LOUGHBOROUGH, United Kingdom--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aqualiner Limited, a company commercialising a unique next generation trenchless pipelining technology for the water and sewerage markets, announces that its new water pipe lining product Rembrandt(TM) has received NSF/ANSI Standard 61 certification from the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF). This certification means the Rembrandt product meets the rigid standards required for products used in drinking water system components in the U.S. water infrastructure. This includes protecting against leaching or migrating of contaminants into the drinking water supply. Aqualiner is authorised to use the NSF Certification Mark in conjunction with marketing Rembrandt to the water industry. The Rembrandt product is a trenchless method for structurally rehabilitating underground pipes, including water mains. It can be installed with less disruption and at a substantially lower cost than conventional pipe replacement. Aqualiner's water pipe lining allows for the possibility of rapid, same-day return to water service to urban and suburban neighbourhoods. Commenting, Dec Downey, Chairman of the Company, stated, "We are very excited about the news of our NSF certification. This is a major step in our effort to launch Aqualiner into the new large worldwide rehabilitation market for drinking water. There are still some challenges ahead before we can claim commercial success but now, thanks to this certification, we have the opportunity to expand the marketing of our pipe rehabilitation product to the U.S. water industry. Our product now offers U.S. utilities and municipalities an economic, sustainable solution for drinking water infrastructure rehabilitation."
