Cured-In-Place-Pipe (CIPP)

PipeWorks specialises in CIPP rehabilitation of existing pipelines, a process involving no excavation or environmental impact and minimal site disturbance.

The system is faster and more attractive than traditional methods of pipe replacement. liners installed by PipeWorks' range from 100mm to one metre in diameter, up to 300m in length and include egg-shaped liners to old brick sewers.

The CIPP process involves installing a flexible resin-impregnated felt liner in an existing pipe and then curing it with steam or hot water. In most cases this process can be carried out in the space of a day, although larger liners may require longer curing times. 

Once cured the liner is a stand-alone structural pipe, designed to take the loads imposed by soil, water table and surface applied weights, such as vehicles and buildings.
