Insituform Wins International ‘Innovative Product’ Award for iPlus™ Composite Pipe at Poland No-Dig Conference
Insituform Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq Global Select Market: INSU) received the 2008 Innovative Product award at the No-Dig International Conference in Poland for the Company’s iPlus™ Composite pipe.
The product is next-generation cured-in-place pipe that is reinforced with carbon and/or glass fibers. The fiber reinforcement provides a structural solution that is roughly half the thickness of traditional pipe. In addition, the iPlus™ Composite pipe uses less resin and takes less time to cure, making it an effective and time-saving solution. iPlus™ Composite pipe is suitable for the rehabilitation of medium- to large-diameter gravity pipes.
The award was presented at the No-Dig International Conference in Kielce, Poland, April 9 – 11.
“It’s a great honor for Insituform to receive this award,” said Rafal Chart, General Manager of Insituform Sp. z.o.o in Krakow, Poland. “It’s clear that our customers really like the concept of iPlus™ Composite pipe.”
Chart said almost 1,100 meters (3,600 feet) of iPlus™ Composite liner will be installed soon in two projects in Ostroleka and Poznan, Poland.
