If you are planning a home build, renovation, or any plumbing project in Nepal, chances are you have already come across UPVC pipes. They are widely used across the country, in housing colonies in Lalitpur, commercial buildings in Pokhara, drainage systems in Butwal, and borewell setups across the Terai. But when it comes to understanding the UPVC pipe price in Nepal, what you actually get for that price, and which UPVC type is right for your specific project, most buyers are left guessing.
This guide fixes that. Whether you are a contractor pricing a job, a homeowner comparing options, or an engineer sourcing materials for a large project, here is everything you need to know about Kishan UPVC pipes in Nepal, from product types and their ideal uses to what to look for before you buy.
UPVC stands for Unplasticised Polyvinyl Chloride. Unlike ordinary plastic pipes, UPVC contains no plasticisers, which means it is harder, more rigid, and significantly more durable under pressure. It does not rust, corrode, or react with water or soil chemicals, and requires almost no maintenance over its service life.
For Nepal’s diverse conditions, from the humid Terai plains to hilly districts with varying temperatures,UPVC pipes offer a level of reliability that older metal pipes simply cannot match. They are lighter to transport, easier to install, and hold up far longer under real-world operating conditions.
The key advantage of UPVC over standard PVC is rigidity and pressure tolerance. UPVC is engineered for pressurised water supply, drainage, borewell applications, and underground distribution networks, exactly the conditions most Nepali construction projects demand.
Kishan manufactures five distinct types of UPVC pipes, each engineered for a specific application. Understanding the difference helps you choose the right product and avoid overspending or under-specifying.
This is Kishan’s flagship UPVC pipe, NS-certified, meaning every batch is tested and approved against Nepal Standard NS:206 for pressure durability, wall thickness, and material quality.
Available sizes: 50mm (1½”), 75mm (2½”), 90mm (3″), 110mm (4″), 160mm (6″), 200mm (8″)
Available pressure ratings: 2.5 kgf/cm², 4 kgf/cm², 6 kgf/cm², 10 kgf/cm² (not all sizes available at all pressure classes; contact Kishan for specific availability)
Best for:
The NS:206 certification is your assurance that the pipe has been independently tested to meet Nepal’s national quality standards. It is slightly more premium-priced than other UPVC variants, but it is the right choice when your project demands certified performance and long-term reliability. If you are building a home, a school, a hospital, or any structure where water supply quality and pipe durability cannot be compromised, this is the pipe to specify.

Kishan’s borewell-grade UPVC pipes are manufactured and certified to BS:3505, the British Standard for unplasticised PVC pipes used in borewell and underground water extraction applications.
Available sizes: 48mm (1½”), 60mm (2″), 90mm (3″), 114mm (4″), 168mm (6″)
Available classes: BSC, BSD, BSE (higher class = thicker wall = greater depth and pressure tolerance)
Best for:
If your project involves a borewell in the Kathmandu Valley, the Terai plains, or anywhere groundwater is the primary source, the BS:3505-certified pipe is the standard requirement. The three class options (BSC, BSD, BSE) let you match wall thickness and cost precisely to your borewell depth and pressure needs.
Kishan’s UPVC Gold Pipe is specifically designed for projects where cost efficiency is a priority without completely compromising on UPVC performance.
Available sizes: 50mm (1½”), 75mm (2½”), 110mm (4″)
Available pressure ratings: 4 kgf/cm², 6 kgf/cm²
Best for:
Why choose UPVC Gold Pipe?
The Gold Pipe is Kishan’s most affordable UPVC option, making it the go-to choice for buyers who need UPVC performance at a lower price point. It is ideal for contractors managing tight project budgets or homeowners looking for a reliable but economical pipe for secondary plumbing lines. If the NS:206 certified pipe is the premium choice, the Gold Pipe is the practical everyday alternative.
The Solfit Borewell Pipe is Kishan’s lighter-duty borewell pipe option, available in Class A, Class B, and Class C variants for the 110mm (4″) size.
Available size: 110mm (4″)
Available classes: Class-A, Class-B, Class-C
Best for:
Why choose this pipe? The Solfit Borewell Pipe fills the gap between the heavy-duty BS:3505-certified range and standard plumbing pipes. If your borewell project does not require the full structural specification of BS:3505, the Solfit is a practical middle-ground choice.
The Flow Glass Mate is Kishan’s transparent UPVC pipe ,a unique product that allows you to visually monitor water flow, check for blockages, and inspect pipe condition without cutting into the line.
Available sizes: 75mm (2½”), 110mm (4″)
Available pressure rating: 4 kgf/cm²

