DUBAI- ArabPlast is the largest and most established trade fair for plastic and rubber industry in the Middle East. This is an excellent place for the manufacture companies to exchange their ideas and experience in new technologies. Overall, 900 international firms from 41 countries across the world exhibited various kinds of plastics, rubber and petrochemical industries at this prestigious exhibition.

One of the 900 firms is Krah AG - the world´s leading suppliers of plastic pipe production technology. Our exhibition stand caught many visitors attention which they stop by and become interested in the KRAH pipe production technology. Our competent Krah AG members, Mr Bülent Kuzkaya and Mr Mohammed Al Hashani, provide the visitors excellent service, for instance by describing the newest products of Krah AG and the efficient way of pipe production. Because Krah AG is renowned for production of large diameter pipes, many visitors became curious about those fascination production machines. As a result, machines for pipe production till DN4000, welding equipments and machines for manhole fabrication are requested. Especially many visitors are interest in the KRAH Comtruder® Technology for gravity and pressure pipe production. The KRAH Comtruder® Technology provide the possibility of direct compounding process for adding Glass Fibers and Calciumcarbonat as well as normal extrusion process of High Density Polyethylene or High Stiffness Polypropylene (e.g. BorECO BA212E)!

Part 1: The Idea

The country Azerbaijan is located between the Caspian Sea and the Caucasus. Azerbaijan was part of the Sowjet Union until it has become independent in the year 1991. It is adjoining to Russia in the North, to Georgia in the North-West, to Iran in the South and to Armenia in the West. Further it has a common border with Turkey through the autonomous republic Nachitschewan. The capitol “Baku” is an important harbor city at the Caspian Sea. The total area of the country is 86.600 square kilometers. The national economy is still growing fast, Aserbaijan is rich in mineral sources, especially in oil and gas, but it has also a high agricultural potential.
Only by need of renovation and repair of the infrastructure the further growing of the prosperous economy is limited.

1. Problems in existing sewage pipe lines

The Krah Pipe System has been designed to solve the major pipe failures in existing pipelines. According to a German study made by ATV the failures were divided into several sub-failures. But always the result was infiltration and exfiltration and the maintenance /repair costs are very high. As follows you will see here some photos of failures would NOT have happened, if the system was done with Krah-Pipes.
