Did you know that Polypipe Building Products' Soil Systems are manufactured in Doncaster using single-piece moulding technology?

What does this mean?

Put simply, this advanced manufacturing process improves the performance, strength and longevity of the soil system. In addition, our innovative Ring Lock Seal helps prevent the seal from distorting or becoming dislodged during installation, providing a more secure and reliable joint every time.

Our Pointy Robert Clarke has been on site recently, putting our systems to the test. In his latest video, Pointy takes you through the seamless installation of a soil system, which also included an Air Admittance valve, utilising our robust PolySoil® range.

We understand that accurate planning is essential for efficient and cost-effective soil and waste management. That’s why we offer a comprehensive Soil and Waste CAD Design and Parts Take-Off Service, designed to support homeowners, developers, contractors, and specifiers in selecting the right components for their projects.
