  2. On the arrival in storage are the goods must be inspected and, if there is any damage (degradation of the internal or external coating), it must be repaired before going in stock.

  3. The pipes must be stocked in the respective stakes, according to diameter in accordance with a logical stock plan. The same is applied for fittings and accessories.

  4. It is always desirable to keep time stock to a minimum, if only to protect coating form the effects of weathering and prolonged exposure to the sun.

  5. Use appropriately shaped hooks covered with special protection of plastic material or rubber, which will not cause any damage to the internal coating of the pipes. (See fig.1)
