Aquasystem is a reliable, high‑quality PP‑R system
Engineered for all demands: AQUASYSTEM is the lightweight pipe system for residential and commercial buildings as well as healthcare facilities and marine suitable for hot and cold water applications. Made of PP-R and PP-RCT, the pipe system features high temperature and pressure resistance, is hygienically safe, and eligible for use in drinking water supply systems. Thanks to its chemical resistance behavior, the system is also the long-lasting choice for transferring or discharging chemical media.

The product rage of Aquasystem
AQUASYSTEM consists of three PP-R piping systems for different performance requirements based on temperature, pressure, and application.
- PP-R monolayer for cold water and basic hot water installations in residential and non residential buildings.
- PP-R glass fiber reinforced for hot water and heating applications with reduced thermal expansion.
- PP RCT glass fiber reinforced for high temperatures, high pressures, and demanding industrial and high rise applications.
All systems cover dimensions from d20 to d160, comply with EN 15874 and DIN 8077, and are suitable for drinking water. A uniform jointing technology ensures safe and efficient installation across all product lines.
Types of PP-R Systems and their applications
- Standard (PN10-PN20)
- Glass Fiber Reinforced (PN20-PN25)
- UV-Resistant (PN20-PN25)
PP-RCT Innovation
- PP-RCT, with β-nucleation, handles higher pressures, temperatures, and chlorine resistance.
- Glass-Fiber Reinforced: PN20 (SDR9), PN25 (SDR7.4)
Applications
- Central heating, hot/cold water, drinking water
- Industrial piping (chemicals)
- Air conditioning, solar collector

At GF, quality is more than a promise
Swiss Quality ensured
A key example is the production site in Çerkezköy, Turkey, where GF AQUASYSTEM is manufactured based on Swiss GF standards. This facility achieved carbon neutral operations in 2025, reducing emissions by 95% compared to the 2019 baseline and cutting waste by 36% through circular economy practices. As part of GF’s Carbon Neutral Operations concept, these achievements not only minimize our environmental footprint – they also elevate our research, development, and manufacturing capabilities into true centers of excellence. This strengthens GF’s position as a global leader in sustainable Flow solutions and ensures that every AQUASYSTEM product embodies both quality and responsibility
Reference case: Luxera Towers, Istanbul
Made for all conditions
For the developers of the Luxera Towers, plumbing systems belong to the most important components in the building. Especially clean water lines are defined as a critical infrastructural element in terms of quality of life and building safety.
