Drinking water distribution
Stainless steel protects what it should. Water quality from mains to final connections.
TAVINOX PRESS is a stainless steel press system of fittings and pipes made from stainless steel AISI 316L / 304L with DVGW and ITC certifications, offering exceptionally high corrosion resistance.
Why stainless steel for drinking water distribution
In drinking water installations, price and installation speed are not the only factors. Hygienic suitability, long-term material stability and operational reliability are equally critical. Stainless steel meets these requirements by its very nature, and the TAVINOX PRESS system is designed so that the installation is as reliable as the material itself. Tested and certified for drinking water.
Hygienic safety
Does not release heavy metal ions into the water. Unlike copper and galvanised steel, it preserves drinking water quality unchanged.
Biofilm resistance
The smooth stainless surface limits conditions for biofilm formation and contributes to long-term operational stability.
No internal corrosion
Unlike galvanised steel, it is not subject to dezincification or scale build-up. The flow cross-section remains unchanged.
Chemical resistance
316L grade resists chemical cleaning of distribution systems. Essential where hygiene regimes and Legionella prevention are applied.
Long service life
When operated within EN 806 conditions, the service life of stainless steel pipework exceeds the designed lifespan of the building.
Thermal stability
Handles both hot and cold water including circulation systems without material degradation.

“The piping through which drinking water flows should be chosen with that in mind, not based on what is cheapest at first glance.”
For drinking water distribution, stainless steel piping is not a premium option. It is the minimum that water — and the people who drink it — deserves.
