Plumbing
Professional plumbing, friendly service.
Fortaleza supplies a comprehensive range of plumbing products that caters for the needs of the largest contractor and the general homeowner alike. Products are supplied for individual and mass housing, alterations and additions, renovations of any magnitude, hospitals and clinics, schools, and maintenance for industry and government.
Our plumbing section carries a good selection of copper tube, capillary and compression fittings, cobra valves, taps and brass fittings, bibtaps, wastes, traps, gate valves, CP taps, bath and shower mixers, basin mixers, and galvanised and PVC pipe fittings.
IPS products
IPS threaded pipes and fittings are manufactured from high molecular weight polypropylene homopolymer (PPH) and offer great resistance to high pressures and temperatures. Thanks to high levels of elastic modulus, the threads have the rigidity needed to hold their shape when exposed to a range of mechanical stresses.








PPR products
PPR clean water pipe and its additional parts are made of polypropylene random copolymer raw material with a low melt flow index and high flexibility. The raw materials are obtained by polymerisation of propylene monomers, which come from the distillation of oil under controlled temperature and pressure.
The most important feature that distinguishes PPR from the others is that it can be used in hot water installations as well as general plumbing. It entered the market as a substitute for galvanised pipe and became a leading product thanks to the advantages it offered.















PVC products
A full run of PVC waste and drainage fittings, from junctions, bends and elbows to unions, tees, sockets and pipe in every common diameter.










HDPE products
Compression fittings, couplers, elbows, tees, adaptors and coiled HDPE pipe for water mains, irrigation and pressure applications.
