NUPIGECO has again placed itself at the forefront of marketposition through innovation with new market leading products.

The bio-fuel market is in constant growth. Some suppliers haverecently claimed their piping systems were suitable for bio-fuelslike ethanol etc., however, there has been no mention if this alsoapplies to their fittings, an important and integral component of asystem. These fuels can have serious effects on steel or brassfittings and have the capability of causing failures.



As the market leading manufacturer for many years in the development of suitable products forbio-fuels like bio-diesel, ethanol and blends, Ad-Blue etc., we canproudly state that NUPIGECO’s Smartflex system has the complete range of piping and fittings suitable forthe conveyance of these bio-fuels.

NUPIGECO’s Smartflex piping system is already fully approved for any concentration ofethanol fuel and its complete range of nickel plated fittings arespecifically designed for the conveyance of ethanol, whereas itsstainless steel fittings and piping are specifically designed forthe conveyance of Ad-Blue. These are already well known, acceptedand used extensively in the market as they have already beenavailable for a number of years.

Experts say, ethanol can be corrosive in any concentration and willattack vulnerable materials such as mild steel and brass. The rateof the effect will vary depending upon its concentration. Thehigher the concentration of the blend, the faster the resultingeffects. Nickel plating of brassware provides excellent protectionagainst the chemical attack by ethanol blends up to mediumconcentrations. Stainless steel should be used for higherconcentrations.

NUPIGECO has a readily available complete range of Smartflex E-Blend fittings utilising either a specialised nickel plating orstainless steel for protection against the chemical attack byethanol.

NUPIGECO’s Smartflex E-Blend fittings are the right solution to the problem.
