Overview
Our drainage-enhancing water conduit pipe is embedded into infrastructure such as bridges, tunnels, and railway tracks to prevent deterioration caused by water infiltration, including rainwater. By utilizing the capillary phenomenon, it selectively drains infiltrated water while blocking fine particles such as sand, soil, mortar, and concrete. This contributes to extending the service life of structures.
The pipe is gaining attention as an effective waterproofing solution for bridges and tunnels, especially in response to increasingly frequent and intense downpours. It also serves as a reliable method for draining retained and excess water. It has been adopted in major infrastructure projects such as the Metropolitan Inter-City Expressway and the Tokyo Gaikan Expressway.
Additionally, in tunnel construction, the pipe is used to improve concrete quality by removing excess water after pouring.
