MLC Uni Pipe & SAC Uni Pipe PLUS

Uponor Uni Pipe - the way forward for hygienic plumbing installations

Uponor UK offer two systems within its Uni Pipe range for safe and reliable drinking water installations:

  • Multi-Layer Composite (MLC, Uni Pipe)- with over 3.8 billion metres of MLC sold since 1982, you can rest assured that this solution which combines the benefits of a metal and plastic pipe in one is the ideal choice for your next plumbing installation. The key features of this product include a 100% diffusion tight aluminium core for enhanced stability and a flexible polyethylene outer case. 
  • Seamless Aluminium Composite (SAC, Uni Pipe Plus)- developing the MLC range even further, Uponor's central innovation team in Germany have created the world's first composite pipe with a seamlessly extruded aluminium layer- SAC. This essentially ensures it is more flexible and bendable in tight installation situations in comparison to MLC. Other benefits include:
  • Available as straight lengths and coils
  • Reduced installation times
  • Less components required, which reduces costs
  • Uni Pipe Plus straight lengths feature a special aluminium layer that is more rigid than conventional MLC
  • Provides a visually attractive, on-wall mounting solution

    Pre-insulated MLC pipe is also available on request for special projects
