I searched the Internet the other day to write something that may have an impact on my business of conversion of PVC pipe in imitation of bamboo and have found something very interesting.

One of the PVC pipe manufacturer conducted an interesting test, as part of their service and commitment to their customers. Apparently they do, these and other manufacturers, are always with one or another test to evaluate and measure their PVC, both of their specifications and the need forchange. The needs and requirements change over time, they are done by first examining the variable demands of consumers.

One of these tests relates to sunlight. Long-term exposure to UV radiation generally degraded anything and everything. It is nature's way of life, recovery, perhaps we should "natural recycling" and go, of course, our Imitation Bamboo needs to be recycled in the foreseeable future.

Not too long ago, a 2-year test was conducted to determine the effects of sunlight on a PVC pipe thatwe as the basis for our Imitation Bamboo. Harmful UV rays and their effect has been quantified and recorded.

PVC pipes were stacked on racks outside, fully exposed to the sun and turned at regular intervals, so that the whole tube was open to the elements. They reclaimed a few tubes every so often and checked their integrity, strength, and whatever else deemed necessary.

At first glance, I thought that was what they found surprising. It seemed not done any real damage. The tubes canstill carry their load - supply fluids - usually under pressure. After 2 years there was no degradation, no loss of physical properties and no visible ruins.

The PVC pipe was still able to withstand the pressure it was designed to bear. In effect, means that no leaks. Furthermore, the sun do not eat too much of the surface. The next test showed more than 15 years that the UV rays scoured only 0.002 inch from the surface. I thought it was fantastic, very low corrosion, if you ask meexactly what I wanted to hear.

Of course, when the time comes to recycling our Imitation Bamboo is a very important step to save our planet. Plastic Recyclers will convert hopefully be able to reuse and remake or maybe these pipes for irrigation in pipes. Nothing was going to lose.

How does this work affect our Bamfaux (Imitation Bamboo)? Now, to the image that we are on the surface of the pipe, paint to mimic bamboo, naturally mined or insipid first. Because weAlso, the PVC scratch ensure further penetration of our colors, they will make a fraction of Synthetic Bamboo more protection, or resistance.

Plus, some colors are better suited to the nature than others. The colors we use are specially mixed, more resistant to UV rays than, say, the color that you use on the outside of your home. I have not confirm a time factor to this fact, but I'll tell you that. The colors we use have lasted 10 years and more in other applications,being so conservative, we tell our Bamfaux should last a period of 5 years and longer. Our imitation of bamboo in many areas, sun, shade, indoors and out was, I see our Bamfaux in different places and they look good.

I can not guarantee that, of course. You know as well as I do that in some areas the sun harder than others. In drier areas, such as desert and semi-desert, the sun is closer to the earth, stronger. It strips away all the moisturizing properties of colorand PVC combination (until our Synthetic Bamboo) makes might have, while other areas, colder climates, who see less sun and therefore have less sunny days, this combination will last many, many times more even outside in direct sunlight.

I know that the true, real, live, bamboo does not last as long as our Imitation Bamboo that are not in direct sunlight, not in the moisture and definitely not outside where it is subject to both rain and shine, and the hard endsWeather, especially the ultraviolet rays of sunlight.
