Copper pipes for industrial use

CUPRUMFOMA has always been attentive to the continuous evolution of the use of copper pipe for energies other than oil. That’s why it’s been supplying for many years the most important companies producing geothermal plants. The copper pipe and its coating represent the ideal solution to exploit the geothermal exchange offered by the most modern technologies in geothermal.

Dimensions	Coil length
7,94 x 0,5	75 m
9,52 x 0,6	75 m
10 x 0,7	75 m
12 x 0,8	75 m
16 x 1	75 m
18 x 1	75 m
22 x 1	75 m

In compliance with the specific customer’s requirements, pipes can be produced according to different standardized regulations or, when requested, with different diameters, wall thicknesses and lengths, once the technical feasibility has been verified.
