Why Hepworth Clay pipe?
Superior Sustainability
Clay is a future-proof material, 100% natural and 100% recyclable.
Superior Quality
Hepworth SuperSleve products are kitemarked to BS EN 295-1, have a CE mark and Declaration of Performance (DoP), and are manufactured under a quality system approved to BS EN ISO 9001.
Superior Jetting Performance
Hepworth Clay SuperSleve pipe has a Lifetime Jetting Guarantee* 7500 psi at a flow rate not exceeding 20 gals/min held static for 5 minutes, providing a 50% higher operating pressure than the WRc requirement for clay pipes.
Superior Strength and Durability
Naturally high product strength enhances in-use performance resulting in a lifetime expectancy of over 100 years.
Superior chemical resistance
Clay is the perfect choice for contaminated brownfield sites as it is unaffected by effluent allowed in an adopted sewer system.
Superior bedding performance
We can advise on the use of recycled aggregate as bedding material for clay drainage reducing costs and environmental impact.
