Pipe Buckling and Pressure Loss
HDPE STABLEMAX piping is distinguished by its exceptional stability and resistance to buckling, thanks to an outer coextruded layer of white HDPE. Beyond its notable mechanical properties, STABLEMAX features reflective properties that reduce radiation absorption, significantly decreasing expansion when exposed to the elements.
The white color not only helps mitigate heat absorption but also speeds up the installation process, minimizes temperature build-up during the day, and enhances the effectiveness of internal and external technical inspections. The innovation behind STABLEMAX not only redefines resistance standards but also improves efficiency and practicality in its application.

COLORMAX pipes are an excellent solution for enhancing fluid transportation safety in the energy sector. By utilizing HDPE pipes with a colored outer layer, the identification of transported fluids throughout industrial piping systems is greatly simplified.
Correct fluid identification is crucial in industrial settings, particularly in the energy sector, where a variety of substances with different properties and associated risks are handled. The use of color-coded pipes provides a quick and effective way to distinguish between different types of fluids, helping to prevent errors and minimize safety risks.
In addition to serving as an extra safety measure, COLORMAX pipes offer an additional layer of protection to the system, ensuring the integrity and efficiency of industrial operations. This feature not only simplifies the identification process but also significantly contributes to the overall safety and performance of the system.
Road Reinforcement for Wind Energy
In the wind energy sector, the reinforcement and stabilization of roads are crucial to ensure safe and efficient access to turbine installation and maintenance sites. V-MAX sets the standard in geotextile materials, offering a comprehensive range that includes woven, non-woven, and high-performance geotextiles designed to tackle the unique challenges of the wind environment. These geotextiles provide durable and sustainable solutions that are fundamental to wind energy infrastructure.
V-MAX’s non-woven civil geotextiles are ideal for the construction and reinforcement of access roads in wind farms. Their ability to support the heavy traffic of installation and maintenance machinery helps prevent deformation and sinking of the roads, ensuring safe and continuous transit. Additionally, their filtration and erosion control functions contribute to maintaining the integrity of the roads, ensuring that access to wind turbines remains operational at all times, even in adverse weather conditions.
On the other hand, V-MAX’s non-woven environmental geotextiles are essential for soil separation and efficient drainage management in wind projects. These geotextiles facilitate water management by preventing the mixing of different soil types and promoting proper drainage. This drainage capability not only prevents erosion and soil degradation but also enhances the stability of turbine foundations, ensuring optimal performance and sustainable operation over the long term.
