At the event, visitors will have the opportunity to explore the company’s products firsthand and engage with experts to learn how these solutions can be integrated into new installations or sewer renovations. Steinzeug-Keramo´s vitrified clay pipes can be used for open trench, pipe jacking or sewer renovation and are available in diameters 100 – 800 mm.
They have long been recognised for their durability to withstand harsh conditions, making them a preferred choice for infrastructure projects. The company has been manufacturing vitrified clay pipes in Germany for 170 years.
Being impervious to hydrogen sulphide found in sewer systems makes Steinzeug-Keramo’s products suitable for environments where aggressive substances are present. Their chemical resistance ensures an ultra-longer service life, making them suitable for a wide range of challenging applications. The oldest vitrified clay pipe from Steinzeug-Keramo that is still in service is 167 years and counting.
