    Pre-insulated Henco Pipes: Maximum Efficiency, Minimal Energy Loss

    Efficient heating and cooling start with the right piping

    Anyone looking for an energy-efficient, durable, and quick-to-install piping solution will find a reliable partner in Henco pre-insulated multilayer pipes. These pipes combine the superior quality of Henco multilayer pipes with a high-performance insulation layer that drastically reduces heat loss. The result? An installation that operates more efficiently, consumes less energy, and is built for the future.

    Thermal insulation for maximum efficiency

    The pre-insulated Henco pipe is wrapped in durable expanded PE foam. Thanks to its closed-cell structure, the insulation retains its thermal performance even under demanding conditions. The robust PE outer jacket with a mesh finish protects the system against mechanical impacts and moisture, ensuring a long service life. This prevents cracks and damage during installation, unlike smooth insulation jackets.

    Since the insulation is fully pre-assembled, installers save significant time on-site and reduce the risk of installation errors. This makes the solution ideal for fast installation in energy-efficient buildings, renovations, and modern new-build projects.

    In addition, pre-insulated pipes have been produced by Henco in Herentals since 2024—an important step in local production that saves approximately 750 tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually.

    Flexibility for every installation

    Henco pre-insulated pipes are available in various diameters and insulation classes, allowing each application to be perfectly tailored to the desired performance. They provide an excellent solution for:

    • Heating systems

    • Domestic hot water

    • Cooling installations

    • Transport of cold fluids in cooling units

    Thanks to the efficient insulation layer, hot water remains hot for longer and cold water stays reliably cool. This not only reduces energy loss but also limits the risk of temperature rise—essential in preventing legionella formation.

    Why installers choose Henco pre-insulated pipes

    • Superior insulation

      • Minimal heat loss, maximum energy efficiency, and a direct impact on lower energy costs.

    • Protection against corrosion and damage

      • Durable inner and outer layers protect the piping system from external influences.

    • Fast and efficient installation

      • Lightweight, flexible, and fully pre-assembled—ideal for smooth installation.

    • Environmentally friendly

      • Made from recyclable materials and locally produced. Sustainable construction starts with smart material choices.

    Calculate heat loss on MyHenco

    MyHenco offers a practical heat loss calculation tool that allows installers and construction partners to instantly assess whether an installation is sufficiently energy-efficient. By entering a few parameters and clicking “Calculate,” the heat loss is immediately displayed according to ISO 12241:1998.

    The tool takes into account, among other factors:

    • Horizontal and vertical pipes

    • High emissivity of the outer insulation layer (0.90)

    • Standard temperatures and installation conditions

    If the heat loss is too high, you can easily run a new simulation with adjusted values.
