Sarplast - Qatar

Sarplast Qatar W.L.L. is the world leading company

in the design, manufacturing and supply of Glass

Fibre Reinforced Plastic (GRP) pipes and fittings

with the Dual Helix Technology.

The Sarplast manufacturing method of fiberglass

pipes is the “Dual Helix Filament Winding”, where

the GRP pipes are manufactured on to a rotating

mandrel in various lengths (usually 12 m).

Diameters are available ranging from ND 20 mm up

to ND 3050 mm, and for operating pressures up to

30 bars. Usage of Epoxy ,vinyl ester & isophtalic

Resin in the winding process makes our pipes

substantially the best in GCC and world market.

Sarplast Qatar W.L.L is associated with the following

shareholders:

-SARPLAST Iniziative Industriali S.p.A.

Headquarters in Italy with more than 35 years of

experience in the design, manufacturing and supply

- Smooth internal bore which remains constant

- Fully corrosion resistant in regard to the conveyed

fluids, aggressive soils and vacant currents

- Several joining options available as Cement

cylindrical Jointing , Tapered Cement also the Bell

& Spigot Lock joint manufactured monolithic to the

pipe.

- Standard pipe lengths is 12 meters, though any

intermediate length is available.

- Light weight that allows an easy installation GRP Fields of Application

- GRP piping systems with large diameters for low

pressure applications as aqueducts, sewers, sea

water intake and discharge.

- GRP piping systems for chemical, petrochemical,

food and power industry.

- GRP piping systems for Pressure applications,

cooling systems and potable water lines.

- Shipbuilding applications and Offshore

installations: Marine Piping System, Seawater,

cargo, flammable liquids, sounding lines.

- GRP piping systems for pressure applications for

civil and industrial sewers, cooling systems and

potable water distribution lines.

- Submarine GRP sea lines including final risers.

- GRP piping systems where high resistance to

abrasion are required as desulphurization plants,

quarry and slurry piping installations.

- GRP piping systems for fire fighting networks

manufactured under the prescription of the Factory

Mutual certification.

- GRP piping systems for deep water wells

manufactured under own internal know-how.

Characteristics of Filament Wound GRP pipes Pipes are formed by adjusting the relative speed of

the mandrel rotation and the movement of the glass

distributor, to achieve the pipe predefined design,

according to the required winding angle. Pipe

properties can be varied by adjusting the proportions

of materials which may also include high purity sand.

Main characteristics are:

Installation Efficiency

Filament wound pipes are available in 12 m lengths

and Installing them guarantees their fast and practical

installation compared to many other systems since the

Bell and Spigot joint makes the pipes assembly and

joining very easy.

The nipple sealing test guarantees the successful

execution of the final hydraulic test that therefore this

may also be avoided.

If the joint is also provided with locking keys, then the

use of thrust or anchor blocks can be reduced

enormously or can even be removed completely.

Fittings

Sarplast can produce in GRP a wide range of fittings

(elbows, flanges, tees reducers, etc. ) and spools

prefabricated that are supplied ready to be installed.

Fittings can be manufactured either by hand lay-up, by

contact molding or by spray-up.

Certifications and Qualifications

Sarplast Qatar is certified by Velosi Quality Mangement

for: ISO 9001 -2008, ISO 14001-2004 & ISO 18001 –

2007.

Sarplast is registred in Qatar with all the main

Organisations and Public comapanies as: Qatar
