Stainless steel flexible service lines - the fit and forget solution
Leaks in distribution systems are costly. Added to the direct cost of the lost water that cannot be sold are the financial and environmental costs of finding, treating and storing more water to compensate for the losses. This problem affects rich and poor cities alike. Many utilities do not know the exact extent of the water loss in their system.
What are the different grades and properties?
There are more than 200 different grades of stainless steels, which are categorised in 4 main groups: austenitic, ferritic, martensitic and duplex.
UN Development goals
The UN’s 17 Sustainability Goals recognize that ending poverty must go hand-in-hand with strategies to build economic growth and address a range of social needs including health, education and job opportunities while tackling climate change and environmental protection.
