HDPE welding inspection
TechnoCampus has been asking Sirris to certify high-density polyethylene (HDPE) welders for many years. Sirris assesses the quality of the polyethylene welds as required to achieve accreditation to weld gas pipes. Every welder must have completed the training course and must hold a valid welding permit, for which they are required to pass an annual exam. The assessment of the welds and the process to produce them contributes towards error prevention.
Training centres such as TechnoCampus organise this course on a yearly basis and entrust the welded connections made to an independent, BELAC-accredited laboratory, such as the Sirris testing labs. The welds are subjected to a number of tests. Every year, approximately 1,600 tests on about 400 welded parts are carried out at the Sirris testing lab in Seraing.
Having worked together for several years, TechnoCampus knows well that this lab attaches great importance to responsiveness, professionalism and quality.
