Supplied by Empire Infrastructure
ANCHORSTRONG™
Non-Buoyant Composite Pipe
Empire Infrastructure supplies ANCHORSTRONG™ from DN900 to DN3000, a non-buoyant composite pipe engineered for fast, cost effective installation of gravity sewer and stormwater in water-charged ground.
Why ANCHORSTRONG™
Buoyancy solved by the pipe
No Buoyancy Management
ANCHORSTRONG™ eliminates buoyancy management without dewatering or ballasting, which removes two of the slowest activities from a high groundwater installation.
Mass and Corrosion Resistance
The pipe combines the mass and structural strength of reinforced concrete with the corrosion resistance and pressure capabilities of Glass Reinforced Plastic.
Program and Cost Advantage
On high groundwater projects, removing dewatering and ballasting delivers a significant programme and cost advantage.
The Product
ANCHORSTRONG™
non-buoyant composite pipe
ANCHORSTRONG™ is a non-buoyant composite pipe engineered for fast, cost-effective installation in water-charged ground. It combines the mass and structural strength of reinforced concrete with the corrosion resistance and pressure capabilities of Glass Reinforced Plastic (GRP). ANCHORSTRONG™ eliminates buoyancy management without dewatering or ballasting, delivering a significant programme and cost advantage on high-groundwater projects.
Empire supplies ANCHORSTRONG™ across Australia and New Zealand, from DN900 through to DN3000, for gravity sewer and stormwater in water-charged ground.
