ADS HDPE TWIN WALL PIPE
ADS HDPE pipe is a dual wall (outer corrugated wall and smooth inner wall) pipe that is manufactured from High Density Poly Ethylene (HDPE). The ADS flexible pipe was one of the first plastic pipes on the world market.
Over the last 20 years additional refinements have been made to extend the range of pipe sizes and to improve the joint integrity and ease of installation of these pipes. With the advancements in polymer science and structural design in the last decade the ADS HDPE pipe has reached a level where it actually outperforms and outlasts the more conventional concrete pipe and with increasing need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions around the world the ADS HDPE pipe is well positioned to lead the way. |
Low Cover - Only requires 300 mm cover to meet highway loads.
Low CO2 Production cost - 100 times lower CO2 cost per meter of pipe.
Low Cost - Quick and easy to install saving time and money.
The main benefits of ADS pipe are:
Low CO2 Production cost - 100 times lower CO2 cost per meter of pipe.
Low Cost - Quick and easy to install saving time and money.
The main benefits of ADS pipe are:
- Low Cover - withstands vertical pressure by transferring most of the load to the surrounding soil, which results in the pipe supporting highway loads at only 300 mm of cover*
- Quality and structural strength - has been extensively tested and certified against many international standards and has even performed well at fill heights of more than 30m (AASHTO , IAB, BAB, IAG, FAG)
- Meets EN13476 - Produced from virgin resins which meets European standards prohibiting the use of recycled resins for infrastructure projects
- Light weight - able to be easily manhandled into position
- Durable - has a very high abrasion resistance value
- Hydraulically efficient - maintaining a smooth surface for its entire life
- Very fast to install - 25 less joints for every 100 m laid
- Low CO2 - a greenhouse gas emission value that is typically 100 times lower than concrete pipe
- ADS pipe is available in sizes from 100 mm to 1500 mm diameter and comes in standard pipe length of 6.1 m
