Insituform CP™ (Composite Pipe)

Insituform CP™ is a high-strength, fiber reinforced composite CIPP gravity pipe product that can be used in the 24”-60” equivalent diameter range. Its unique “sandwich” wall construction provides the same long-term structural value as the non-reinforced Insituform® CIPP product with about half the pipe wall thickness. Insituform CP™ offers excellent structural integrity in circular and non-circular pipe reconstruction.

Materials & Structure
Insituform CP™ is reinforced with carbon fiber and/or corrosion resistant fiberglass materials. The design locates the structural reinforcing materials where they are needed, separated by traditional CIPP material. The Insituform CP™ wall design optimization can reduce the required thickness by about half. As with the traditional inversion Insituform ® CIPP product, there is a polyethylene coating on the inside pipe surface.

Advantages
Insituform CP™ provides a seamless, jointless “pipe-within-a-pipe” that restores structural integrity to and removes infiltration from sewers. It can be inverted into pipes with a wide range of shapes and can navigate bends similarly to Insituform ® CIPP. The thinner wall product is ideal for stabilizing odd-shaped brick sewers by providing the required structural support. Its reduced wall thickness and continuous inner surface provide increased flow capacity relative to the host pipe and more conventional rehabilitation products.

The reduced wall thickness of Insituform CP™ allows a greater length of tube to be impregnated with resin, “wet out,” in a factory setting and transported to the jobsite. At the jobsite, the longer tube lengths reduce the number of inversions allowing projects to be executed more rapidly. For similar reasons this product also minimizes the use of on-site wet out requirements, which can make projects more cost-effective.

When projects require setting up in congested traffic environments or within limited access easements, the opportunity to extend the installation limits to reduce project risk or interference can be better provided using the Insituform CP™ product.

Insituform CP™ is an economical solution for medium-sized diameter gravity flow pipes.
