About Us
European Piping & Climate Control Innovation brought to New Zealand
Since 2013, KE KELIT NZ has brought European design, innovation, and quality to New Zealand, earning a strong reputation for excellence.
Founded in 1945 by Karl Egger, KE KELIT has grown from a small Austrian installation company into a global leader in durable plastic and metallic piping solutions, with operations in over 30 countries.
KE KELIT NZ is a proud supplier of innovative piping and climate control solutions, providing industry-leading Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning solutions.
With expert support nationwide and backing from KE KELIT Austria and global partners - including Viessmann, Vogel & Noot, Flamco, Meibes, Simplex and Nexus Valve - we continue to deliver high-quality solutions to New Zealand’s asset owners, consultants, and installers.
Minimising Risk, Maximising Savings, Ensuring Longevity
At KE KELIT, our solutions are designed with three key priorities in mind—minimising risk, maximising cost efficiency, and ensuring long-term value. As a testament to our commitment to quality and compliance, we became the first pipe supplier in New Zealand to achieve CodeMark certification for pipe systems in 2016.
CodeMark, managed by the Ministry of Business, Innovation, and Employment (MBIE), is the highest level of product assurance available. It is unchallengeable, giving our clients complete confidence in the safety and compliance of our systems.
Achieving CodeMark certification requires strict adherence to international standards, including ISO 10005, ISO 50001, ISO 14001, and ISO 9001. This rigorous process audits every stage—from raw material selection and manufacturing to installation and final application—ensuring consistent quality and performance.
With KE KELIT, you get certified assurance, reliability, and long-term savings built into every project.
European Innovation, Local Expertise, Lasting Impact
Despite its global presence, KE KELIT remains a family-run company, with CEO Karl Egger III upholding a long-standing vision of excellence.
These values are deeply embedded in our New Zealand team, where local expertise and a personalised approach set us apart. With experts located nationwide, we provide unmatched support to our growing customer base, backed by the knowledge and innovation of KE KELIT Austria.
At KE KELIT New Zealand, we take pride in delivering world-class European solutions tailored to the local market—helping to create safer, healthier buildings that stand the test of time.
