Why rehabilitate old cast iron, ductile iron or asbestos cement pipe?
The overall quality and quantity of drinking water is a constant concern to municipalities across North America. This is what has motivated FER-PAL to develop innovative structural pipe lining solutions. The traditional method of main cleaning and Cement Mortar Lining by open-cut replacement was the sole option. Although acceptable, advancements have been made and are available to municipal engineers. What is the alternative? Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining.
