Benefits of Trenchless Pipe Rehabilitation Technology
Compared to open construction, trenchless construction methods have environmental and economic benefits.
In terms of environmental protection and constant increasing traffic density laying pipes without damaging the surface makes economic sense. Because of the expense of road surfaces, soil replacement and high groundwater levels, trenchless design can be more economical than conventional construction even at relatively shallow depths.
In addition, there are also considerable economic savings such as the avoidance of congestion, environmental protection and the elimination of weather-related downtime.
Benefits at a Glance
- Low intervention in landscapes and protected areas
- No disruption to road, rail and shipping traffic
- Reduction of noise and emissions
- Low interference with existing building fabric
- Protection of vegetation and species due to small construction sites
- Sustainability due to the use of existing infrastructure (host pipes)
Specific Benefits of Primus Line®
Easy to Use
- Reduced use of machinery
- Fast recommissioning
- Short construction period due to long insertion lengths
- Omission or limitation of groundwater treatment
- Up to 4,500 m at a time can be delivered on a transport drum
- Full piggability, also during operation
- Coarse cleaning of the host pipe only, as no adhesive is required
- Elimination of digging and transporting of large soil masses
- Small pits and reduction of roadworks
High Strength and Quality

- High abrasion and cut resistance of the outer coating
- No corrosion of Primus Line®
- Temperature-proof to 50° Celsius
High Flexibility
- Insertion through bends of up to 30°
- Fewer construction pits due to bendability
High Performance
- Minimal cross-section loss due to low wall thickness of 6.5 and 9.0 mm
- Improved flow properties of the pipe
