Atika' PVC Pipes & Fittings
The use of PVC for production of pipes and related products is one of the most important things to happen in this century, where a new material and technology has been able to fulfill the basic need of assured availability of clean and hygienic water.
Traditional material such as steel, cast iron, stoneware, asbestos suffer from problems of corrosion, health hazards, cost, transportation, breakage and a short as well as uncertain life span. 'ATIKA' PVC pipes involves none of these problems.
