STANDARDS

Standardisation is fundamentally important

The compatibility and interchangeability of vitrified clay pipes from any manufacturer makes maintenance and expansion of existing networks particularly easy. According to the European Standard EN 295, all vitrified clay pipes with the same diameter and connection system (C, F) as well as the same crest compressive strength are interchangeable. This is unique on the market for sewer pipes.

Enhanced operating comfort
Individual pipe elements can be easily integrated into existing sewer systems. The parts always fit together perfectly.

More planning reliability
Standardisation and many years of experience with vitrified clay pipes allow more precise planning – both financially and in terms of time.

Quick assembly
All parts fit together quickly and easily. Installation can therefore be carried out quickly and is easy on the budget.

Free freight trade
All materials required for the installation of pipes and fittings are specified in the European standard.

Quality standard
Vitrified clay pipes are processed very carefully and precisely on the basis of the standard applied. Standards exists to make quality.

Low stresses
The good fitting accuracy of vitrified clay pipes reduces material stresses to a minimum.
