What is trenchless technology?
Trenchless technology encompasses a variety of methods for installing and rehabilitating underground utility systems, without the surface disruption typically caused during excavation in conventional pipe replacement and repair.
The trenchless technology industry is experiencing significant growth worldwide. Major investment is forecast, with more and more companies getting involved in one or more of the current trenchless methods:
- Pipe Lining, also known as, CIPP and Slip Lining
- Pipe Bursting
- Horizontal Directional Drilling, or HDD
- Microtunneling
