Innovative heating solution

The project aimed to create an efficient and sustainable heating system for a new building. Flexalen 600's flexibility was crucial in the building's unique semi-8-circle design, covering 7800 m². The use of Flexalen 600 ensured rapid deployment, reducing construction time and risks. This environmentally conscious choice resulted in a remarkable annual reduction of 400 tons of CO₂ emissions, highlighting the project's success in operational efficiency and sustainability.

Flexalen 600 with polybutene service pipe

Flexalen 600 flexible pre-insulated pipes offer a single solution for district heating, cooling networks and domestic water supply. They combine high and stable performance with ease and speed of installation, even in difficult conditions. The polybutene services pipes are lightweight, very flexible and thus easy to handle.
