The safety requirements of the Kamppi-Erottaja-Kruununhaka tunnel built by Helsingin Energia are of the highest level. The contractor Destia selected the former KWH Thermopipe TSC Welding Sleeves for pipe joints. The end result is a pipeline where the insulation and surface material are uniform.
Life is grand for graylings in the pure waters of Ounasjoki River

Life is grand for graylings in the pure waters of Ounasjoki River

Located in Finnish Lapland, on the Ounasjoki River, the village of Kaukonen now treats its wastewater with a new WehoPuts 400 treatment plant. As in many rural areas, long distances make village treatment plants a more sensible alternative than transporting wastewater tens of kilometres to the nearest town.
Don’t count on luck to protect you from flooding

Don’t count on luck to protect you from flooding

With a bit of good luck, a property can overcome rains without flooding, but fewer and fewer count on such luck. As its stormwater solution, a waste power plant to be built in southern Finland chose one-hundred-metre long Weholite tanks.
 

Clean drinking water for 17,000 scouts

Roihu 2016 – the 7th International Finnjamboree organised by Suomen Partiolaiset - Finlands Scouter ry, was held at the Evo campsite in Hämeenlinna on 20–28 July 2016. A camp for 17,100 people was built in a forest area owned by Metsähallitus. Some 3,000 participants arrived from abroad – from about 40 different countries. Uponor delivered 7,600 metres of pipes to the area. The pipes were used to supply clean water and to lead grey water away from the area in a controlled manner.
Weholite limits overflows and pollution in London

Weholite limits overflows and pollution in London

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.

It also includes project management and technical support such as design and calculations, customized products and field service with onsite installation - all coherently coordinated by Uponor Infra Project Services.
Weholite installed in Valdemarsvik Sweden

Weholite installed in Valdemarsvik Sweden

In 1960, the Fifalla River, which flows through Valdemarsvik into the Valdemars Bay, was culverted. At the end of the 19th century, Lundbergs Läderfabrik was built over the last part of the river at the outlet, but in 1960 a culvert came into place, up to the factory under Storgatan for which the Swedish Transport Administration is responsible.
 
Uponor Vault cleans the storm water

Uponor Vault cleans the storm water

As an industrial city and a port on an inlet of the Baltic Sea, Norrköping in southeastern Sweden strives to prevent pollutants from ending up in waterways. In an ongoing pilot project, pollutants carried by stormwater run-offs will be captured a massive, tailor-made Uponor Vault, a stormwater treatment chamber to ensure that the stormwater is purified before it reaches the Ljura Stream and finally the sea.
 
Flow measurement reveals leaks in the water supply network

Flow measurement reveals leaks in the water supply network

The Water Monitoring Services developed by Uponor Infra enable real-time monitoring of water supply networks – deviations in the network can then be detected and located quickly. Pori, a coastal city in southern Finland, started monitoring an area on the periphery of its water supply network where leaks had caused problems over the years.
Water treatment plant

Water treatment plant

Water company Ylä-Savon Vesi Oy needed a solution to improve the water quality in water supply process. The solution was an aeration tank made of Weholite.
Super-sized cooling

Super-sized cooling

About 1 km of Weholite pipes were installed in Philippines as cooling water intake and outfall pipelines for the Petron Bataan Refinery (PBR).  The Project Service team at Uponor Infra offered a turnkey solutions for the project.
A smart retention system for an anti-flooding solution

A smart retention system for an anti-flooding solution

September 2018 saw the launch of the project for a stormwater drainage system in Rzeszów, almost 26 kilometres long, in the residential District of Budziwój, which partially coincides with the floodplain of the River Wisłok. One of the elements of this system is the retention canal. The project, scheduled for delivery by May 2020, will help to finally solve flooding problems which have been plaguing the residents of this region of Poland.

The Ultra Rib 2 Blue pipes were first launched in Sweden – this year, the pipes have already been installed at several locations. In Finland, a pilot installation was carried out in early autumn in the Jalkaranta district of Lahti, a few kilometres from the city centre.
Unique design ensures controlled stormwater drainage

Unique design ensures controlled stormwater drainage

In Slagelse Municipality, there are requirements for the drainage of rainwater and wastewater to be separated, and therefore it was important that the wastewater solution on the street, Nordre Ringgade, was also updated in accordance with current legislation. The client has received an approved solution where the wastewater from the commercial property in no. 59 has been separated from the rainwater. The rainwater is now diverted directly from the 2,500 m2 car park.
Battery of retention tanks

Battery of retention tanks

In Mielec, modern storm water and snowmelt retention systems have been built, which will solve the problems with periodical flooding of streets and buildings in the city centre.
Safe water supply for an old shipyard and sawmill area

Safe water supply for an old shipyard and sawmill area

The Pateniemi waterfront area in Oulu, Northern Finland played a role in the history of Finnish industrialisation. In the mid-19th century, its shipyard built large merchant vessels, and later it was the location of one of the largest sawmills of its time. Now, the waterfront is entering a new era with the completion of a residential area for 2,500 inhabitants. Uponor Barrier PLUS pipes – which are both durable and non-permeable – ensure a safe supply of potable water in this area that was in industrial use for over 100 years.
Reservoir tank for unordinary village of Tuuri

Reservoir tank for unordinary village of Tuuri

In an ordinary village with less than 1,000 residents, a reservoir tank would normally be unnecessary, but Tuuri in Southern Ostrobothnia in Western Finland is not an ordinary village. The village tourist attraction draws visitors up to six million visitors annually. This needs special solution for potable water delivery.
Uponor filter chamber part of the stormwater study

Uponor filter chamber part of the stormwater study

In recent years, stormwater quality management has become an increasingly important part of urban stormwater strategies. A pilot project was launched in Heinola to clean stormwater with innovative filter chambers developed by Uponor. At the same time, valuable research data will be collected on stormwater quality from two different types of areas and on the treatment results achieved with filter chambers.

Espoo's Itäranta is being renovated sustainably

HSY (Helsinki Region Environmental Services HSY) is testing a new kind of area renovation operating model in Itäranta, Espoo, where the aim is to get the area's water supply network in order once and for all. New steps are also being taken towards more sustainable construction: the selected Uponor Blue pipes utilising renewable raw materials will reduce the carbon footprint of pipeline installations by 70% compared to traditional plastic pipes.
Uponor Vortex stormwater solution

Uponor Vortex stormwater solution

The City of Espoo is the first in Finland to introduce the Vortex stormwater separation chamber. It can be used to efficiently separate floating and descending solids from stormwater. The aim is to reduce the maintenance costs of the retention system built from stormwater tunnels and prevent solids from ending up in waterbodies.
Uponor-filterbrønde en del af regnvandsundersøgelsen

Uponor-filterbrønde en del af regnvandsundersøgelsen

I de senere år er kvalitetsstyring af regnvand blevet en stadig vigtigere del af byernes regnvandsstrategier. Et pilotprojekt blev lanceret i Heinola for at rense regnvand med innovative filterbrønde udviklet af Uponor. Samtidig vil der blive indsamlet værdifulde forskningsdata om regnvandskvaliteten fra to forskellige typer områder og om de rensningsresultater, der opnås med filterbrønde.
