The German company DRK 32 GmbH, a member of the Wolftank Group, successfully commercializes its double-walled pipes, bringing excellence and total safety to its customers' facilities. The firm, which also offers the DOPA® 6N lining system, thus offers a complete double-walled model which ensures quality and durability in the installations in which it is applied.

What is the double-walled pipe system?

The double-walled pipe system consists of an inner and an outer pipe. The space between the inner and outer pipe serves as an interstitial space; in other words, it is part of a leak detection system that usually is monitored with inert gas using the positive pressure principle or with negative pressure leak detectors.

But where can it be used? The truth is that gas stations and plant constructions are the most common part of DRK 32’s market, as this pipe allows these customers to invest in a safe system which assure them their business will have security and will not be interrupted by any kind of leakage or other habitual incidents when using other pipes in the market.

But Hermann Niedermayer, CEO of the company, also states how other kind of business demand more and more the DRK pipe, especially in the chemical industry. Not surprising at all, that all type of industries which currently work with potentially hazardous and pollutant liquids resort to DRK 32 looking for the excellence.

In addition, the piping system, according to type, is completely available for underground and for above-ground facilities.

The DRK 32 pipe entails many advantages: this system, due to its stability, is approved for earthquake zones, it has fixed bearings (nodes), its standard length without fixed points is 50 metres (this allows to build a normal filling station without junctions or expansion joints) and, finally, its installation depth is 0.5 metres which enables an uncomplicated connection to the tanks as well as remote filling shafts.

In the other hand, implementing double wall piping also means prevent and avoid any risk of contamination. Florentina Niedermayer, Deputy Manager Director of the Company, declares how important this aspect is also for them: “When implementing double wall systems, in pipes as well as in tanks, we are also promoting an environmental service, as leakages are totally prevented. This makes us feel that our product means not only a benefit for our customers — which of course we always look for, but also for the environment”.

How to install the system?

DRK 32 offers two possibilities to install the system:

Moreover, when you order the prefabricated and fabricated pipes via DRK 32 GmbH, the licence fees are already included.

In both cases, a leak detection system — which must monitor the interstitial space — is required.
