Did You Know...

HousePex's molecular orientation is achieved during extrusion, which is a very unique process. Peroxide cross-linking occurs simultaneously with the orientation and guarantees optimal tubing properties (pex stands for polyethylene cross-linked).

EVOH - Refers to a type of oxygen barrier that is commonly used in Pex Tubing. EVOH stands for ethylene vinyl alcohol, this compound prevents oxygen diffusion and is bonded to the Pex during the manufacturing process.

HousePex is Manufactured in Sweden on state-of-the-art
extruding machines, uses Peroxide Extrusion which is the most
flexible / strongest and meets SDR-9 specification (standard dimensional ratio).
