Bæredygtig plastløsning til Femern Belt
Når beboelse til Femern-forbindelsens arbejdersjak skal konstrueres, er der tænkt i bæredygtige plastløsninger til drikke- og spildevand frem for de traditionelle ståltanke

Weholite ensures safe and reliable transportation of stormwater and waste water - and safety is of utmost importance because the newly installed pipelines will run through a water protection area.
As part of the expansion of the Jaworzyna Economic Activity Zone (JSAG) in Jaworzyna Śląska, Uponor Infra supplied large-scale Weholite retention tanks with a total storage capacity exceeding 1,000 m³, providing a reliable stormwater retention system for one of the region’s key infrastructure projects.
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.
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’s Weholite technology was the key solution in a unique project in London, where the Lee Tunnel and Thames Tideway tunnel have the task of capturing an average of 39 million tonnes of sewage a year from the 35 most polluting combined sewer overflows (CSOs). An upgraded pipeline system was designed to reduce the number of overflows – and their environmental impact – from the sewers and treatment systems serving London. A particular aim is to limit pollution from the sewers and treatment systems connected to the Beckton and Crossness sewage treatment works.
