The patent- ed Molecular Ori- entation process of PVC-O makes possible to man- ufacture with less need of raw ma- terial, offering the best mechan- ic performance, but with a signifi- cant reduction of the end-product weight com- pared to other competing solu- tions: 50% reduc- tion compared to other plastics so- lutions and over 80% compared to ductile iron. Therefore PVC-O is far more efficient than other competing solutions in terms of costs, rawmaterial consumption and lighter weight, making easier manipulation and installation. than its plastic competitors, and much lower than met- al fittings. ecoFITTOM ® is defined as an eco-friendly product with the environment since it contributes to the reduction of global warming by: - The optimization of natural resources consumption. PVC is a syntheticma- terial derived from natural resources (oil and salt). 57% of PVC it is made out of chlorine, derived from common salt which is abundant on earth. Therefore PVC contributes sig- nificantly to saving oil and gas (non- renewable resourc- es) in comparison to other materials which composition depends entirely on oil.
