Customized Components
HDPE Pipes:
- Suitable for all dredging and mining applications
- Dual-layer co-extrusion combining abrasion resistance and friction reduction
- Fully compatible with flotation systems for high-efficiency integrated solutions
- Superior material technology combined with advanced engineering
- Up to 3 times longer service life than standard HDPE or steel. Reduced operation costs, maximal efficiency.
- Engineered to minimize pressure losses, resist chemical and mechanical wear and ensure maximum flow performance even with highly abrasive materials (up to 270 MPa)
- Available in diameters from Ø110 mm to Ø1200 mm
- Minimized energy consumption by reduced pump load and friction losses
- Patent protected technology. European standards
- Environmental responsibility: lower CO₂ emissions and minimal microparticle dispersion
- Ease of use: lightweight, quick to install, minimal downtime and maintenance
- Reliability, flexibility, and durability in every operating condition
- Training, on-site support, certification programs
Reinforced Flexible Rubber Hoses:
- Engineered to withstand the toughest conditions — abrasion, chemical exposure, high pressure, and temperature fluctuations
- Superior flexibility optimal for mobile lines or heavy-duty operations, lower weight that simplifies handling and installation – saving time and cost
- Perfect sealing, long service life, easy maintenance
- Versatility and integration with existing systems and varying pressure levels
- Wide range of diameters and configurations
- Offer superior characteristic compared to steel pipes
KFC® System – internal “Blades” Enhancing Hydraulic Performance System:
- A system of “blades” precisely positioned internally, creating continous turbulant rotation
- Dual fluid action: rotational and laminar flow, preventing large particles to settle at the bottom during dredging
- Enhancing the internal hydraulic performance of the pipelines, reducing abrasion, pressure loss, and environmental impact
- Extending pipe service life service, reducing measurable operational costs, system idle time and energy costs
- Can be fully integrated with pipelines with dual layer co-extruded with an anti-abrasive inner layer and friction reducer
- Proprietary, patent protected
- Measurable positive environmental impacts contributing to the sustainability of dredging operations; reduction of CO2 emissions, microplastic release; reduction of up to X2 in microplastics release (compared to standard pipelines with friction reduction); reduction of up to X2 in dredger fuel consumption (compared to standard pipelines with friction reduction).
