The new “Westlake Pipe & Fittings” name represents the strength of the portfolio and marks the company as the second-largest pipe & fittings manufacturer in North America.

HOUSTON — Westlake Pipe & Fittings, formerly NAPCO Pipe & Fittings, is excited to announce its new name to reflect the true value its customers receive from its extensive product portfolio backed by the brand equity of Westlake Corporation (NYSE: WLK), a Fortune 500 Company.

“As Westlake Pipe & Fittings, we are refining our collaboration with customers to continually advance our pipe and fittings products and systems as well as innovate and reinvent solutions with the latest technology,” said Andre Battistin, vice president of Westlake Pipe & Fittings. “We want to lead in developing increasingly more sustainable products engineered to last while delivering the high-quality essential products customers need for their business every day.”

Westlake Pipe & Fittings offers numerous pipe and fitting innovations that transform PVC water systems, including Certa-Lok®, Certa-Lok® CLIC™, Yelomine®, Certa-Set®, and Certa-Flo®, and a new portfolio addition, molecular-oriented PVC (PVCO).

Additionally, the recent acquisition of LASCO Fittings, Inc., has allowed the company to provide a wider array of injection-molded fittings to current market segments and expand into new market segments including pool and spa, aquarium and waterpark, and golf irrigation.

With the company’s growing presence, Westlake Pipe & Fittings’ commitment to delivering high-quality products and elite engineering support is paramount. The company’s rebrand is merely the first step in a focused approach to enhancing the customer experience from start to finish.
