SLM® DCT
Pipe system with integrated quality testing
SLM® DCT is a pipe system with an additive protective layer and integrated conductor strips for testing the integrity of the pipe system directly after installation.
Proof of damage-free installation after trenchless installation (integrity test)
Permanent Localization Capability
H2 Ready
Polyethylene pipes have been established for decades for the construction and renewal of distribution networks for natural gas. However, polyethylene pipes are also suitable for the transport of hydrogen. In addition to the DVGW certificate for gas pipes, the DBI confirms the successful testing with 100% hydrogen. All egeplast gas pipes bear the H2ready warranty mark.
