Industrial Applications

Plastic piping offers numerous benefits for many industrial applications. They are corrosion-free, have excellent chemical resistance and have superior abrasion-resistant qualities compared with less advanced materials. PE-HD pipe has been used extensively in both the mining and chemical industries.

When their production is dependent upon it, companies demand high quality of their pipework systems. In addition to the benefits in performance and life cycle costs, plastic piping is easy and safe to install because of its light weight, long pipe lengths and flexibility.

 

KWH Pipe offers several types of piping solutions suitable for different industrial applications: For gravity and low-pressure applications, Weholite is available from DN/ID 300-3500mm. Some of its industrial applications are tanks, marine outfalls and intakes and penstock for hydroelectric plants. Currently the global focus is on finding different ways to produce energy and doing so in an environmentally friendly manner. Large diameter structured-wall Weholite pipe is the ideal choice for penstock owners.

 

For pressure applications, KWH Pipe has been selling the WehoPipe solid wall PE-HD pipe for more than 50 years. WehoPipe is available in sizes up to OD 1600mm. For transportation of combustible gases, fluids and powders where static charges need to be avoided, WehoAntistatic offers all the benefits of PE-HD pipes in combination with antistatic surfaces at a competitive cost. Polyethylene pipe has also been used extensively in the mining industry for many years.

 

Gas pipelines are a part of industry, and KWH Pipe supplies WehoGas for gas pipelines, as well as Weholite pipes to accommodate for example combustion gas discharge pipes.