Why choose a UPVC Flow Glass Mate Pipe?
No other standard pipe type lets you see what is happening inside. The Flow Glass Mate is a specialist product, perfect for situations where transparency is a functional requirement, not just an aesthetic preference.
A piping system is only as strong as its fittings. Kishan manufactures a complete range of UPVC SWR fittings designed to match its pipe range precisely. Available fittings include:
UPVC Solvent Cement required for joining pipes and fittings: Available in 250ml, 500ml, and 1,000ml quantities.
Understanding why prices vary helps you budget accurately and avoid costly mistakes. Four factors drive UPVC pipe pricing in Nepal:
NS:206-certified pipes have been independently tested to Nepal’s national quality standard, which is reflected in their price. BS:3505-certified borewell pipes carry a different structural specification. The Gold Pipe is engineered for affordability. Each type serves a different need and carries a different price point for good reason.
Larger diameter means more raw material per metre, and the price scales accordingly. A 50mm pipe and a 200mm pipe serve completely different load and flow requirements and are priced to reflect that difference.
Higher pressure tolerance requires thicker pipe walls. A 10 kgf/cm² pipe costs significantly more than a 2.5 kgf/cm² version of the same diameter. Choosing a higher pressure rating than your project actually needs wastes money. Choosing a pipe with too low a risk of pipe failure.
Borewell pipes come in classes (BSC, BSD, BSE or Class-A, B, C) that determine wall thickness and depth suitability. Higher class = greater cost = deeper, higher-pressure installation capability. Always match the class to your borewell depth.
UPVC is the most widely used pipe type for cold water applications across Nepal. Here is where Kishan UPVC pipes are most commonly installed:
UPVC is the standard choice for cold-water distribution lines, bathroom and kitchen supply lines, and toilet drainage in Nepali homes. It handles municipal water pressure reliably and does not leach chemicals into drinking water.
The smooth interior surface of UPVC prevents waste build-up, scaling, and blockage, making it ideal for SWR (Soil, Waste, and Rain) drainage lines in multi-storey buildings.
Hotels, schools, hospitals, and office blocks across Nepal rely on UPVC plumbing for its long service life and minimal maintenance demands.
Kishan’s borewell-grade UPVC pipes (BS:3505) are specifically engineered to handle underground pressure and soil conditions across Nepal’s varying terrain.
For underground distribution networks in both urban and rural water supply projects, UPVC offers the right balance of strength, chemical resistance, and cost efficiency.
Buyers in Nepal frequently confuse UPVC, standard PVC, and CPVC. Here is a plain-language comparison:

Kishan pipe produces five types of UPVC pipes: NS:206 certified pipes for standard plumbing, BS:3505 certified borewell pipes, UPVC Gold Pipe for budget projects, Solfit Borewell Pipe for medium-depth borewell use, and Flow Glass Mate, a transparent UPVC pipe for applications where visual flow monitoring is needed.
UPVC (Unplasticised PVC) contains no plasticisers, making it rigid, stronger, and better suited for pressurised water supply and drainage systems. Standard PVC is more flexible but less suitable for high-pressure or structural plumbing applications.
The UPVC Gold Pipe is Kishan’s most budget-friendly UPVC option. It is ideal for cost-conscious projects where a lower price point is needed without completely sacrificing UPVC performance.
NS:206 is the Nepal Standard for UPVC pipes. It means the pipe has been independently tested and approved for wall thickness, pressure tolerance, and material quality. It is the benchmark of quality assurance for UPVC pipes used in Nepali plumbing and water supply projects. NS:206-certified pipes are slightly more premium but offer the highest level of reliability assurance.
UPVC pipes are safe for a potable water supply. They do not corrode or leach harmful chemicals, and their smooth inner surface prevents bacterial growth, ensuring safe water delivery.
Yes. UPVC pipes, especially the borewell-grade BS:3505-certified range, are designed for underground use. They resist soil chemicals, moisture, and ground pressure, making them reliable for buried water distribution and borewell setups.
The Flow Glass Mate is Kishan’s transparent UPVC pipe. Unlike standard opaque pipes, it allows you to visually monitor water flow and inspect the pipe from the outside. It is available in 75mm and 110mm sizes at a 4 kgf/cm² pressure rating.
