Urecon Ltd products

The use of Urecon shallow buried pre-insulated pipe can result in a substantial reduction of excavation costs and may permit earlier project completion. U.I.P.® pre-insulated pipe can be installed in the active frost zone (with low wattage electric tracing if necessary) and resist freezing. The use of Urecon pre-insulated pipe has permitted hundreds of northern communities to obtain year round piped potable water, resulting inmajor social and health benefits. Savings are greatest when rock is encountered as it is far less expensive to pre-insulate and shallow bury water and sewer pipes than to blast and deep bury in rocky conditions.

Urecon offers a complete range of pre-insulated pipe for the freeze protection of bridge crossings.

Urecon pre-insulated pipe and heat trace systems are ideally suited for the harsh conditions commonly found in mining.

Urecon pre-insulated and heat traced pipe is often used to maintain specific temperatures of buried or above grade chemical lines. Many chemicals used in water and wastewater treatment (alum, ferric chloride, sulfates and polymers) tend to ‘gum up’ at certain temperatures.

Urecon pre-insulated pipe and heat trace systems are commonly used in industrial applications where freeze protection or temperature maintenance is required.

Headquartered in Denmark, Logstor is the world’s pre-eminent producer of pre-insulated pipe systems employing over 1400 people in 9 production facilities.  Logstor is credited with having invented pre-insulated pipe technology and have supplied more than 160,000 km (99,500 miles) of pipe with over 40 years experience in fine tuning every detail. 

Throughout North America, the Urecon U.I.P.® insulation process is used in resort hotel developments, hospitals, and ‘campus style’ district cooling systems.  Used to move centrally chilled water for air conditioning - our highly efficient, factory applied polyurethane insulation reduces heat gain from warm soil (or ambient air temperature). This results in considerable energy savings for the end-user.

The term “URECON” is synonymous with pre-insulated pipe for district cooling throughout the tropical and sub-tropical climates of Latin America and the Caribbean.  Used mostly in resort hotel developments to distribute centrally chilled water for air conditioning - our highly efficient, factory applied polyurethane insulation reduces heat gain from warm soil (or ambient air temperature).  This results in considerable energy savings for the end-user.  Urecon pipe is also used for efficient movement of potable and domestic hot water required in hotel resort projects.

PEX-Flex is a pre-insulated flexible pipe ideally suited for hydronic heating and district energy transfer. Supplied in coils (single or dual configuration), this pipe system is economical, simple to install and highly effective even in harsh soil conditions.
