Infrastructure
Pipe Systems

Reliable and durable pipe infrastructure solutions are required to eliminate losses, save energy and better serve communities and industries in the future.

Innovative solutions to real challenges

Pipe infrastructures are vital and valuable community assets and are also a central aid to sustainable development. Whilst existing systems – especially in industrialised countries – need to be replaced due to leaking, inefficiency or age, new systems must be built in developing nations in order to serve the growing demand for energy, access to safe water and sanitation. Reliable and durable pipe infrastructure solutions are required to eliminate losses, save energy and better serve communities and industries in the future. Both our BorSafe™ family of PE pressure grades for infrastructure and pipe systems and our BorECO™ PP-based gravity pipe systems are high-performance materials that contribute to the production of high-quality, durable and leak-tight network systems with low environmental impact.

Unique BorSafe™ PE materials offer exceptional durability

BorSafe PE pressure grades for infrastructure and pipe systems are based on Borealis' proprietary Borstar® bimodal technology and meet or exceed stringent international standards, including those for drinking water and gas applications. This broad portfolio has been developed and expanded continuously over the past 40 years by way of intensive research and field experience, incorporating feedback from pipe producers, installers, network managers and distributors. We offer cost-effective solutions and our materials inspire confidence along the entire value chain, from producer to end consumer, thanks to attributes such as:

  • Easy processing properties that yield outstanding extrudability
  • Excellent low sag behaviour
  • Superior resistance to slow crack growth

Decades of trouble-free operation thanks to BorECO™ PP-based systems

Because non-pressure pipelines are exposed to continuous static and dynamic loads, extremely durable and leak-tight pipes are essential. BorECO PP-based gravity pipes are durable and provide decades-long peace of mind to the network owner. Important features include:

  • Lower weight yet higher performance
  • Good stiffness, excellent chemical resistance and temperature performance
  • High impact resistance and ability to withstand ground movements mean better environmental protection

Sustainable solutions for pipe infrastructure networks

Our ongoing aim is to provide cost-effective solutions to real challenges by working together with our partners. We are committed to offering tailored solutions to improve system quality, reliability and durability through product innovations. BorSafe continues to offer the leading high-performance PE materials when it comes to facilitating access to drinking water, improving transmission networks for gas, district heating and industrial fluids. BorECO is the material of choice for the production of solid wall and structured wall sewage pipe systems.
