Heat Shrink Sleeves, Cold Applied Tapes & Liquid Epoxies
In the 1990s we developed a way of welding steel water pipelines together without damaging the internal epoxy linings. It is called the E Joint system and is now used on every large diameter steel water pipeline in the UK, replacing cement lined steel pipes. We have supplied thousands of pipes and fittings into the UK, all between 600mm and 2000mm diameter, to all the main UK water companies.
Our largest current schemes are 75% of the pipes being supplied to Anglian Water’s SPA pipeline and all of the pipes being delivered to Northumbrian Water’s TSM pipeline.
We also supply the Canusa heat shrink joint protection and pipe spacers for all of these types of schemes.
All our large diameter water pipelines are made by a Turkish pipe mill called Erciyas, who make the E Joint pipes to our specification. The E Joint fittings are made by Lortub in NE France, who developed the E Joint with us 30 years ago. The director in charge of this division is Ian Harding, who is the knowledge lead in the UK for steel water pipelines.
FTPS’s unique anti-vandal locking lids are available in a wide range of sizes and are used by virtually every water company in the UK. The lids are quick and easy to install consequently saving water companies thousands of pounds each year. We introduced a new range of Smart Lids in 2020 which boost the signal from the leakage logger.
