Features
FibronPipe – The next-generation flexible composite pipe for the energy industry
FibronPipe is an advanced Thermoplastic Composite Pipe (TCP) designed with a metal-free reinforcement, making it 100% corrosion-resistant.
This innovative construction ensures long-term durability and reliability in demanding energy applications.
Although the pipe consists of multiple polymer and fiber materials, the entire pipe wall is produced using a bonded structure, ensuring that the polymer liner remains fixed to the reinforcement layer - even under bending or high-pressure conditions. The advanced manufacturing process guarantees full fusion between the liner and the reinforcement tape, providing structural integrity and long-term performance.
FibronPipe is spoolable and supplied on standard-sized drums, optimized for easy handling and transport using conventional truck ramps.
Coils of up to 1,100 meters in length can be produced, with up to four coils loaded on a single standard truck - offering efficient logistics and reduced installation time on site.
Diameter Range 2″ to 6″
DN50 to DN125 (150)
Durable and high-pressure resistant with maximum operating pressures up to 210 bars.
Continuous lengths up to 1100m on drum
Flexible and spoolable
Easy transportation/ low weight per meter
Cost savings by fast installation
Installation
This new onshore piping solution features by significantly faster installation times compared to the use of traditional steel pipes. The weight per meter is significantly lower. The pipe can be coiled up and reused again during its` service life. The use of FibronPipe reduces installation- and maintenance costs substantially.
Flow Capacity
The pipe offers excellent flow performance thanks to its smooth internal surface. The formation of paraffin, wax, and scale is significantly reduced, helping to maintain high flow efficiency over the pipe’s service life.
APPLICATION RANGE
FibronPipe is designed for the transport of water, oil, gas, and hydrocarbons, making it suitable for a wide range of applications -including transportation, injection, disposal, transfer lines, and pipeline rehabilitation. It can be installed either on the surface or in non-linear trenches, offering flexibility across varied terrains and installation conditions.
Materials Testing & Qualification
FibronPipe has implemented a comprehensive validation and testing program to ensure the suitability of all raw materials used in its bonded Thermoplastic Composite Pipe (TCP) systems.
This applies to both the polymer liner materials and the unidirectional fiber-reinforced thermoplastic composite tapes, verifying their performance, durability, and compatibility for long-term use.
FibronPipe’s bonded Thermoplastic Composite Pipes (TCP), also referred to as bonded Reinforced Thermoplastic Pipes (RTP), undergo rigorous industry qualification to ensure they meet the highest standards for performance, reliability, and safety in energy applications. The qualification process includes hydrostatic burst testing, long-term pressure testing, chemical resistance evaluations, and mechanical property assessments—verifying durability under demanding conditions.
In addition, testing for flexibility and impact resistance confirms the pipe’s robustness during installation and operation. These extensive procedures are essential to ensure safe, efficient, and long-term performance in the field.
This high level of qualification builds trust among operators and engineers, encouraging the adoption of bonded TCP/RTP as a reliable, corrosion-free alternative to traditional steel piping. Successfully completing the qualification validates the pipe’s suitability for long-term use while helping to reduce operational risks and lifecycle costs in energy infrastructure.
FibronPipe conducts its own performance and qualification testing programs for unidirectional (UD) fiber tapes to ensure consistent quality and long-term reliability.
Tensile strength tests are carried out on aged samples—such as those conditioned in hot water baths—to assess durability over time under simulated operating conditions.
Our R&D activities include the continuous evaluation and qualification of new fiber rovings with enhanced performance characteristics. FibronPipe defines and controls its own UD tape formulations and specifies the exact types of fiber rovings used—ensuring full material traceability and optimized performance for bonded TCP applications.
Advanced Infrared Temperature Monitoring
FibronPipe uses a network of highly specialized infrared (IR) sensors to achieve precise 360° heat penetration control during manufacturing. This advanced system ensures full bonding and fusion of the reinforcement tape, delivering consistent structural integrity and exceptional product quality—pipe after pipe.
