastic water pipes have always been a concern for people. Over the past 20 years, people have realized that there is a condition called cancer, which is caused by environmental deterioration or the outbreak of diseases resulting from long-term accumulation. But how many people know that the plastic water pipes we use actually contain such causative factors? When producing plastic pipes, additives such as plasticizers and antioxidants must be added, and these chemicals are all carcinogenic to the human body.
So which type of water pipe is safe and reliable? Which one is worth our trust and safe to use? Thin-walled stainless steel water pipes should be our first choice. They are safe and non-toxic, will not cause secondary pollution to the water quality, and are harmless to human health. They have played an important practical significance in enhancing the taste of modern buildings in our country, improving water supply quality, reducing overall costs, ensuring people's health and saving water resources.
