Since May 2025, two major housing policies have taken effect, targeting China’s long-standing "old and rundown" urban neighborhoods. The National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development jointly released the Implementation Plan for 《Accelerating Urban Old Community Renovation and Improving Long-Term Mechanisms》 and the 《Action Plan for Urban Dilapidated Housing Renewal (2025-2030)》, marking a full-scale upgrade initiative.
Government data shows this round of renovations will cover 219,000 old residential areas nationwide, benefiting 430 million households and 160 million residents. The central government has allocated 380 billion yuan (2025-2027) in special funds, with local governments and private investments further boosting the effort.
Water supply system upgrades are a key focus, with thousands of communities now accelerating renovations. As "last-mile" drinking water safety becomes a top public concern, stainless steel pipes are emerging as the preferred choice—thanks to their eco-friendly durability and health benefits.
Policy Support + Public Demand = A Billion-Dollar Market Shift
Solving chronic issues: Rust, leaks, and secondary water contamination
Quality upgrade: From "having water" to "having clean water," aligning with China’s Healthy Nation strategy
Economic boost: A trillion-yuan market opportunity, revitalizing the construction materials industry
| Problem | Traditional pipes (galvanized pipes/ordinary plastic pipes) | Risks associated with renovation |
| Low health | Corrosion, scaling, and heavy metal precipitation on the inner wall | Yellow and odorous water quality poses a threat to residents' health |
| Short lifespan (≤ 20 years) | Frequent aging and bursting of pipes → repeated excavation and maintenance | Resident complaints surge, property costs skyrocket |
| Weak pressure bearing capacity | Water hammer prone to breakdown → flooded elevators, wall leakage | Causing safety accidents and neighborhood disputes |
| High overall cost | 15-20 years to replace>Double the cost of secondary renovation | Both fiscal funds and resident satisfaction suffer losses |
*Conclusion: Transformation is not a simple replacement, but a long-term solution to cure chronic diseases!
1. Stainless steel water pipes have a long service life, corrosion resistance, high temperature and high pressure resistance, and a theoretical service life of more than 70 years (equivalent to the service life of buildings);
2. Zero maintenance costs, eliminating the chaos of "digging every year and repairing every month", saving millions of maintenance funds for the government/property management, one-time renovation, lifelong worry free;
3. The inner wall of the water pipe is smooth and does not scale, which inhibits the growth of microorganisms such as Legionella and improves biological safety;
4. Construction friendly, German dual card compression technology, no open flames on the construction site, saving time and effort;
5. Both visible and hidden pipes are suitable to adapt to narrow spaces in old residential areas and reduce the disturbance caused by breaking walls and digging ground;

From rusty galvanized pipes to stainless steel pipes that have the same lifespan as buildings, what has changed is not only the "face" of water supply facilities, but also the "inside" of livelihood projects. The renovation of old residential areas is connected to both the well-being of the people and the future of the city.
Stainless steel water pipes provide a solution to the "last mile" drinking water safety problem with the disruptive advantage of "one-time renovation, lifelong benefit". This pipeline revolution not only provides 160 million residents with "safe water", but also drives the building materials industry to transform towards green and low-carbon, injecting strong momentum into stable growth and promoting employment.
