PROJECTS & CONTRACTS

Incledon’s scope of work comprises the supply of 2,4 km of

400 mm class 16 MPVC and 700 m of 400 mm Class 30 ductile

iron pipe, as well as related engineering components to Xesibe

Construction, Brendon Pelser, civils sale representative – Eastern

Cape, Incledon, explains.

“Incledon’s well-trained civils team and strong supplier

relationships ensure the client has peace of mind by accessing

best-of-breed brands that comply with local and international quality

standards,” Pelser explains.

Tekflo valves, supplied exclusively supplied in Southern Africa by

Incledon, were specified for the project, along with AVK and Vent-O-

mat Air valves, for which Incledon holds preferred distributor status.

“Incledon was chosen as the preferred supplier by the client as

it could get all of its materials from us, meaning it did not need to

purchase from multiple companies, open multiple accounts, and be

concerned about multiple delivery dates.

“Secondly, the Incledon product range fulfilled the pre-requisite

that the bulk of the material be manufactured locally which, in turn,

boosts the local economy and supports job creation,” Pelser notes.

35 countries. The pipe conforms to BS EN 545:2010/ISO 2531:2009,

with push-on joints. The standard length is 5,5 m, with the option of

supplying shorter lengths as permitted by the standard. Incledon is

also supplying socketed accessories such as EPDM rubber gaskets

and lubricant.

Once completed, the irrigation scheme will feed water from the

Ncera River to the macadamia nut farms located in the area. Xesibe

Construction is forging ahead with the project, with 70% of the

pipeline supplied by Incledon already laid.

Pelser adds that the Eastern Cape is a key focus area for

Incledon, as the majority of the area is rural and in dire need of

water-supply infrastructure to villages, schools, and outlying areas.

“The region has so much potential, with many new projects in the

pipeline,” Pelser concludes. These include the KwaBhaca Water

Supply Project for Ward 7 in East London, in conjunction with

LNP Construction.
