Trenchless Pipe Lining Materials

The CIPP (cured-in-place pipe) manufacturing techniques we’ve developed over the years are still in place today all over the globe, making us the world leader in the industry of pipe rehabilitation solutions. We manufacture large- and small-diameter pipe liners, laterals, and calibration tubes for a range of applications:

•       Gravity sewer lines
•       High-pressure pipes
•       Potable water lines

Using our CIPP liners for pipe rehabilitation is a fast and affordable alternative to traditional methods like open-cut repair, which are expensive, time-consuming, hazardous, and disruptive to the community.

With our 100% integrated facilities, we have complete control over every aspect of the CPP manufacturing process, including the purchase of materials and our 28-stage quality assurance test. We only patronize the best suppliers, as the quality of pipe-lining material we use directly impacts the liner’s overall durability and strength.

What Type of Pipe-Lining Materials Are in CIPP Liners?

Most cured-in-place pipes consist of a resin-soaked felt tube with an impermeable exterior coating of polyurethane. However, the type of pipeline and the nature of its damage affects which pipe-lining material we use during manufacturing. Since every job is different, we provide more options than just our traditional felt liners, including a felt-fiberglass hybrid with superior strength and durability, making it ideal for pressurized pipeline repair.

Hardening Materials

Resin: Resin is easily curable with the application of heat, which creates an impermeable seal between the CIPP liner and the original damaged pipe. The resin begins as a viscous liquid and then cures into a tough, ultra-dense, corrosion-resistant material.

Polyurethane: During installation, we invert the CIPP liner to position the polyurethane coating on the interior of the host pipe, which is both impermeable and flexible, making it ideal for temperature extremes. It creates a seamless, jointless barrier that eliminates the risk of leaks or groundwater infiltration.

Pipe Liner

Standard Felt: Our standard CIPP liners are made from felt, which has a durable yet flexible texture, making it ideal for holding the hardening resin as it cures and adheres to the original pipe.

Hybrid Blend: We also manufacture hybrid felt-fiberglass CIPP liners for our customers with specialty projects. By blending the two materials, we developed one of the strongest and most durable CIPP liners on the market, making it perfect for potable water and pressurized sewer applications.
