Health, Safety and Environmental Concerns
Health - Pipe Patch CIPP cured in place point repair trenchless technology utilizes a patented non-hazardous resin that is odor-less and non-flammable. Pipe Patch CIPP point repair trenchless technology is safe for installers and the community.
Safety - Work sites are much safer to citizens, traffic and workers due to PipePatch’s trenchless technology. OSHA estimates that nearly 63 workers are killed in trenching accidents each year. The accident rate of trenching work is 112% higher than that of construction in general. PipePatch uses a unique air activated flow-thru packer for its CIPP cured in place expansion process. No dangerous steam or hot water is necessary.
Environmental - Because PipePatch CIPP cured in place resin is non-hazardous, it requires no special transport or disposal considerations and is completely safe for the environment.
PipePatch’s trenchless technology eliminates:
- Soil Disruption - contaminated soil is often found at pipeline construction sites requiring specialized equipment and personnel for disposal.
- Air Pollution - caused from fine soil particles being wind blown, motor vehicle emissions due to heavy equipment and traffic congestion.
- Water Pollution - open trenches can fill with rain and water causing soil erosion and contaminated solids runoff into streams, rivers and sewers.
- Noise Pollution - heavy equipment produces level of noise that can cause a great deal of trouble to hospitals, schools, businesses and residents.
