How Oil-Based PU Grout is Saving Cities From Billion-Dollar Pipe Disasters

The Ticking Time Bomb Beneath Your Feet

America's water infrastructure is rated D+ by civil engineers. Every year:

• 240,000 water main breaks occur

• 6 billion gallons of treated water are lost

• Cities spend $1M/mile replacing pipes

The Old Way = Financial Suicide

Traditional pipe repair means:
🚧 Digging up streets (businesses hate you)
⏳ 6-12 month projects (drivers hate you)
💰 Budget overruns up to 300% (taxpayers hate you)

The Smarter Fix: Oil-Based PU Grout Lining

Robotic crews now rehab pipes from the inside:

1. Camera inspection finds leaks

2. Special nozzles spray PU grout

3. Instant structural liner forms

Why Cities Love It:

• 60% cheaper than replacement

• 50+ year lifespan (vs 15 for new pipes)

• Zero surface disruption - no digging, no traffic nightmares

Case Study: Chicago's $200M Save

When 12 miles of 1920s-era sewer lines started collapsing:
→ Used PU grout lining instead of replacement
→ Finished 2 years ahead of schedule
→ Saved taxpayers $200 million
→ Won an engineering excellence award

"We fixed pipes under downtown without closing a single Starbucks."

The Future of Infrastructure Repair

Stop digging. Start injecting.
