Ecopipe
Environmentally friendly HDPE culvert pipes
Using our Infrapipe™ spiral wound extrusion technology. We can guarantee Ecopipe is one of the strongest engineered culvert pipes on the market manufactured using recycled materials such as post-consumer recycled HDPE.
CULVERTS / FARMING / FORESTRY
Strong & Durable
The stable nature of Polyethylene means it is highly chemical & abrasion resistant.
Long Asset Life
Our large diameter Infrapipes™ have an asset life in excess of 100 years.
100% Recyclable
When the pipe reaches the end of its long life it can be recycled and turned into other products.
Light Weight
Up to 90% lighter than concrete rcrrj pipes and up to 65% lighter than solid wall PE pipes.

Sustainability
Restore, Reuse, Repurpose
Ecopipe is manufactured using recycled materials such as Post-Consumer Recycled HDPE (shampoo bottles and plastic containers etc.), recycled HDPE milk bottles and reprocessed HDPE byproduct from civil pipe manufacturing.
PE products such as Ecopipe are gaining more traction in various industries due to the green effect. The industry is transitioning to sustainable products with a long life span instead of cheap consumable packaging material that creates pollution and is detrimental to the oceans and environment.
Infrapipe is committed to environmental sustainability. Ecopipes’ are made for forestry and farming applications and are one of the many ways we meet our sustainability goals. We ensure Ecopipes’ are manufactured with a large portion of recycled material to fulfil our circular economy objectives.

Installation Guidelines
It is important to install Ecopipe properly as this will guarantee a long service life.
The installation of these pipes is based on a granular backfill like gravel or sand that must be compacted as much as possible. This gives the pipe adequate side support to sustain the soil and vehicle loadings throughout the culvert’s life.
When choosing your Ecopipe culvert pipes, it is important that the correct SN (stiffness) rating is allowed for. See the below Table for the SN Rating versus loads to help make the correct decision.
