Double containment pipe (also known as double wall pipe or dual containment pipe) is commonly used for handling sensitive materials that may be hazardous or costly if leaks occur. This type of pipe comes in different materials like PVC, CPVC, PVDF and more.
Due to increasing environmental concerns surrounding industrial processes, double containment pipe is becoming even more useful in the handling of potentially dangerous substances. The system works by utilizing one carrier pipe that houses the media, and another containment pipe that surrounds the carrier pipe and serves as a safeguard. These systems are useful in wastewater treatment, drainage applications, chemical processing, and any application that would benefit from environmental protections. Available for use above or underground, drain or pressurized use.
Double containment systems are also useful for process piping applications where workers may risk exposure to aggressive chemicals. Some applications are required to use double containment piping due to regulations put in place by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
