In March 2025, DS Jindal Group inaugurated its latest Jindal PVC Manufacturing Unit in Pantnagar, Uttarakhand India, in collaboration with esteemed AdyGroup. The expansion aims to meet the growing demand for superior PVC pipes and fittings in India. The plant, set to reach a production capacity milestone of 1,500 tons by 2026, is expected to boost local employment and contribute positively to the region's economy. The company plans to expand its PVC manufacturing operations in Chhattisgarh by year-end, followed by additional units in Hyderabad, Bihar, and Coimbatore.
<h2>Rising Demand for Environmentally Friendly PVC Pipes in Water and Sewer System</h2>
Growing demand for environment-friendly PVC pipes in water and sewer systems as cities and utilities prioritize sustainability and long-term performance. The polyvinyl chloride pipes are increasingly chosen for their low environmental impact, durability, and recyclability. Their production requires less energy and generates minimal waste compared to traditional materials, and their smooth surfaces reduce pumping costs and water loss by preventing leaks. These pipes resist corrosion and scaling, leading to a longer service life and less frequent replacement, which conserves resources and reduces material waste. Innovations such as PVC liners for renewing old pipelines further enhance their sustainability by extending infrastructure lifespan with minimal environmental disruption. Additionally, PVC pipes are fully recyclable, supporting circular economy goals and helping utilities and municipalities meet stricter environmental standards and sustainability targets for water delivery and sewage management.
In March 2024, JM Eagle Co., Inc, world&rsquo;s largest manufacturer of PVC pipes, announced for constructing a USD 9 million five-level addition at the plant located in Wilton city Fairfield County, United States. The expansion is part of the company's efforts to produce environmentally friendly plastic pipes that deliver exceptional performance for water and sewer systems. This expansion was the first phase of the construction completed in January 2025.
Rapidly Growing Water Distribution Sector
As urbanization accelerates and infrastructure development expands, particularly in emerging economies, there is a pressing need for modern, efficient, and reliable water supply systems to support growing populations.&nbsp;PVC pipes have become the preferred choice for water distribution due to their durability, corrosion resistance, lightweight nature, and cost-effectiveness, making installation and long-term maintenance easier compared to traditional materials like metal or concrete.&nbsp;Governments and municipalities are investing heavily in upgrading aging water infrastructure and expanding piped water access, especially in regions such as Asia-Pacific and North America, where urban growth and infrastructure projects are robust.&nbsp;The residential sector, in particular, accounts for a significant share of PVC pipe usage, driven by the need for safe and reliable water delivery in new housing developments and urban expansions. Additionally, commercial and municipal water distribution networks are increasingly adopting PVC pipes to ensure efficient water management and reduce leakage. The inherent advantages of PVC such as long service life, resistance to chemical and environmental degradation, and lower lifecycle costs further reinforce its role as a critical material in the modernization of global water distribution systems.
In December 2023, Welspun Corporation, a subsidiary of Sintex BAPL announced for investing USD 95 million for building a manufacturing facility in Telangana India for CPVC, UPVC, HDPE, and OPVC pipes targeting the rapidly growing water distribution sector. The project will be financed through a mix of debt and equity and aims to produce approximately 59 KMTPA of Plastic Pipes, 5,300 MTPA of Water Storage Tanks, and 8,900 MTPA Sandwich Moulded Tanks.
<h2>Market for Molecular Oriented Polyvinyl Chloride Pipes Undergoing Through Noticeable Development</h2>
The market for molecularly oriented polyvinyl chloride (PVC-O) pipes is experiencing significant development, driven by technological advancements and growing demand for high-performance piping solutions. PVC-O pipes, produced through molecular orientation processes, offer enhanced tensile strength, impact resistance, and lightweight properties compared to conventional PVC pipes, making them ideal for pressure applications in water supply, sewage systems, and industrial uses. The global PVC-O pipes market is projected to grow steadily, with Asia-Pacific leading due to rapid urbanization, infrastructure investments, and government initiatives in water management. Innovations like molecular orientation technology enable manufacturers to produce pipes that withstand extreme conditions while reducing material usage, aligning sustainability goals. The prominent players are expanding production capacities and focusing on R&amp;D to cater to diverse sectors such as building and construction, agriculture and irrigation for further accelerating market growth
In May 2024, Westlake Pipe &amp; Fittings plans for building a new molecular-oriented polyvinyl chloride (PVCO) pipes plant in Wichita Falls, Texas. The expansion will add a 190,000 square-foot facility to the existing site, leveraging the region's strategic location. The investment will enhance Westlake's product portfolio with PVCO pipe manufacturing, an advanced molecular-oriented PVC pipe introduced in Canada in 2021. The innovative material offers superior strength, durability, potable water conveyance, and a reduced environmental footprint.
<h2>Rising Demand For PVC Pipes in Plumbing and Water Irrigation</h2>
Rapid urbanization and infrastructure development, especially in emerging economies, are increasing the need for reliable water supply and efficient irrigation systems. PVC pipes are favored in these applications due to their durability, corrosion resistance, lightweight nature, and ease of installation, making them cost-effective compared to traditional materials. In plumbing, the expansion of residential and commercial construction is boosting demand for PVC pipes, as they offer long service life and require minimal maintenance, ensuring uninterrupted water delivery and reducing long-term costs. In agriculture, the need for efficient water management and the push for higher crop yields are leading to greater adoption of PVC pipes for irrigation, as they prevent water loss, resist chemical exposure, and support large-scale piping networks economically. Additionally, technological advancements have enhanced the flexibility and strength of PVC pipes, further expanding their use in both plumbing and irrigation. Government initiatives focused on improving water infrastructure and sanitation, along with growing awareness about water conservation, are also supporting the sustained growth of PVC pipes in these sectors.
In May 2023, Charlotte Pipe and Foundry Company, an American iron casting and pipe manufacturing company announced to build a USD 80 million manufacturing facility in Maize Kansas, United States. The Maize facility is the seventh plastic pipe plant in the United States which commenced its production in January 2024 and due for completion by mid-2025. Additionally, this 134,000-square-foot plant will have premier access to the Kansas &amp; Oklahoma Railroad, aiding in the company&rsquo;s continued success and swift production of PVC pipes for plumbing and irrigation applications.
