Metal piping materials face many problems like eventual corrosion, which can then threaten the integrity of drinking water, leakage losses. Sometimes expensive chemicals / gases get wasted due to leakage. This is where PVC & PE pipes shine. Rather SMR’s not only provide pipes but also provide all necessary products and solutions. They are invulnerable to underground external and internal corrosion. Most cities face burst water mains, sometimes quite regularly, and this is due to corrosion of water pipes. PVC / PE piping has proven to have the lowest pipe break rate when compared to cast iron, ductile iron, concrete, steel, and asbestos cement.
PVC/PE pipes also show excellent resistance to many chemical reagents and disinfectant chemicals. This makes them a top choice for most water projects as they can carry the most strong acids, alkalis, aqueous solutions, fluorides, plating solutions, brine, mineral oils, and much more.
SMR’s provide PE Pipes, PVC Pipes, Plumbing pipes, Solar systems, Filtrations systems, Sprinklers system, Landscape systems, Automation systems and chemical injection systems facilities.

Underground Drainage Systems
In any industry, there are two types of drainage systems: Storm water drains and Industrial effluent drainage systems-cum-sanitary water sewers.
Storm drains are open drains on streets or closed pipelines below the ground. Storm drains discharge water as well as pollutants and litter is picked up on the way. Industrial effluent drainage system-cum-sanitary water sewers collect the industrial effluent from different process industries and the wastewater generated inside industrial buildings, such as sink, shower and toilet discharges. The effluent and wastewater is then transported through the sewer system to the industrial effluent treatment plant, where it is treated before being discharged.
The installation or rehabilitation of underground drainage systems can be significantly faster and easier with use of PE pipes and fittings.
Rainwater Harvesting System
Rainwater harvesting is an innovative alternative water supply system in an industrial area where the water for industrial processes is needed as a top priority. In this method, rainwater is captured, conveyed and stored for later use in industry. Implementing rainwater harvesting at each industrial building is beneficial because it reduces immediate demand on existing water supply, and reduces surface run-off in industrial areas, reduces ground erosion, and contamination of surface water along with industrial chemicals.
The rainwater collected can be used for landscape use, storm water control systems and toilet flushing and garden-lawn watering, in-house water uses in industrial buildings for sanitary purposes, fire protection etc.
By using a rain water harvesting system in industrial areas, it is possible to channelize rain water to recharge borewells, open ponds etc. using a pipeline and SMR Filtrain. This helps in increasing the underground water table level in industrial areas. Our product, Filtrain Rainwater Harvesting Filter, offers the added benefit of water collection from industrial sheds / terrace and accumulation along with the piping system and storage facility.
Fluid Conveyance System
In this system, water, chemical or any type of fluid in an industry is conveyed through the network of interconnected PE pipes and fittings which are 100% leak-proof, with long life. The Life Cycle Analysis shows that PE pipes are totally eco-friendly due to their low energy consumption in fluid conveyance pipelines. Owing to their smooth internal surface, PE pipes need lesser electricity for pumping the water. Since PE pipes are flexible in nature, it can easily take the shape of ground terrain inside industrial areas or take the shape of the trench profile which directly leads to saving accessories. PE Pipes are available in required lengths up to 12m straight lengths.
The water conveyed through SMR PE pipes is fit for human consumption and as PE pipes are inert in nature any type of fluid, chemical, effluent can be conveyed. PE pipes are light, easy to handle, transport & install. There is no scale build-up, no-corrosion, no effect of sunlight/UV rays if installed above ground. PE pipes & fittings are available up to 2500mm outer diameter.

PE Offshore Piping Systems
SMR PE pipes have been increasingly used for various marine applications such as effluent outfalls, river and lake crossings, fresh and salt water intakes. The combination of air and water; particularly seawater, can be very corrosive to conventional metal pipes hence PE pipes become the pipe of choice.
Other beneficial features like light weight, floatation properties, integral joints stronger than the pipe, flexibility of the pipe, convenient short cold bending radius etc., are some of the key elements. PE pipes that are used for offshore purposes can safely shift or bend to accommodate itself to altered bedding which is the result of under-scouring that usually occurs due to strong wave and current action under water.
The integral joints with high tensile strength have also made it possible to use the pipes for installation under water bodies by using the Horizontal Directional Drilling (HDD) method. SMR PE pipes & fittings of up to 2000mm outer diameter have been used in Bangladesh for the applications mentioned above. So far more than 220 km of SMR PE pipes of above size range have been used all over Bangladesh for marine installations. SMR PE pipes and fittings are also available up to 2500mm outer diameter.
PE Fire Hydrant Pipelines
In all industries it is mandatory to have a fire protection system in place. SMR fire hydrant pipes and fittings are fire resistant (FR) PE piping systems for application in fire hydrant pipelines, fire fighting system, underground mines and where fire safety is a major concern. State-of-art testing facility is available in-house (flame chamber from Altas, USA) for conducting fire retardant tests. The function of FR chemical is to improve the Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI). LOI is a measure of the percentage of oxygen that has to be present to support combustion of the plastic. Higher the LOI the lower the flammability.
SMR fire hydrant PE Pipe significantly reduces the spread of flame in a fire. As a result of excellent localized surface charring properties, carbonaceous char forms on the product after being exposed to flames which effectively protects the pipe and its contents from ignition.
