The low density of the material makes it possible to produce really light materials, which gives the final product the ability to be much easier to transport and install.
It is a rigid component, difficult to deform and very resistant to different impacts, so it is perfect for pipe manufacturing.
It has a high chemical resistance. It is highly resistant to corrosion by both acidic and alkaline agents.
It is also very resistant to the action of detergents and electrolytic substances.
It is a great electrical insulator. This quality enables it to be used in the automotive and energy industries.
It is easy and feasible to recycle.
It has a low moisture absorption, so it is not damaged by water. Being a material that assimilates little water, it is very practical for drainage and sanitation networks.
It is very versatile and moldable, which increases the number of uses it can have and facilitates its manufacture, transport and installation.
Its low toxicity is what makes it the healthiest plastic, even for contact with food.
Resistant to high temperatures. Its melting point is 160º, which allows it to withstand high temperatures, unlike other plastics. This characteristic is basic for PP to be really suitable for, for example, fire-fighting systems.
