Quality products for the Middle East

At this year’s IFAT, the EADIPS FGR presentation at the Forum in Hall A5 was given by Peter Waßmuth (Duktus (Wetzlar) GmbH Co. KG). The presentation, entitled “The implementation of infrastructure measures in the Middle East with ductile iron pipe systems”, gave a thumbnail description of the activities of Duktus overseas. A rapidly expanding population and changing ­climate conditions are just two arguments which alerted the audience to the need for investment in the drinking and wastewater infrastructure in the Middle East. Right now, high quality ductile cast iron piping systems adapted to the extreme installation conditions have an essential role to play. In addition those visiting the new Duktus Stand at the trade fair were able to receive information about the various coating and joint technologies for modern piping systems. There were technical discussions which relied on many years of experi­ence to illustrate just why it is worthwhile investing in the best quality when building infrastructures.
