Poly Pipeline belongs to iKang Group, which is the vice president unit of Shanghai Building and Heating Branch, a member of the National Technical Committee for Standardization of Plastic Products, and has a certain right to speak in the field of heating.
Like Weixing, iKang is also a professional manufacturer of plastic pipes, with nearly 5,000 kinds of products, covering water supply and drainage, HVAC, municipal engineering and other fields, and Shanghai World Financial Center, the German Consulate in Shanghai, and Nanjing University all use iKang pipe products. At the same time, iKang also has water purifiers and central air conditioning products on sale, which is more diversified than Weixing's business.
iKang's production bases in China are located in Shanghai, Henan and Hunan, with a total construction area of 200,000 square meters, which is comparable to Weixing. However, iKang only has one R&D center, and there is a certain gap between it and Weixing in terms of technical strength.
In 2005, iKang acquired the American pipeline brand Poly, aiming to integrate superior resources through the acquisition of foreign brands, expanding the market scope, which did play a good role, after the acquisition, iKang set up a factory in Dusseldorf, Germany, responsible for the design, development and production of products in overseas markets, and the products are exported to more than 50 countries and regions, some famous foreign buildings such as the Philippine Twin Towers, Jamaica Spa Villas have used Poly brand pipes.
Poly floor heating pipes are available in PE-RT, PE-Xb, PB three materials, PE-RT pipe is their main product, the raw material comes from the United States Dow Chemical, reliable quality. The price of the three-layer oxygen barrier tube is 8.03 yuan, and the price of the five-layer oxygen barrier tube is 8.25 yuan, and the price gap is not large, so it is recommended to buy a five-layer oxygen barrier product with more solid materials. Poly water collector is made of brass, and foreign brands use integrated forging technology, no welding, higher strength, but the price of 1600 yuan is relatively high, and the product competitiveness is average.
