Reliable piping is fundamental to the functioning and
economy of any community. Whether it is freshwater
distribution, highways drainage or for storm and wastewater
management, these networks must be durable with a
maintenance-free life expectancy running into decades. A
properly installed Weholite piping system can easily pass
100 years without any detrimental effect on its integrity.
We provide Weholite drainage pipelines and structures for
virtually any requirement in civil construction. One of its
main properties is the ability to work in synergy with the
surrounding soil. In fact, Weholite pipes and the enveloping
soil mass, working in tandem as a composite unit, is one of
the most remarkably synergistic systems in engineering.
When the soil is properly compacted around the pipe, the
load-carrying capacity of the pipe-soil system far exceeds
the individual capacity of either component by itself. This
gives Weholite distinct advantages when used under road.
Highway construction is not only a means of constructing a
surface to carry vehicles, but in many cases, provides a route
for all forms of water distribution services, The piping that
is buried under the surface of the roads has to have unique
properties to withstand the continual dynamic pressures of
heavy traffic passing on the road above. Weholite pipes are
designed specifically with this in mind.
Weholite is used in a variety of pipeline applications from
simple road or rail culverts, to the more demanding sanitary
networks. When used in conjunction with the endless array
of bespoke chambers, manholes and fittings the Weholite
system offers users opportunities to excel.
