“Every RS Technik solution is fundamentally grounded in providing proven, effective andreliable alternatives to traditional pipe repair, agreed HammerHead interim president and CEO of Charles Machine Works Rick Johnson. “Combine their products with our HammerHead HydraLiner CIPP line of installation equipment and consumables—not to mention our full line of pipe bursting equipment— and our customers have access to every advantage possible for restoring gravity and pressure sewer, water and industrial pipe infrastructures.

“Our companies share that same entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for creating solutions for the underground infrastructure industry, which makes this union such a natural fit. We’re sure our customers will see that right away. Both companies are solution oriented and innovation driven. In the future, we’re even looking forward to the possibility of our R&D teams cooperating on the next generation of trenchless solutions.”
