HOBAS Pipe Inc. has announced that the company is nearing the completion of a major capital project at its Houston, TX-based facility. The existing HOBAS site was increased to just under 30 acres of land and an additional 32,000-square-foot building has been added, dedicated to the production of HOBAS' fully structural, Fiberglass Reinforced Polymer Non-Circular Pipe product line.
Structural Non-Circular FRP Pipe has become the go-to solution both internationally and in North America for the rehabilitation of non-circular shapes designed to carry sewer water or stormwater. HOBAS will be the only US-based company producing structural FRP non-circular shapes. The addition of this product line will create more than 25 new jobs once fully operational in 2021.
HOBAS FRP Pipe is manufactured to the highest quality standards and can meet a wide range of applications. A computer-controlled manufacturing process produces consistent, high-quality pipes, that can be custom-shaped in both circular and non-circular sizes. Different pipe shapes and wall thicknesses can be produced and manufactured to meet site-specific design requirements.
HOBAS brings 35 years of water and wastewater industry experience to address new and aging critical infrastructure across North America with cost-effective products and innovative solutions. HOBAS Pipe USA is proud to announce this expansion and to be manufacturing the FRP Non-Circular Pipe product line in the US.
