An ageing thirty year old concrete sewage pipeline was in dire need for an upgrade as extensive corrosion on the line has occurred and leakages were common. Maintenance was becoming futile and it was imperative to stop the spillage into the environment. Due to the non-corrosive nature of Flowtite GRP Pipes and the long lifespan of the product it was the ideal choice in material. The project has had many challenges from the local business forum which has delayed the project.
