Ready to Ship Charlotte Pipe–American made since 1901 Founder W. Frank Dowd recognized the need for plumbing pipe in the newly industrialized, post-war South, and built a small foundry in Charlotte, NC, to produce cast iron soil pipe and fi ttings. And that was just the beginning—it didn't stop there. Moving into plastics in the 1960s, Schedule 80 pipe in the 1990s, CPVC pipe in 2009, and recycled content PVC DWV pipe in 2010, Charlotte Pipe is now the largest manufacturer of DWV pipe and fi ttings in the United States and operates one of the largest fi ttings molding facilities in the world. Now, Northeastern Supply has moved to Charlotte Pipe as its primary pipe vendor. According to Joe Pierce, NE's Commercial Sales Manager, "Charlotte Pipe is made in the USA, has universal acceptance, and great product support in the fi eld." He added, "It was abundantly clear that if we were going to move forward with a Commercial Plumbing division in a serious way, we had to transition away from imported cast iron pipe and fi ttings back to domestic. When weighing the pros of Charlotte, with their deep history in this segment, the decision was easy." NE's target customers for Charlotte's pipe line are mechanical contractors and municipalities that are building or repairing water drainage systems. Although most residential drainage systems have transitioned to PVC, cast iron is still the go-to material for schools, hospitals, high- rises, and institutional buildings. And NE has gone with Charlotte Pipe in a big way. Pierce said, "We are stocking their entire line up to 15". Charlotte has the best value proposition, because their foundry capabilities are second to none. They innovated a well-established category by electromagnetically cleaning and coating all fi ttings and lengths of pipe up to 5', extending the life of the DWV system and are much cleaner for the installer." Pierce added, "We and Charlotte work together to address our customers' needs, and the full product line on the ground is ready to ship."
