PVC Pipe Price-Fixing Investigation

Attorney Advertising

We are investigating potential antitrust violations in the PVC Pipe industry. If you purchased PVC municipal water pipes or electrical conduit pipes in the past four years, consider contacting us to participate in our investigation.

Illegal price-fixing may have forced contractors, builders, and other purchasers to overpay for certain PVC pipe products in recent years. If you purchased C900 PVC municipal water pipes or UL651 PVC electrical conduit pipes, you may have been impacted by inflated prices. By contacting us, you may be able to help lower prices and seek compensation for victims of the alleged price-fixing conduct.

Background

The COVID-19 pandemic brought about massive supply chain disruptions. PVC pipe manufacturers and distributors allegedly conspired to exploit the situation, keeping prices at historic levels even after supply chains recovered. Prices charged for C900 PVC municipal water pipe and UL651 PVC electrical conduit products are especially suspect. We believe these companies may have acted illegally. If you think you may have been impacted, or have information that would assist in the investigation, please contact us.
