Geberit PE Durable polyethylene drainage system
Durable PE pipes – ready for anything
The polyethylene (PE) pipe material is extremely lightweight yet impressively durable. The Geberit PE drainage system is capable of withstanding major temperature fluctuations, pressure, and aggressive chemicals such as alkalis and acids. The robust Geberit PE pipes are available in all standard diameters ranging from d32 to d315, and the range of fittings – including the special fittings – is as comprehensive as it gets.
The non-positive connection technology allows Geberit PE to be used in a wide range of applications without special sound insulation requirements, such as embedding in concrete or for building and roof drainage.
Systems can either be installed directly on site or preassembled at the workshop.
Geberit PE is also available in combination with the space-saving Geberit SuperTube technology.
Why choose Geberit PE?
Non-positive connection
The non-positive connection technology can be used for virtually any drainage application.
Resistant to chemicals
The Geberit PE drainage system is resistant to most standard alkalis, acids and chemicals.
High discharge capacity and more living space
Geberit PE is hydraulically optimised for greater cost-efficiency with reduced space requirements while ensuring high discharge capacity.
Suitable for walls and floors
The robust Geberit PE pipes can be laid in concrete or in the ground.
Main applications and areas of use
Syphonic roof drainage system
Geberit PE’s high resistance to pressure makes it a reliable choice for syphonic roof drainage systems like Geberit Pluvia.
Prefabrication
For larger construction projects, system structures can be easily prefabricated at the workshop.
Laying in concrete and in the ground
The robust Geberit PE pipelines can be embedded in concrete or laid in the ground in accordance with static and other recognised technical regulations.
Industrial applications
Thanks to its robust material properties, Geberit PE is suitable for a wide range of industrial drainage applications.
Space-saving drainage in high-rise buildings
In combination with SuperTube technology, Geberit PE fittings can be used as a space-saving drainage system in high-rise buildings.
Projects with fire protection requirements
Fire tests were carried out in accordance with the EN 1366-3 standard for a wide range of different installation situations. In combination with the Geberit fire protection sleeve RS90 Plus EN, the Geberit PE drainage system is approved for a fire resistance of 90 minutes (ETA/ETB).
Connection technologies for Geberit PE With non-positive connection
Geberit PE pipes and fittings are welded quickly and easily to form a permanent leakproof seal. Welding joints are made either using butt welding equipment or the Geberit electrofusion coupling, with a full range of tools and accessories available.
The welding joints of Geberit PE pipes remain reliably leakproof for many years, offering real peace of mind to building owners and plumbers alike. These welding joints are also suitable for prefabrication and laying the pipes in concrete.
Save time with prefabrication
For larger construction projects, system structures can be easily prefabricated at the workshop. What’s more, their low weight makes it easy to carry prefabricated systems to higher floors for installation.
Suitable for laying in concrete
Geberit PE pipes can also be laid in concrete thanks to their non-positive welding joints. The Geberit cast-in concrete bracket ensures accurate positioning and secure fixing, offering a user-friendly, flexible solution that can withstand the forces of flowing concrete.
