Plastic Pipe Industry Launches 'Truth' Campaign Against Misinformation

Three major plastics pipe associations launch 'The Truth about Plastic Pipe' campaign to counter misinformation and highlight sustainability, durability, and cost benefits of plastic infrastructure systems.

This campaign matters because plastic piping systems form the backbone of modern infrastructure, affecting everything from water delivery and sewage systems to energy distribution and telecommunications. The widespread adoption of plastic pipe directly impacts public safety, environmental sustainability, and taxpayer costs through reduced maintenance needs and longer service life. As municipalities and engineers make critical infrastructure decisions worth billions of dollars, having accurate information about material performance becomes essential for building resilient, cost-effective systems that serve communities for decades. The durability of plastic pipe during natural disasters like earthquakes can mean the difference between functional and failed infrastructure when communities need it most.
