to revive the desert. apilion provides the equipment to produce the necessary conduits by taking care of the complete planning, supply, installation and supervision of turn-key delivered manufacturing plants.
This large scale project was successfully completed in 1995, thus enabling the reclamation of 300,000 hectares of desert. The production of pre-stressed, half-circular concrete flumes with precast substructural elements and concrete pipes could be started in time. The planned output of 17 km per month for concrete flumes of DN 600 to DN 1800 and 2.4 km per month for reinforced concrete pipes were achieved even before the plant had been handed over and the training and instruction of the local staff had been finalised.
When it comes to building, the growth of Thailand is found for the most part on foundation piles, due to geological conditions. Continuing a long tradition of machine supply to Asia since the 1950`s, apilion supplied the main components for two pile plants in Thailand that started production in 1997. Driven concrete piles of diameters from 300 mm up to 800 mm and of lengths between 4 m to 16 m as well as screw piles of diameters 400 mm to 800 mm of lengths up to 28 m are being produced.
