water, drainage and underground tubes

Tubes for water transport and disposal have one advantage, at least. It is possible to control the quality and chemistry of the liquid, if these are factors and the economics are not prohibitive. In all other respects, these tubes are — like all tubes installed underground — in negative territory. In fact they face two formidable enemies: the payload and the environment. Fortunately, tube makers in these specialities operate from an informed knowledge of how to combat corrosion of both kinds. They have trained themselves to be able partners to those charged with the design, installation, and maintenance of water distribution systems for residential and commercial applications in any terrain. as water is necessary to human life, so the products and services showcased in this section are offered by people with a profound conviction that sound, perfectly produced and protected water and drainage tubes are critical components of our civic and industrial life.
