SuborDN200-500 Glassfiber Reinforced Plastic (GRP) Pipes
The study covers SUBOR Glassfiber Reinforced Plastic, GRP, pipes in the DN200 to DN500 diameter category. The declared category represents the production-weighted average of DN200, DN300, DN400 and DN500 pipes produced during the reference year. For this diameter category, the average raw material recipe and energy consumption were calculated based on annual production data. Accordingly, the results and compositions presented in this EPD reflect the weighted average for the specified diameter category. SUBOR GRP pipes are glassfiber reinforced thermosetting plastic composite pipes manufactured using Continuous Filament Winding technology. The pipe wall structure is mainly composed of glass fiber reinforcement, unsaturated polyester resin and silica sand/aggregate filler. Glass fiber reinforcement contributes to pressure resistance, rigidity and axial strength, while the polyester resin binds the composite structure through thermoset polymerization. Silica sand/aggregate filler is incorporated in the core structure to contribute to pipe stiffness. The broader SUBOR GRP pipe product family covers nominal diameters from DN200 to DN4000 and pressure ratings from PN1 to PN40 bar. Standard stiffness classes are SN2500, SN5000 and SN10000 N/m², while higher project-specific stiffness classes may be designed for special applications such as jacking pipes. These values describe the overall SUBOR GRP pipe product portfolio and shall not be interpreted as a DN-by-DN pressure or stiffness matrix for each EPD diameter category. The actual DN, PN and SN combinations are project/orderspecific and are reflected in the annual production data used for the weighted-average calculation. Higher project-specific stiffness classes may be designed where required, particularly for special applications such as jacking pipes. Standard pipe lengths are 6 m and 12 m, while special lengths up to 15 m may be manufactured upon request. The pipes are typically connected by coupling systems with elastomeric gaskets; the final joint type depends on the pressure class, installation method and project requirements. As this EPD declares a production-weighted average within the DN200 to DN500 category, it does not represent one single pipe diameter, pressure class or stiffness class. The applicable PN and SN combinations are project/ order-specific and are represented in the annual production data used for the weighted-average calculation of this diameter category. SUBOR GRP pipes are used in the following applications, subject to project-specific design requirements and compatibility with the conveyed fluid:
• Drinking water transmission lines and distribution networks
• Irrigation transmission and distribution lines
• Wastewater transfer lines, treatment plant pipelines and sewer lines
• Stormwater lines
• Raw water intake, discharge and cooling water lines of power plants
• Transmission and penstock lines of hydroelectric power plants
• Industrial pipeline systems, including desalination, chemical process and firefighting systems
• Renovation of existing pipelines by slip-lining
• Jacking pipes enabling trenchless installation, where applicable
• Use of GRP pipe sections/components in tank and silo production, where applicable
