WHY DOUBLE WALLED CORRUGATED (DWC) PIPING SYSTEMS IS THE FUTURE OF SANITATION, STORM WATER, DRAINAGE AND NON-PRESSURE APPLICATIONS.
-
- Technically superior
- Higher corrosion and abrasion resistance
- Improved hydraulics
- Ability to deflect load, and transfer this to the surrounding soil, resulting in higher loading capability as a system than alternatives.
- Longer lifetime built to last for over 50 years
- Economically superior.
- Higher corrosion and abrasion resistance
- Improved hydraulics
- Ability to deflect load, and transfer this to the surrounding soil, resulting in higher loading capability as a system than alternatives.
- Resilient and durable system, with high chemical resistance and impact
- Better value than the alternative.
- Easier to transport.
- Easier to install – lighter, stronger and no need for specialist equipment.
It was a success story for Tilisi with the adoption of the DWC pipe systems which ensured reduced installation time, reduced labour, and transportation costs. Tilisi was also able to save over 22% on piping costs as compared to the initial plan they had opted to use.
Today we have such projects currently running both in the country and in the East African region.
Currently ongoing, Kiambu County project. Athi Water (the Developer) contracted China Henan, the contractor to make some upgrades to their existing infrastructure in one of the oldest metropolitan communities in Kenya. With difficult terrain, rivers, and several road crossings they chose DWC pipes due to its ease of installation, longer lifetime and overall cost effectiveness than enabled the Developer to increase the scope of works by over 15%.
Danco Saniflex DWC pipe comes in sizes ranging from DN 100 to DN 600 in diameter with load ratings of SN4 and SN8. Saniflex is the standard bearer in the African market for DWC. All pipes undergo rigorous testing following the international standard ISO 21138.
For further technical information and more detailed information on the advantages of DWC please visit the Danco website www.dancoplastics.com or contact the team on info@dancocapital.co.ke
We can be assured that the future of sanitation, drainage has already moved to DWC and welcome all stakeholders to move with Danco to improve lives for the next generation.
