PVC Pipe Promoted in Chicago

By | June 2016

The PVC Pipe Association, with support from The Vinyl Institute, created a campaign to promote PVC pipe during the American Water Works Association’s (AWWA) Annual Conference and Exposition (ACE).

Chicago deserves clean, affordable water.

To promote the importance of PVC pipe, AWWA ACE shuttle buses were vinyl-wrapped with ads that read “Chicago Deserves Clean, Affordable Water.” The buses then circulated around Chicago directing ratepayers to a website with more information. The Choose PVC Pipe site features PVC pipe facts, resourceful infographics, and news clips of other PVC pipe promotions in the Chicago area.

The campaign reached over 1,600 people.

The message is simple.

Clean, affordable water shouldn’t be a luxury in Chicago or any other city. It’s within our nation’s reach, as local officials across the country increasingly choose durable, lead-free PVC pipe to replace corrosion-prone iron piping infrastructure.
