EPD: PE pipes for external sewer pipelines, SN2 to SN16, diameter 300 - 900 mm, Weholite Plus (Uponor Corporation)

As a company that constantly develops and cares for the environment, we introduce a new generation of Weholite pipes under the name Weholite PLUS, which are adapted to the current EU directives related to the use of plastics in the circular economy. Thanks to the combination of a new type of PE raw material with advanced technology, we have obtained a product with very good mechanical and functional properties. Weholite PLUS is a modern system of large-diameter, structural polyethylene (PE) pipes and fittings, designed for the construction of complete external sewer pipelines. The system is a result of the long-lasting research and development works carried out by our corporation. The combination of an appropriate raw material and an advanced technology enabled us to create a product of a high load resistance. The Weholite PLUS pipes constitute an optimal, external solution for the majority of projects connected with gravity sewers. Due to their low weight, they are quick and easy to install. They may be supplied in longer sections than the pipes made of traditional materials. The unique construction and the reliable jointing methods guarantee 100% tightness of the whole system, even after years of operation. The Weholite PLUS pipes are flexible and easily adjust to dynamic surroundings. According to Technical Opinion of Central Mining Institute (GIG) they may be applied in mining damage areas (up to level 4). They are resistant to corrosion and to damage done by salt and other chemical compounds that may be found in soil, sea water or in any other transported substances. Weholite PLUS pipes and fittings have National Technical Assessments (KOT) issued by the Institute of Building Technology (ITB), Research Institute of Roads and Bridges (IBDiM), and Railway Research Institute (IK). All these attributes make the Weholite PLUS pipes a truly universal product of numerous applications. Weholite PLUS are available in a broad range of diameters, from 300 to 900 mm, ensuring good adaptability for various projects. The standard pipe lengths are 12.5 m, 6.25 m, 3.125 m, however customized lengths are also available. Weholite PLUS pipes (socket or plain-ended) are manufactured with ring stiffness classes from SN2 to SN16 (kN/m2) for applications in various ground conditions. Manufacturing of special, non-standard pipes of any length and ring stiffness is possible. Uponor Infra offers a wide range of Weholite PLUS products, which can be used with any pipe system. Our comprehensive offer comprises segmented bends of any angle, tees, reducers, connectors, and non-standard elements used for a particular project. The Weholite PLUS system also encompasses access chambers and manholes (with prefabricated bottom or eccentric) and tanks.
