Steinzeug-Keramo, a wienerberger company and a specialist in high-performance vitrified clay pipe systems, is set to showcase its KERA.Drive jacking pipes at Highways UK on 14-15^th October at The NEC Birmingham, Stand No. C96.

At the event, contractors, civil engineers, local authorities and other infrastructure professionals will be able to discuss how vitrified clay pipe sewer systems can support reliable, long-term asset performance and how trenchless installation can help deliver sewer infrastructure beneath roads, railways and other critical infrastructure while minimising disruption at the surface.

Visitors to the stand will be able to explore more about the KERA.Drive trenchless system, including pipe diameters from DN 150 to DN 600, suitable for guided auger boring, microtunnelling and pipe jacking. A comprehensive range of system components and accessories supports reliable installation across a variety of project requirements.

The Steinzeug-Keramo team will be on hand to discuss the specification of KERA.Drive vitrified clay jacking pipes and how their material and system characteristics support reliable installation and long-term sewer performance.

“Highways UK provides an excellent opportunity for us to speak directly with the people involved in designing, specifying and delivering road and infrastructure projects”, said Leon Woods, UK Country Manager at Steinzeug-Keramo. “Installing or extending sewer infrastructure beneath busy roads can present significant challenges, particularly where disruption needs to be kept to a minimum. We look forward to discussing how KERA.Drive and trenchless installation methods can support these projects, while providing the long-term performance required from the permanent sewer asset.”

For conventional open-cut methods, KERA.Base (normal strength) and KERA.Pro (extra strength) provide vitrified clay pipe systems in diameters from DN 100 to DN 1000, supporting new-build, rehabilitation and network extension projects.
