What sets a branded copper tube apart from standard copper tube

Copper plumbing tube to EN 1057 is a commodity – the norm specifies material, dimensions, and tolerances. Any manufacturer meeting EN 1057 can supply conforming tube. For the installer, the question is not whether a tube meets the norm, but whether it consistently performs above it: inner surface quality that resists pitting corrosion over decades, dimensional precision that reduces installation time, and straightness that minimizes bracket requirements.

SANCO was developed to answer these questions. The patented manufacturing process produces tube with inner surface properties and dimensional consistency that go beyond what EN 1057 mandates – without changing the installation process, the fitting system, or the material. For the installer, this means less rework, fewer callbacks, and a documented quality product for hygiene-critical projects.

Reliable for all areas of home installation

For many years, installers have been relying on SANCO branded copper tubes. The tubes are very reliable, suitable for all areas of domestic installation and have more than proven their worth in practice. Whether drinking water supply (hot and cold), heating systems, oil, gas and liquid gas supplies as well as thermal solar systems: Wieland SANCO tubes are always the right choice and, of course, covered by the relevant regulations.
