We are delighted to announce the exciting launch of a new dual contained pipework system, Durapipe Guardian.
Specifically aimed at addressing the requirements set out in AMP5, Durapipe Guardian is a unique dual containment pipework system – designed to cater for water treatment applications.
Water Authorities are dictating that all pipework systems which are not located in a contained area, such as pipework that passes near gantries or above public areas, need to be dual contained as an increased safety measure, as well as risking potential contamination.
Addressing these needs, Durapipe Guardian is a unique pipework system that incorporates a patented Centralok system, which provides a solid fixed fitting, offering a true point of difference from other products on the market.
This sturdiness makes the system much easier to install, as the inner pipe is in a fixed position and can be easily jointed, compared with alternative dual containment products where the inner section moves freely. The fixed fitting also means there is half the number of joins in the system, significantly reducing the number of potential leak paths to offer an exceptionally reliable pipework system.
Manufactured in PVC-U material, Durapipe Guardian is ideal for water and waste treatment applications as it allows the safe transportation of different fluids and some chemical concentrates without fear of corrosion and environmental pollution.
Commenting on the new product launch, James Roper, industrial brand manager for Durapipe UK said: “The start of the AMP5 period will see a huge demand for dual containment pipework systems to meet the requirements and we wanted to ensure we could offer customers a truly reliable and cost effective system.
“Durapipe Guardian is the only dual containment system that offers a fixed inner pipe fitting, which not only increases reliability and performance but also significantly reduces installation costs through the speed and ease of fitting.
Available now, with a complete range of fittings, Durapipe Guardian is available in sizes from ½inch # 2inch up to 8inch # 12inch”.
Introducing the EasyFit Ball Valve
We are delighted to announce the launch of another ‘first’ for the industry with our new and unique Easyfit ball valve.
Unlike other valves available to customers, the Durapipe Easyfit valve allows customers to brand or label the valve through specialist software that is provided with the product. This innovative technology means that companies can easily ‘own-brand’ the valve or alternatively label the valve with the chemical that the pipework is carrying, increasing plant efficiency as pipelines are instantly identifiable.
