Nutrien Water Nerang, in partnership with experienced golf industry subcontractor Prolinks, was commissioned to deliver the project at Sanctuary Cove Golf Club on the Gold Coast.
After careful assessment, the team recommended a polyethylene (PE) pipe system paired with Plasson fittings, selected for their durability, efficiency, and suitability for large-scale golf course installations.
Ground Movement Tolerance
The material characteristics of PE systems can accommodate the ground movements that can damage a PVC system.
Recycled Materials
Excess PE pipe and offcuts were ground down and recycled by Nutrien Water Nerang as pit bases, reducing waste and providing a cleaner finished installation.
Long Term Solution
Plasson’s electrofusion and spigot fittings have an expected service lifetime of over 100 years. No metal parts or bolts means no corrosion, seizing or anti-freeze treatments.
