Wholesale PEX, Multilayer & Heating Pipe — FOB Export, Container-Optimized
German-engineered PEX, PEX-AL-PEX multilayer and PE-RT underfloor-heating pipe, supplied FOB to distributors and importers across North America and Europe. Tiered pricing you can model, containers loaded to fill, and a customs cert package that clears the first time.
Hitze is a German brand of premium heating and potable-water piping systems, built for wholesale volume rather than one-off orders. We quote FOB so you can calculate landed cost before you commit, load every 40HQ to maximize meters shipped, and hand you a complete documentation set — cUPC / NSF, WRAS, CE DoP and Certificate of Origin support — so your goods aren’t held at the port.
Trade & wholesale only — Hitze does not sell single units at retail.

The core SKUs distributors reorder most, held in stock for fast container turnaround.
Our wholesale range covers the pipe families that move volume: 5-layer PEX-AL-PEX / PERT-AL-PERT multilayer (oxygen-tight aluminium core, low thermal expansion), PEX-a/b/c for potable and hydronic, and PE-RT underfloor-heating pipe with an EVOH oxygen barrier per DIN 4726. Fittings and manifolds are available to complete the system order.

Container Loading
How Many Meters Fit a 40HQ? We Load for Fill Rate, Not Guesswork
Every empty corner of a container is freight you pay for and don’t sell. We plan loading to move maximum meters per box.
Loadable meters per 40HQ depend on diameter, coil versus bar packing, and layer construction. We publish tested loading figures per SKU so you can spread ocean freight across the most product possible and hit your target landed cost per meter. Mixed-SKU loads are planned to reach a high fill rate rather than shipping air.
| Metric | Detail |
|---|---|
| Container type | 40HQ (high cube) |
| Meters per 40HQ | Tested loading figures by SKU — available on request |
| Fill-rate target | Target fill rate available on request |
| Packing | Coils / bars, mixed-SKU planning |
| Freight basis | FOB (loading port available on request) |

Customs Documentation
A Cert Package That Clears Customs — cUPC / WRAS / CE DoP + Certificate of Origin
Missing paperwork is the fastest way to strand a container. Our export documentation is assembled to move through customs the first time.
Hitze products are supported to the certification standards required in each market — cUPC / UPC (IAPMO) and NSF/ANSI 61 for North American potable safety, WRAS for the UK, and CE with a Declaration of Performance (DoP) for the EU, alongside PEX and multilayer standards (ASTM F876/F877, EN ISO 15875, EN ISO 21003) and DIN 4726 oxygen-barrier compliance for UFH. Every shipment ships with the export document set your broker needs.
| Export document (typical) | Market / purpose |
|---|---|
| cUPC / UPC listing reference (IAPMO) | North America — listing numbers available on request |
| NSF/ANSI 61 potable safety | North America — certificate numbers available on request |
| WRAS approval | UK potable — certificate numbers available on request |
| CE + Declaration of Performance (DoP) | EU — DoP references available on request |
| Certificate of Origin | Customs proof of origin |
| Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading | Standard shipping set |
Certificate numbers and the full listing set are confirmed with your quote and are available on request. Full listing numbers: coming soon on this page.
The Source Behind the Supply
A German Brand That Can Actually Export at Volume
Behind the FOB quote and the container plan is a production base built for wholesale output — not a trading desk reselling other people’s pipe.
Hitze is a German brand, founded in 1974, engineering PEX, multilayer PEX-AL-PEX and PE-RT pipe to German DIN and EN ISO standards on a 120,000 m² production base with 1,000+ employees, exporting to 118+ countries. That scale is what lets us hold core SKUs in stock, load full containers on schedule and keep reorders on spec — the operational depth distributors and importers need from a supplier, not just a catalog.
Reorder Consistency
Reorders That Match — Batch-to-Batch Tolerance You Can Stock On
When OD, wall or press profile drifts between batches, your counter staff eat the complaints. We control tolerance so reorders drop in.
Every batch is held to the dimensional tolerances of the governing standard (ASTM F877 / EN ISO 15875 for PEX, ASTM F1281 / EN ISO 21003 for multilayer), so outside diameter, wall thickness and press-fitting profile stay consistent order after order. Press fittings are matched to standard TH / U / F / M jaw profiles in 16–32 mm, so the tools your installers already own keep working across reorders — no surprise incompatibility at the counter.
| Consistency point | Basis |
|---|---|
| OD / wall tolerance | ASTM F877 / EN ISO 15875; ASTM F1281 / EN ISO 21003 |
| Press profile compatibility | TH / U / F / M, 16–32 mm |
| Internal tolerance band | Internal tolerance band & release criteria available on request |
| Batch traceability | Batch traceability & release process available on request |
Territory & Partnership
Exclusive Territory — Build the Market Without Getting Undercut
Invest in demand for a premium German brand, and don’t watch a parallel importer undercut you in your own region.
Qualifying distributors and private-label partners can negotiate exclusive territory, so the marketing, listing and installer relationships you build aren’t diluted by grey-market or parallel supply next door. Exclusivity is tied to committed annual volume and market-development terms — the details are set during onboarding.
| Term | Detail |
|---|---|
| Eligibility | Qualifying distributors / private-label partners |
| Basis | Committed annual volume + market-development terms |
| Threshold | Territory threshold & annual-purchase conditions available on request |
| Also available | Private-label / OEM program — MOQ and terms available on request |
Trade-only note: This page and its pricing are for the trade — wholesalers, distributors, importers and private-label partners. Not a retail storefront; no consumer single-unit sales.
