As an α-nucleated homopolymeric polypropylene (PP-H), SIMONA® PP-H AlphaPlus® is predestined for use in waterworks. The fine crystallite structure of the material has a particularly positive effect on the surface roughness of the internal pipe surfaces carrying the media. This greatly reduces pipe friction and minimises pressure losses. In addition, the extremely low surface roughness is a key quality criterion when it comes to mitigating the risk of adhesion to the inner pipe surfaces and thus contamination of drinking water. These properties also proved to be a compelling proposition for our partner Keller Industriemontagen, who opted for SIMONA's PP-H AlphaPlus® products, among others, when selecting materials for the project.

SIMONA® PE Ovoid Pipes combine geometric benefits – high flow velocity for small quantities of water, improved discharge of large quantities of water – with the excellent material and processing properties of polyethylene.
The customer-specific solution of using an ovoid pipe without any base enabled a high pipelaying rate and thus led to rapid completion of the construction project.

Operating throughout Europe, agriKomp GmbH is a company specialising in the development and manufacture of biogas plants. All the major components of the plants are manufactured in-house. Owing to their modular design, they can be added to at any time, providing a very high level of flexibility. The digestion process uses liquid manure, dung, green material, silage and cereal. The key components of the biogas plants have to be made of a material with maximum corrosion resistance. Therefore, agriKomp GmbH opted for SIMONA® PE 100. In contrast to steel, SIMONA® PE 100 pipes and fittings combine excellent corrosion resistance with a high level of UV stability, which makes them the perfect choice when it comes to the construction of high-end biogas plants.

In 2010, within the scope of a research and development project at the Faculty of Architecture, Urban Planning and Landscape Planning at the University of Kassel, an innovative formwork system was developed for the purpose of producing optical fibre concrete with integral core insulation. By inserting optical light-transmitting fibres, light, colours and movement are silhouetted through the concrete. The formwork system has proved to be highly effective and suitable, also for the production of optical fibre concrete from other castable or pourable self-compacting materials or as a composite material.
