Refurb and maintenance

Wherever pipework needs to be concealed, the Vetta pipe boxing and casings range from Encasement can provide the perfect finish to a project, whether it’s a retrofit fire sprinkler, low carbon district heating upgrade or energy efficient heat pump installation.

Versa pre-formed pipe boxing is already installed in countless retrofit fire sprinkler projects to cover pipework in flats, lobbies and corridors, while for applications requiring a flame retardant solution, Versa FR pipe boxing provides an ideal solution.

Typically installed to cover exterior pipework, such as gas supply pipes and low carbon distributed heating system pipes, UK Boxings’ tough metal pipe boxing is also used to conceal pipework and systems associated with ground source or air source heat pumps.

The longer-term environmental impact of the UKs water deficit could cause further damage to the natural 
environment and could restrict future development.  Combining the increasing Per Capital Consumption (PCC) with 
the UKs growing population means that by 2050 the UK water deficit is predicted to be 5000 mega litres per day. 

The industry has been aware of the potential damage lead can do to the environment and health problems, particularly in infants and children for over 50 years.  Houses built before 1970 would have been constructed with lead water supply pipes and in some areas of the UK up to a third of these older properties are still receiving their water through these original lead pipes.1 UK water companies are actively engaged in replacement of these old lead supplies, and many are offering grants to residents.  

Smart meters are seen as a significant part of the solution to reducing domestic water usage.  Thames Water have recorded post installation savings of 12-17%.1 However, existing infrastructure does not provide the best environment for this new technology.

UK Boxings pipe boxing and casings a simple and economic solution for concealing, heating system, boiler, and fire sprinkler pipework while also helping reduce installation time and save money on site.

Arma metal pipe boxing provides a tough and versatile solution that helps protect against the risk of accidental damage or vandalism while also improving aesthetics and adding a uniform finish to the project.
