Our Mission

To provide pipeline owners with applicators that employ high-quality resins, equipment, and tools. These solutions are designed to restore the structural integrity of North America's pressure pipes, improve pipeline efficiency, and extend the lifespan of assets in a more cost-effective and timely manner than traditional open-cut replacement and other lining methods.

Resiline® products have undergone extensive testing to ensure fit for purpose for the SIPP rehabilitation of aging and deteriorating potable and non-potable pressure pipelines including potable water, force mains, fire mains, and industrial pipelines. These products are engineered for rapid curing, robust durability, operational efficiency, minimal service interruption, and adherence to rigorous international standards. Consequently, they are the preferred SIPP lining product in the United Kingdom, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

Spray In PLace Pipe Rehabiliation

Our lining process helps provide a cost effective solution to many of the problems common to potable water distribution systems. Its unique properties, combined with a trenchless spin cast application process, can efficiently coat the existing infrastructure—restoring internal pipe diameters, increasing flow, improving efficiency, minimizing water loss and helping to prevent additional corrosion and build up of scale and tuberculation.
