A new Weholite pump station – one of the largest high-density polyethylene pump stations in North America – meets the existing increase and future sanitary sewer demands in the Montgomery Borough of Pennsylvania, United States.
A U.S. irrigation district with a rich agricultural history has chosen Weholite to ensure that the district’s valuable water supply will conserve every ounce of water intended for use and remain safe and leak-free.
Weholite pipes are light and easy to install. They really come into their own in a project in the harbour of Auckland, the largest city in New Zealand – the extension of an old stormwater line using massivepipes with an internal diameter of 3–3.5 metres. In this busy harbour area, it is not possible to carry outlarge-scale excavation work. The soil of the region and strong tides pose their own challenges.
Uponor was proud for the chance to contribute to such a worthy initiative – a facility dedicated to the care of sick children. Uponor specialists made a point of actively participating early on in the need-assessment and design phases of the project. Their contributions included a range of much-valued municipal engineering and building technology solutions.
A Weholite alkalization plant was installed alongside new groundwater intake facility in Kuhmo, Finland. The system is built in the factory, ready for installation.
The global mineral fertiliser, industrial chemicals and environmental products supplier Yara of Norway renewed the water supply to its factory in Glomfjord, close to the Arctic Circle in the north of Norway, with 1.8 kilometres of PE1,000mm pressure pipe. Extremely demanding terrain, limited infrastructure and the most stringent safety requirements demanded exceptional expertise and planning.

The challenge began in 2021 when the building was completely redesigned to cut energy waste. Uponor Ecomate was installed to gain actionable insights into heating, cooling and power usage and improve the Town Hall's energy consumption and carbon footprint.
