Municipal Infrastructure
What is Municipal Infrastructure?
Municipal infrastructure includes utilities, stormwater systems, manholes, and public works facilities that serve cities and communities. These assets require long-term stability and protection against soil loss, infiltration, and settlement to maintain reliable service.
Challenges in Municipal Infrastructure
- Settlement undermining utilities, manholes, and vaults
- Groundwater infiltration weakening stormwater and sewer systems
- Erosion causing soil loss and void formation around structures
- Structural cracking and displacement in public works facilities
- High repair costs and service disruptions from traditional excavation methods
Types of Polymers Used
High-Density Polyurethane Foams
- Expands to fill voids beneath foundations and slabs
- Provides lightweight reinforcement without adding load
- Cures quickly to minimize business interruption
Structural Polyurethane Resins
- Strengthens soils supporting commercial structures
- Provides rigid reinforcement for pavements and parking areas
- Extends the service life of retail and office assets
Hydro-Insensitive Polymers
- Expands and cures in wet or saturated soils
- Blocks groundwater infiltration in below-grade structures
- Maintains performance in challenging site conditions
Benefits of Municipal Infrastructure Solutions
Trenchless stabilization solutions strengthen soils and restore municipal infrastructure without disruptive excavation. Polymer injection prevents infiltration, corrects settlement, and reduces long-term maintenance costs for cities and utilities.
Long-Term Stability for City and Utility Systems
- Stabilizes utilities, manholes, and stormwater systems
- Prevents groundwater infiltration and soil loss
- Provides trenchless repairs with minimal public disruption
- Extends the service life of municipal facilities and assets

How the Process Works
1
Investigation
Utilities and municipal assets inspected for soil loss, voids, or infiltration
2
Planning
Injection design developed based on infrastructure needs and site conditions
3
Access
Small-diameter injection points installed with minimal surface disruption
4
Injection
Expanding polymers stabilize soils, seal leaks, and restore support
5
Monitoring
Performance tracked in real time to ensure full stabilization
6
Validation
Final inspection confirms restored structural performance and water-tightness
