NO DIG PIPE LINING
R2 Pipe Tech Ltd working closely with our partner Schur Lining Technologies Ltd bring unprecedented levels of expertise,experience and commitment to the pipe lining sector.
Combined experiences of over fifty years allows our service to provide not only a cost effective solution across a wide range of pipe dn (32mm to 2500mm) but also to carry out the job in a cost effective and professional manner. Our fully trained crews can survey, report remediate de-sanitise and return a pipe to service often on the same day.
Our lining materials have potable water approvals,,we also have coatings with approvals for the Oil,Gas and foul water sectors.
Using Schur’s modern in-situ pipe robotic lining technologies it is possible to reline the pipe from the inside using fully certified DWI and NSF approved semi structural coatings.
Pipes from 32mm dn to 2500mm dn can be relined, holes, cracks and fissures up to 6mm can be sealed. The process is fully documented and quality controlled using the WERMS software which controls each application.
The coatings have a “hoop strength” or structural strength which means they do rely on the host pipe for adhesion, meaning that even a pipe in degraded stae can be lined to create a new pipe within the host pipe.
Due to the fragile nature of the existing pipe, cleansing has to be limited to jetting and light mechanical cleaning. All debris and sludge is removed form the pipe to ensure the surface is clean and ready for the coating application
Post lining cleaning
Following the cleaning and lining process the pipe is thoroughly cleansed and sterilised using the proven in the field Steri-Klenze process, this was developed by Schur and Yorkshire water over 15 years ago.
