Raw Material Quotation Water Treatment Plant Production

The role of raw materials in determining the final cost of equipment


The production of water treatment plants requires a wide range of materials, each with specific properties that make it suitable for certain applications. From ferrous metals such as stainless steel, renowned for its resistance to corrosion, to non-ferrous metals such as Aluminium and Copper, known for their lightness and antibacterial properties, to plastic polymers and synthetic rubber, used to ensure sealing and flexibility.

The detailed analysis and choice of raw materials used in this sector is fundamental to understanding production costs, plant performance and future market trends. FT Mercati 's raw material quotation service for water treatment plant production supports these companies in constantly monitoring price fluctuations, planning purchases strategically.

Ferrous materials

  • Stainless steel: used for its corrosion resistance and durability, it is common in components such as tanks, pipes and treatment equipment.
  • Carbon steel: often used for supporting structures and tanks, it requires anti-corrosion treatments to prolong its service life.

Non-ferrous materials

  • Aluminium: light and corrosion-resistant, it is used in structural components and tanks.
  • Copper: used in piping and distribution systems due to its antibacterial properties and resistance to corrosion.
  • Plastics (PVC, PE, PP): plastics are widely used for pipes, tanks and plant components due to their light weight and chemical resistance.
