The
roots of modern flexible push-fit plumbing systems can be traced
back some 25 years, to the time when Hepworth introduced its first
flexible range. At that time, copper was the undisputed market leader
for domestic and commercial plumbing pipe installations.
Early
systems were positioned primarily as problem solving products, with
their greatest success being in niche markets. However, the potential
of these systems and the benefits both to installers and end users
were apparent. Hepworth launched the Hep2O® system,
drawing on some 10 years of experience with its predecessor, in
1991.
From
that time the system has been progressively expanded so that it
meets the needs of virtually all domestic, industrial and commercial
applications. The company has been largely responsible for the development
of the flexible plumbing system market, with sales of Hep2O®
consistently rising, year-on-year.
Today,
flexible systems are the preferred choice for a growing number of
major house builders and plumbing contractors, and are increasingly
requested by householders because of their performance advantages.
Hep2O®
continues to set the pace in product development. It is the most
comprehensive flexible plumbing range available, uses highly sophisticated
jointing technology, benefits from over 25 years of experience and,
uniquely in the industry, is backed by a 50 year guarantee.
