The epoxies we use for the lining of plumbing systems have been tested and certified to meet the ANSI/NSF Standard 61 which is the strictest health standard for products coming in contact with drinking water. Based on this certification, Regional Health Authorities have approved the lining.Epoxy lining processes can also be certified to meet industry-recognized standards. Our lining process is certified to meet IGC-189, which is the standard set by the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO). The codes established by this organization are recognized and adopted by many regional authorities.

Many regional municipalities have been using epoxy lining in their own water mains and reservoirs since the early 1990’s and in water treatment plants since the 1950’s. They value this technology for its ability to preserve water quality and restore and protect easily eroded and corroded surfaces.

Special note: A mechanical engineer with an understanding of epoxies, corrosion and metallurgical experience is your best bet for a detailed evaluation of your existing plumbing system. They can test review and write the specifications for the epoxy lining (upgrading) of your water delivery system.
