Making a Material Difference with Wavin
The building materials industry is often overlooked for a careers choice. Here at Wavin, we are proud to be a part of an industry that has a positive impact on the world not just with our physical materials, but also the people. Whether that be our employees or our customers. This industry needs to be shouted about more and the Builders Mechant Federation’s campaign ‘Materially Different’ is doing just that.
Who are Wavin?
Wavin UK is a member of the Orbia Group – the world leader in plastic pipe systems for residential, non-residential, and civil engineering projects. Systems offered, include market leading Osma above and below ground drainage, Hep2O hot and cold plumbing and underfloor heating, Hepworth Clay drainage and Hepworth Terracotta heating, ventilation, and roofing products, as well as a wide range of Wavin drainage and stormwater management solutions for all application areas.
The foundations for the company and products our customers experience today were laid down in the 1980s and 1990s when the first generation of fast fire roller kiln technology was introduced. In 2005 Hepworth was acquired by Wavin. An alliance that underpins our commitment to supplying clay drainage systems and terracotta products of the highest calibre, the lowest possible carbon footprint and with absolute standards compliance. Our Purpose and Sustainability journey is well and truly underway at Wavin UK.
