GRP PIPE SYSTEMS CEMENT & CONCRETE CAREFUL WATER USE WATER PLAYS A KEY ROLE IN THE PRODUCTION OF GLASS FIBER-REINFORCED PIPES (GRP). IT IS NEEDED FOR HEATING AND COOLING PIPES IN LARGE QUANTITIES. CURING IS BEST CONTROLLED BY PRECISE TEMPERATURE REGULATION. IN HOUSTON, HOBAS PIPE USA IS RELYING ON A NEW CIRCULATION SYSTEM THAT ENABLES THE CAREFUL USE OF WATER. The process water is now only minimally contaminated, thanks to the optimization of the automatic machine lubrication system, the fitting of new fabric filters, and the installation of an oil skimmer. By the end of 2020, Hobas Pipe USA will have invested more than 200,000 dollars in the project. A new process water filtration system, optimized water distribution, and new tanks for cold and hot water, each with a capacity of over 30,000 liters, have been installed during 2020. CIRCULAR ECONOMY Alpacem and panel manufacturer FunderMax will be pooling their expertise from 2021 as well as their purchases of alternative raw materials and fuels. In this way, both companies will be supporting the circular economy, a commitment in the corporate visions of Wietersdorfer companies, and reducing CO 2 emissions. As part of the new joint venture, purchasing will be a shared activity, as will research on the alternative raw materials and fuels of the future. THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY IS THE KEY TO SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTION WIETERSDORFER | THINK SUSTAINABLY ACT RESPONSIBLY
