From the resounding message of "developing sports and strengthening people's physical fitness," to the establishment of "National Fitness Day," to the goal of encouraging 300 million people to participate in winter sports... sports are becoming an unprecedented part of the daily lives of 1.4 billion Chinese people, becoming an indispensable part of health and a better life.
Following the nationwide popularity of the "Village BA" and "Suzhou Super League," the 2025 Zhejiang City Basketball League (hereinafter referred to as "Zhejiang BA") has taken the lead, ushering in a new wave of national sports enthusiasm. Twenty-two teams from across the province will compete at iconic venues such as Jiaxing University Gymnasium, Lishui Sports Center Gymnasium, Wenzhou Olympic Sports Center Gymnasium, Quzhou Vocational and Technical College Gymnasium, Huzhou Changxing Sports Center Gymnasium, Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center Gymnasium, Jiaojiang Gymnasium, and Fuyang Gymnasium, vying for championship glory.
A large-scale event of this magnitude requires stable and reliable infrastructure, particularly the invisible protection of water supply, sewage disposal, and power systems. As a provider of piping system solutions, ERA silently ensures the smooth transmission of water and electricity at every location, contributing to this grand event that reaches, participates, and enjoys the hearts of all.
01 Stable Water Supply, Nourishing Every Passion
During the event, water demand at the venues surges: athletes showering, spectators drinking water, and venue cleaning all require significant amounts of water. How can we ensure efficient and safe water supply?
ERA PPR water pipes provide a textbook answer. Made from high-quality PPR raw materials, these pipes fully comply with national drinking water hygiene standards and possess excellent corrosion resistance, creep resistance, and mechanical strength. Even during peak water demand and severe water pressure fluctuations, they maintain stable and efficient water delivery, providing a continuous "source of life" for the event.
02 Efficient Drainage, Keeping the Land Fresh
Just as the water supply system faces challenges, the venues' drainage and sewage disposal capabilities face significant challenges. A major event can generate thousands of tons of sewage and wastewater. In the event of rainfall, the combined flow of rainwater and sewage will place an even greater strain on the pipe network.
The combination of ERA PVC-U drainage pipe and PVC-U buried sewage pipe solves this problem with exceptional performance. The former is chemically and aging-resistant, ensuring long-term, stable system operation. Its lightweight, lead-free, and non-toxic material makes it less expensive than cast iron pipe and easier to install and maintain. The latter utilizes R-shaped sealing rings for reliable seepage prevention. Furthermore, the smooth interior and exterior pipe surfaces not only provide strong resistance to subsidence and minimize flow resistance, but also significantly improve drainage efficiency, ensuring smoother drainage and sewage removal.
03 Power Pipe Networks, Illuminating Every Spectacular Moment
When the game-winning shot goes in, the stadium lights flash, the big screens refresh in real time, and the live broadcast signal reaches every household. It's the ERA PVC-U power pipe that silently protects the underground cable network.
This pipe boasts excellent electrical insulation properties and high ring stiffness, capable of withstanding voltages exceeding 10 kilovolts. It effectively resists external electromagnetic interference and soil pressure, ensuring accurate and stable power transmission. Its unique insect-resistant and flame-retardant properties provide a protective shield for the power system, eliminating potential insect and ant gnawing hazards and ensuring flawless power supply for events.
From bustling business districts to community sports corners, from professional stadiums to vibrant campuses, the "Zhejiang BA," a grassroots team, is igniting a passion for sports in Zhejiang and across the nation. ERA's pipelines have also extended their reach to a wider range of scenarios: from the pipeline networks of the National Stadium and Haikou's Wuyuanhe Sports Plaza to the power supply for the Shenxiang Community Sports Center in Zhujiajiao Town, Shanghai, and even outdoor projects in the Greater Xi'an Cultural and Sports Functional Zone. ERA's systematic, high-standard pipeline solutions ensure worry-free flow, becoming a vital link connecting sports and people's well-being.
Going forward, ERA will continue to focus on technological innovation, using reliable products to support people's pursuit of a better life.
