Polyethylene pipes come in various color options, each following the HDPE pipe color code. The purpose of these different colors is to signify the type of liquid or gas transported within the pipe.
Please note that poly pipe stripe color coding and requirements may vary in different countries or states.
If you have any uncertainties regarding the color coding of PE pipe stripes, we recommend consulting with a certified engineer.
If you need further assistance in identifying a specific pipe color, please don’t hesitate to contact our team at 1300 270 270.

Acu-Power Electrical Conduit is manufactured from High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) with an orange co-extruded outer layer for clear identification.
Advances in cable technologies, as well as the expense of repairs, have driven preferences for protective conduit over that of direct burial.
Acu-Power conduit provides superior mechanical protection to electrical cables, as well as protection from moisture or chemicals and even, in some cases, animals.
The permanent pathway provided by conduit also facilitates replacement projects or future installations of additional cable or duct.
The Acu-Black PE100 Pipe System incorporates the largest range of pipe and fittings manufactured from high density PE100 material.
Acu-Black pipe and fittings are utilised in a wide range of fluid and gas applications across the plumbing, mining, civil, energy and mechanical services markets.
Built on nearly 50 years of industry research and innovation, PE pipes have a track record of exceptional performance and durability in many demanding applications.
Water is a precious resource in Australia’s dry climate, and this has led to its conservation through the use of Recycled or Reclaimed (grey) water sources, and rainwater catchment
systems.
Non-potable water supply is now an important part of sustainable building design.
The standard AS3500.1:2003 “Water services” requires that the system be kept entirely separate from the potable water supply, and that the piping be colour-coded and labelled to
identify it as non-potable.
Pipe System for Warm, Hot and Cold-Water Pipelines
The Acu-Tech PP-R system has been designed for the use both in sanitary applications for the supply of hot and cold water, and in the heating and air-conditioning industry.
The system can also be used for industrial applications for transporting chemicals and liquid foods.
PP-R is an acronym for Polypropylene Random Copolymer.
