ADVANCED TRENCHLESS TECHNOLOGY
When something goes wrong at the jobsite, rapid action is needed. Trenchless technology is primarily leveraged for the installation of underground utilities, creating the least amount of surface disruption possible. But what happens when freshly installed pipelines actually need to be removed – due to damages, for instance? In such cases as well, a pipe rammer is the means of choice – and can become the driller’s best friend in a blink. Especially, if it’s immediately available.

Prior to the start of lockdown back in March, the company won a contract to install new water mains to three large council-owned allotments in the locality.
