Municipal buildings such as schools, kindergartens, fire stations or administrative facilities must operate reliably for decades. At the same time, requirements for hygiene, sustainability, legal certainty and economic efficiency continue to increase. This makes it all the more important to rely on tested, future-proof solutions already when planning technical infrastructure.

Piping systems play a key role in this context, even though they often remain in the background during the construction process. They have a decisive impact on operational safety, service life and the smooth approval of a project.

SANHA® holds more than 250 international certifications covering over 100 applications, ranging from drinking water and heating systems to fire protection and sprinkler systems (including VdS certification).

In the drinking water sector, SANHA® has consistently relied on lead-free silicon bronze fittings (CuSi, CW724R) since 2009. This means installations are already prepared today for upcoming legal requirements, such as the ECHA regulation taking effect at the end of 2028.

For municipalities, this means:

• standards-compliant installations
• reliable approvals
• long-term hygienic drinking water systems

With its own pipe mill in Germany and additional production sites across Europe, SANHA® deliberately focuses on “Made in Europe”. This ensures stable supply chains, short transport routes and reliable availability – a decisive advantage for municipal projects with fixed schedules and budget constraints.

SANHA® provides up-to-date Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for all systems. These facilitate access to funding programs, support municipal climate targets and ensure transparency for auditing and tendering authorities.

In-house quality laboratories continuously test materials, seals and systems. This guarantees a high level of operational safety over decades and minimizes refurbishment efforts during ongoing operation.

Conclusion

Anyone building today for 2030 and beyond should not compromise when it comes to technical infrastructure. With certified systems, European manufacturing, up-to-date EPDs and in-house quality assurance, SANHA® offers municipalities a reliable foundation for sustainable and legally compliant construction.
