Modern continuous galvanising techniques ensure that Tubosider pipes and stormwater attenuation tanks are highly durable. They are manufactured
to Highways Agency Standard BD12, which requires a design life of 120 years.
For aggressive and very aggressive environments, Tubosider pipes and tanks
can be finished with a choice of coatings of Trenchcoat polymer. This gives a
product with the unique strength of steel and the durability of polyethylene –
an unbeatable combination. Trenchcoat secondary coatings (seen black in
our photographs) are applied to both sides of a pipe and will add at least
another 60 years to the system’s service life.
