These repair and renewal systems are comprised of custom-designed combinations of specialized polyurethanes and (in the case of the MICP product) a carbon fiber matrix that creates a fully structural Class IV lining product.

MICP and EXL are installed using SippTech’s advanced robotics platform – an industry game-changer which will improve the safety, efficiency and quality of pipelining projects, delivering feasible and cost-effective alternatives to current large diameter pressure pipe rehab systems.
