Stainless-steel drainage and pressure plumbing products

Blucher Australia supplies stainless-steel plumbing products for drainage and pressure systems. Our drainage products are all manufactured by Blucher in Denmark; our pressure products are all called Mapress, and manufactured by Geberit in Sweden. Blucher stainless-steel products are easy to maintain, compatible with conventional systems and quick to install. 

For demanding plumbing environments, the popularity of stainless steel is growing dramatically in Australasia, as it has been in Europe for decades. Blucher high-grade stainless steel is durable, non-corrosive and designed to carry liquids or gas, in the toughest situations. In addition, stainless steel significantly outlives its traditional competitors - PVC, HDPE and cast iron – making it a sound investment.

Stainless-steel drainage and pressure systems

In the mining industry, Blucher drainage and pressure systems work side by side. Fluids and compressed air often need to be ‘pressured’ in, and all types of waste – hot corrosive or chemical – need to be drained away.

Blucher stainless-steel drainage and pressure plumbing systems can deal with these issues. They are ideal where temperature demands and reliability are crucial, or where aggressive fumes and fluids are present. In plants that work around the clock, shutdown time is costly. Blucher systems enable fast maintenance and repairs, resulting in less expense.

Stainless-steel drainage plumbing products

Blucher Australia supplies high-performance stainless-steel drainage plumbing products designed for demanding corrosion and hygiene-sensitive environments. The extensive range of Danish-manufactured products for industrial, commercial and domestic use includes:

• The EuroPipe® push-fit stainless steel system for hot water drainage, vacuum or low pressure pumping; widely used in food processing, laboratories, stormwater drainage, and black and grey water systems
• Light duty drains for shower, bathroom, washdown and aquatic areas; these work in conjunction with Europipe stainless-steel pipes and fittings to provide a complete drainage system
• Industrial Drains® for hot water plumbing and where demanding loads and high drainage flows are required; designed to push straight into the Europipe stainless-steel pipes and fittings to provide a complete drainage system
• Channel® for linear drainage for commercial and industrial developments; also used in conjunction with the stainless-steel pipes and fittings

Stainless-steel drainage system

The EuroPipe® push-fit system for hot water drainage, vacuum or low pressure pumping is made from 316 stainless steel, and is available in 50mm, 75mm, 110mm, 160mm, 200mm and 250mm sizes. Each pipe comes with a male spigot end and a female socket end with a standard EPDM rubber ring seal fitted.

Stainless-steel pressure tube and fitting system

Mapress is a simple, press-fit pressure system made from high-quality grade AISI 316 stainless steel. With tubes and fittings constructed from stainless steel, the system is versatile and reliable in the most demanding plumbing environments. Wherever high temperatures, high pressure and the highest standards of hygiene challenge the plumbing system, the Mapress stainless-steel pressure system performs.

In industries ranging from food processing and mining to wastewater treatment, Mapress is fast becoming the stainless-steel pressure tubing system of choice. The high-pressure tube and fitting system has the following benefits:

• Fire and corrosion resistant
• Pressure tested to 40bar
• Installed in seconds without specialist skills
• Can be used to carry water, gases, fuels, oils and solvents
• Safe – no need for hot work permits and inspection delays
• Internationally quality approved
• Repairs and maintenance are easy
• No need for specialist welding skills

Because of its long life, the Mapress stainless-steel pressure system – available in Australasia only through Blucher Australia – is a valuable investment.
