Most pipe brands hold their dealer events in a hotel ballroom off a highway. Hitze took its plumbers to the mountains.
On September 23, 2026, our partner in India hosted the Hitze Plumbers’ Meet at a mountain convention centre, set among pine-covered peaks. The plan was simple: one day of serious PPR training, one night of celebration, and one message for every plumber who came through the gate.
Welcome to the Hitze Family.
Day: a conference hall with no empty seats
The meet opened inside the convention centre’s main conference hall, and the room filled up fast. Plumbers lined both sides of the long table from end to end, with more standing at the back.
At the head of the table sat the tools of the trade: a Hitze PPR fusion welding kit, pipe samples and fittings, laid out so every installer could see exactly what he would be working with on site.
This was not a slideshow. It was a working session built around the questions plumbers face every day:
| Session | What it covered | Why it matters on site |
|---|---|---|
| The Hitze PPR system | Pipes, fittings and how the system fits together | One brand end to end means no mismatched joints |
| Heat-fusion jointing | Setting up the welding kit, heating, joining and cooling | A good fusion joint becomes one piece with the pipe; a bad one is the leak you get called back for |
| Choosing the right pipe | Matching pipe class to hot or cold water lines | The right pressure class for hot water keeps the system running for years |
| Q&A from the floor | Real problems from real jobs | Plumbers learn fastest from each other |

Night: the Hitze Family comes together
When the sun went down behind the mountains, the meet moved outside. The giant Hitze banner went up on the front of the lodge, the floodlights came on, and the lawn filled with plumbers.
A live band set up right under the banner: keyboard, drums, microphone and a full sound system. Songs rolled out over the valley while plumbers pulled up benches, phones in hand, filming every moment.
Between songs, the Hitze team kept the conversation going. Tables in the middle of the circle were loaded with Hitze PPR fittings and products, so plumbers could pick them up, turn them over and ask anything they wanted.
Nobody went home empty-handed
Stacked by the stage: boxes full of yellow Hitze gift bags, one for every plumber who came. Each one went home and out onto job sites across the region, carrying the Hitze name with it.
Why Hitze builds its network plumber by plumber
Across India, the plumber decides what goes into the wall. Homeowners ask him which pipe to buy. Builders trust him to get it right. When a plumber knows a brand, has held its fittings and has made its joints with his own hands, he keeps choosing it, job after job.
That is why Hitze does not stop at shipping pipe. We invest in the people who install it. A day in the mountains turns plumbers into Hitze specialists, and the specialists into the Hitze Family.
Next: your market
