egeplast pipe systems are H2ready

The Gas Technology Institute DBI gGmbH in Freiberg (DBI) has awarded egeplast the H2ready warranty mark for its egeplast 9010® RC and egeplast SLM® 3.0 gas pipes, following the completion of tests and submission of all relevant documents.

For several decades, DBI has been an accredited and DVGW-recognized testing laboratory for gas appliances and fittings. To ensure a reliable supply of emission-free hydrogen in the future, DBI has gained experience and established testing rules based on national and international research projects, which the egeplast 9010® RC and egeplast SLM® 3.0 gas pipes meet. As part of a joint research project with a major gas supplier, a pipe construction with an integrated barrier layer, improved with regard to permeation, was also tested and is now permitted to bear the H2ready warranty mark.

With egeplast pipe systems featuring this barrier layer, emission losses can be minimized in the future.
