💪 The Challenge: A pipe manufacturer was looking for an HDPE pipe reinforcement that would meet the burst strength requirements without sacrificing material compatibility or adding installation complexity. 💡 The Solution: Avient's Polystrand™ Continuous Glass Fiber Reinforced Polyethylene Tape wraps directly around HDPE pipe to add the structural reinforcement needed for high-pressure performance. Its polyethylene-based construction offers full compatibility with the host pipe — and at a fraction of the weight of traditional reinforcement materials — streamlining both integration and handling in the field. ✔︎ The Result: Operators were able to achieve higher pressure ratings with a compatible, easy-to-install thermoplastic reinforcement approach — helping reduce complexity while meeting the rigorous demands of oil and gas infrastructure. 🎥👇Watch our video below to learn more - or find additional details here: https://bit.ly/4uD1YI8
