Industry leaders get behind No-Dig Down Under

HOBAS, stand 36

HOBAS CC-GRP pipe was recently utilised in a tunnel boring project in Queensland that will carve out a new sewer for the region. The project involves the installation of 5.2 km of HOBAS pipe as new trunk sewer main that will increase the capacity of the Woolloongabba sewerage system to cater for development and population growth in the area. Read more about this project, and Hobas’ involvement, here.

Interflow, stand 30

Over the past year, Interflow has completed cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) projects worth over $A10 million lining ovoid sewers in New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia. CIPP liners have ranged from the largest sizes available in Australia – the 1,300 mm x 990 mm liner for Hunter Water – through to 355 mm x 255 mm liners installed for several water authorities.

Kembla Watertech, stand 49

Leading pipeline renewal specialist Kembla Watertech recently undertook a project to renew a major stormwater pipeline running through Biggera Creek Flood Detention Basin on the Gold Coast, which was a first for Kembla’s experienced spiral wound lining team. The technology chosen to renew this pipe was Kembla’s Spiral Wound Pipe Sliplining (SWP SL) process. Read more about how they did it here.

Vermeer, stand 50

Vermeer’s AXIS guided boring system was recently used to install part of the new Yarra Park Water Recycling Facility just outside the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground. The facility’s design and build operator chose the Vermeer AXIS in order to achieve pinpoint, on-grade installation accuracy with minimum site visibility and minimal environmental impacts.
