Corrosion resistance
Relevant where corrosion is a major challenge for metallic piping.
Low weight
Low weight can simplify transport, lifting, handling and installation.
Chemical resistance
Materials and resin are selected for the application and medium. Suitability is assessed for the operating conditions.
Long service life
Composite systems are developed for demanding operating environments.
Hydraulic properties
A smooth internal surface can provide favourable flow conditions.
Complete systems
Pipes, fittings, flanges, joints and other components can form complete piping systems.

Pipe systems for demanding applications
Water, wastewater and power generation
Piping for transfer, treatment and cooling. Routing, above-ground or buried installation and operating conditions guide system selection.
Process and chemical industries
Process and utility piping where medium, resin and exposure must be assessed together.
Offshore, oil and gas, and marine applications
Systems for demanding installations where corrosion, weight and available space influence material selection and routing. Requirements for each piping duty are clarified within the project.
Heat from the bedrock
GRE pipes for geothermal wells
Glassfiber Produkter supplies glass reinforced epoxy (GRE) pipes from Future Pipe Industries for deep geothermal wells. We assist with product selection and technical documentation tailored to your project.
Why choose GRE?
- Corrosion resistance: GRE does not rust like carbon steel and can reduce corrosion-related maintenance.
- High strength and low weight: A favourable strength-to-weight ratio can simplify transport, lifting and handling.
- Smooth internal surface: Provides low friction and low pressure drop within the pipe.
- Low thermal conductivity: Compared with steel, GRE can limit unwanted heat transfer between the hot central pipe and the cooler water outside it.
How the heat is recovered
In a coaxial well, cooler water flows down the annulus outside the GRE pipe and is heated by the surrounding bedrock. The hot water returns to the surface through the central GRE pipe.
At the surface, heat is transferred through a heat exchanger and, where needed, a heat pump. The building heating circuit remains separate from the well circuit.
Potential applications include schools, swimming facilities, commercial buildings, district and local heating networks, and industrial facilities with suitable heat demand.
Pipes and connections selected for the well
Threaded joints and couplings allow the pipes to be installed in sections. Pipe type, dimensions and connections are selected according to well depth, geometry, temperature, fluid chemistry and loads.
Pressure conditions, suspension and installation method must be assessed together. Capacity and suitability are documented for each project.
