Molecor: Innovation and technology for a more sustainable water infrastructure
Water management has become a global challenge, and with World Water Day approaching on 22 March 2026, it serves as an annual reminder of the importance of thinking about the role that infrastructure plays in protecting this essential resource.
In this context, Molecor, a Spanish company with 20 years of experience and a presence in over 30 countries, has established itself as an international benchmark in water supply, contributing to the modernisation of networks and the development of more efficient, safer and sustainable infrastructure.
Molecular orientation, the PVC revolution
Its technological leadership is based on molecular orientation technology, used to manufacture the world’s widest range of PVC-O pipes, from DN90 to DN1200 mm, TOM® pipes. The manufacturing process is continuous and fully automated, which ensures the maximum product reliability and a quality control pipe to pipe for 100 per cent of the production.
TOM® is manufactured in Class 500, the highest level recognised by ISO 16422, which guarantees superior mechanical properties: greater resistance to internal pressure, high ductility and exceptional performance in the event of impact and deformation.
In addition, Molecor launched the first PVC-O fittings on the market, ecoFITTOM®, available from DN110 to DN500 mm, which allow for more continuous systems and perfect compatibility with PVC systems for infrastructure.
These fittings optimise the use of raw material and use less energy during their manufacture, obtaining a product with higher hydrostatic resistance and higher resistance to impact than fittings of other materials.
The best choice for transporting pressurised water
These Molecor solutions provide key benefits for hydraulic infrastructures: large hydraulic capacity, high impact resistance, excellent hydrostatic resistance, great ductility, high resistance to water hammer and total watertightness.
Another key aspect is its exclusive genuine air system, which replaces the use of boiling water with air throughout the entire orientation process, optimising energy efficiency and reducing environmental impact. Among other features, this technological development allows Molecor’s PVC-O solutions to stand out for their excellent performance against corrosion and chemical agents, guaranteeing the highest quality of the water transported.
TOM® and ecoFITTOM® are 100 per cent recyclable and contribute directly to more efficient, resilient and environmentally friendly infrastructure, aligning with global objectives for responsible water management and current sustainability demands in the sector.
