Northwest Luncheon – Calgary, AB

Join us for an educational luncheon on the most up-to-date industry best practices for CIPP lining and how these can be used to react quickly to emergency situations.

Overview of CIPP good practices and how it relates to a 600mm emergency pipe repair under Deerfoot Trail:
This presentation will discuss the most up to date industry best practices for CIPP lining and how these can be used to react quickly to emergency situations such as an emergency repair done under Deerfoot Trail earlier this summer by Insituform Technologies. Having a local contractor available and a great working relationship with the local municipalities allowed Insituform to perform two trenchless spot repairs as well as a full-length rehabilitation on two critical segments of 600mm wastewater pipes running under Deerfoot Trail.
