Nowadays, liners are mostly applied to products made of concrete, which must resist ever-increasing stresses caused by corrosive liquid, in particular in the area above the liquid, where gas with sulfuric compounds attacks and destroys the concrete and its reinforcement steel bars.
Even if the initial investment required for lined concrete ducts is greater than the more traditional solution, the maintenance cost is lower and the operating life is longer, reducing the possibilities of eventual breakdowns caused by collapses due to the vehicle traffic and/or material degeneration. This results in overall higher future savings, thus valorizing the initial investment. Concrete-reinforced plastic pipes or artifacts are the result of this application of this technique, which combines traditional century-old materials with modern anti-corrosive thermoplastic ones.
This technique has already found applications in the civil/construction field and in our daily life, with the concrete lining, but is conquering ever-increasing market shares also in the industrial sector, where is instead referred to metal products. The main reason for the success of this metal-equipment-lining technique is the reduced cost of the realization of these products. Such low cost is due to the fact that, thanks to the thermoplastic lining application, a low-quality yet suitably sized metal product can be enhanced by selecting a suitable inner liner, making it as good as an highly anti-corrosive and much more expensive alloy.
Thermoplastics liners are available in several executions and qualities and its application is carried out only by highly qualified personnel.
Hürner Italia Srl is not only ready to suggest and supply the most suitable liner for each application but also to provide the most qualified personnel for its assembly.
