600 meters SaniTube DN400
A drinking water pipeline was repaired in 2018 by the contractor Pollex. SaniTube was chosen for this task because it is quick and easy to install. One of the biggest challenges for Pollex was the rehabilitation of the line, which ran under a road. Thanks to SaniTube and its trenchless installation method, a quick and efficient solution could be found that would not disturb the local community or cause major disruptions to the end customer.
