Do It Right Once
Temporary fixes like spray-ons and coatings protect a surface for a short time. Real rehabilitation requires the Triplex Liner: the structure gets its strength and its corrosion protection back in one operation.
That is why cities that have tried both specify the liner. It turns a maintenance cycle into a finished repair.
America's Underground Infrastructure Is Falling Apart
Every city runs on infrastructure nobody sees: manholes, lift stations, wet wells. Sewer gas eats the concrete, and years of corrosion end in leaks and lost strength. Cities have spent decades paying for temporary fixes to a permanent problem.
The Triplex Liner System Is the Permanent Fix
The Triplex Liner is not a coating. It is a new structural wall of fiberglass and a continuous corrosion barrier, cured in place inside the existing structure. The structure gets its strength back and keeps it.
The system has been patented, proven in service, and designed and tested to last up to 100 years in sewer conditions.
It is installed in cities across the United States, Canada and Australia.
How It’s Done
Every liner is measured against the structure it will repair and custom built at our factory. On site, the work moves fast: the structure is prepped, the liner is cured in place, and the structure returns to service. For a typical manhole, installation is completed in a single day.
Engineers can request the full specification package. The disruption a city fears from rehabilitation is the part we engineered out.
Measured and Built
Every liner starts at our factory in Northwest Florida, custom built to the measurements of the structure it will repair, in two pieces: the shaft and the bottom disc.
Prepped and Installed
On site, the structure is cleaned back to sound wall. The crew saturates the liner, lowers it in, presses it into full contact with the structure, and cures it in place with steam and air.
Back in Service
The inlets and outlets are cut and reopened, and the structure returns to service with a new structural wall inside the old one. Installation for a typical manhole is completed the same day.
Built for the Toughest Jobs
Deep, in freezing temperatures, in the middle of Edmonton, Alberta. Some structures are critical to a city's health and nearly impossible to take offline: deep, downtown, on streets that cannot close. That is the work this system was built for. The liner goes in through the opening that is already there, one piece, built for that structure, and the street is back the same day.
Working in Oklahoma
We work with Oklahoma municipalities, utility districts and consulting engineers on manhole, lift station and wet well rehabilitation. If rehabilitation is in your capital plan, we can help scope and specify it.
Triplex Liners in Oklahoma
There is Triplex Liner work in Oklahoma, in Oklahoma City, in 2008. Every liner was made at our plant in Northwest Florida, built to the measurements of the structure it was going into, and cured in place inside it.

Where We Take Projects in Oklahoma
We take projects across the state. Tulsa, Norman, Broken Arrow, Lawton, Edmond, Moore, Midwest City, Enid, Stillwater and Muskogee, and the districts and authorities between them.
What Oklahoma Asks of a Sewer
Oklahoma is one of the tightest states in the country on leakage. The construction standards allow 10 gallons per inch of pipe diameter per mile per day, inward or outward, on all gravity lines. Most states allow twenty times that.
A test like that is answered by the wall, not by the finish on it. Coatings are applied to what is already there, so they inherit whatever the concrete underneath them has become. The Triplex Liner is a new wall: a structural fiberglass shell and a continuous corrosion barrier, custom made for the structure and cured in place inside it.

Go →Questions We Get in Oklahoma
Is this a coating?
No. It is a structural fiberglass liner fabricated for one structure and cured in place inside it.
What kinds of structures can be lined?
Manholes, lift stations, wet wells, pump stations and culverts, whatever their size or shape.
What does this do to our operations?
Less than most rehabilitation work. A typical manhole is out of service for a single shift and back in service the same day.
We have active infiltration. Is that a problem?
Usually not. Being able to line a structure that is still taking water is one of the reasons the system was developed. Very heavy infiltration, or a structure that has started to fail structurally, needs other measures first.
How long does it last?
The liner is designed and tested to last up to 100 years in sewer conditions. Manholes carry a twenty-year warranty, and lift stations and wet wells carry ten years.
Can we write this into a specification?
Yes. We issue a specification package to the engineer of record on request, with product data, section details and guide specification language.
