POLO-KAL - The Original
POLO-KAL NG - One pipe system – a variety of applications
POLO-KAL - probably the most well-known brand of pipe systems in plumbing - has served well in Austria since 1957 and has become synonymous with quality in above-ground drainage.
In 1991, the highly sound insulating pipe system POLO-KAL 3S with its 3-layer technology was introduced and since 1994 the New Generation of POLO-KAL has been available on the sanitary goods market: POLO-KAL NG in 3-layer technology. It has proved one of the most excellent innovations of POLOPLAST.
Meanwhile, sound insulation in above-ground drainage is no more the only field of application for POLO-KAL NG. Its most excellent product properties, the extension of the product range by parts for specific types of application, as well as additional testing have made the sound insulating pipe system POLO-KAL NG the tailor-made solution in a variety of applications.
Above-ground drainage system, (highly) sound insulating
POLO-KAL NG and POLO-KAL 3S
The high-grade above-ground drainage system POLO-KAL NG, a soundinsulating plastic pipe system made with innovative 3-layer technology, provides high quality and convincing sound insulation values. Wherever particularly high sound protection is required, POLOPLAST offers a convincing solution with POLO-KAL 3S.
Controlled housing ventilation with geothermal heat exchanger
POLO-KAL NG KWL + EWT
Thanks to its high quality and excellent properties POLO-KAL NG is the tailor-made solution even for modern ventilation systems with geothermal heat exchangers. This is how POLO-KAL NG contributes to making living even more comfortable and to increased energy efficiency.
Centralised vacuum cleaning system
POLO-KAL NG ZSA
POLO-KAL NG product highlights, such as its innovative 3-layer structure, the smooth inner surface and perfectly fitting sleeves, provide noiseless and efficient suction performance in the "centralised vacuum cleaning system".
Exhaust gas system
POLO-KAL NG AGT
Thanks to its resistance to chemicals and temperature POLO-KAL NG is the winning number in chimney pipes for oil- or gas-operated condensing-value boilers of the "exhaust gas system“ range.
Siphonic roof drainage
POLO-KAL NG UDS
In "Siphonic roof drainage" the pipe system of POLO-KAL NG, together with POLO-ASV, the extraction-proof connection, combine with perfectly matching one another, high-grade system components of renowned manufacturers to provide fast, reliable and economical drainage of large roof surfaces.
Current references for POLO-KAL NG
In 2011, POLO-KAL was used in the "Musiktheater Linz (Musical Theatre Linz)", Upper Austria.
High quality and safety were of topmost priority in this construction. The waste water drainage of all sanitary facilities and the downpipes were made of POLOPLAST's (highly) sound insulating pipe systems POLO-KAL NG and POLO-KAL 3S. A total length of approximately 1,000 m of POLO-KAL NG and POLO-KAL 3S were laid.
The application range of siphonic roof drainage now comprises huge roof surfaces of chain food shops, building supplies' shops, industrial workshops and buildings that were equipped with POLO-UDS, POLOPLAST's siphonic roof drainage system.
Current examples for the application of POLOPLAST's siphonic roof drainage system are the 15,000 m² roof surface of the Trox GmbH company, Germany, and the building project of the Essen Fair, Germany, with its 27,000 m² roof.

The major advantage of POLO-UDS is that the components need not be welded. The push-fit system, the precise shape of the components, the factory-fitted lip seal ring of POLO-KAL NG and the extraction-proof connection POLO-ASV make assembly quick and accurate. The push-fit system helped to rule out any waiting time for welds, as well as the dependence on worksite energy supply.
For Controlled housing ventilation POLO-KAL NG is mainly used in passive houses.
The envelopes of energy-efficient buildings become more and more impermeable so that controlled housing ventilation systems combined with geothermal heat exchangers can no longer be dispensed with. Such systems result in the highest residential standards as they provide permanent fresh air supply without any losses on airing.

Many modern buildings, above all low-energy and passive houses, have been equipped with controlled housing ventilation systems and geothermal heat exchangers using POLO-KAL NG.
