Quality
Hepworth/Wavin Clay drainage systems are Kitemarked to EN295. Regular third party inspections are made by UK, European and worldwide quality inspectors.
Chemical Resistance
As vitrified clay is one of the most inert materials in existence, the pipes are unaffected by any effluent acceptable in an adopted sewer system or by aggressive ground conditions.
Strength
Clay has the ability to withstand high imposed loads. The pipe strength alone is sufficient to withstand most loading situations, with minimal reliance on bedding material. Equally, this strength allows the use of as-dug or recycled aggregate as bedding material, depending on site ground conditions.
