SAERTEX multiCom®, distributed by Pipe Core, is a leader in innovative trenchless pipe rehabilitation solutions, now with two major sustainability achievement that strengthen its position in the industry.
The company has received a Gold Rating from EcoVadis, placing it among the top five per cent of all companies evaluated worldwide and the top two per cent in the textile industry.

This recognition highlights SAERTEX multiCom’s commitment to sustainability across environmental, ethical, and labour practices.
Additionally, SAERTEX multiCom is the first German manufacturer of GRP liners to publish Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for its entire product range, providing independently verified environmental impact data that is increasingly important in project tenders.
Sustainability is deeply embedded in SAERTEX multiCom’s operations. The company supplies UV-cured GRP liners for wastewater, pressure, and potable water pipelines, ensuring long-lasting, low-impact solutions.
By achieving the EcoVadis Gold Rating and publishing EPDs, SAERTEX multiCom reinforces its commitment to sustainable trenchless solutions. With sustainability becoming a key factor in infrastructure planning and procurement, these milestones not only benefit the environment but also help installers meet evolving tender requirements.

Valid for five years, they position SAERTEX multiCom, and its customers, for future industry demands, particularly in sustainability-driven markets like Scandinavia.
