Ukrainian manufacturer of steel pipes and railway products Interpipe announced the expansion of its portfolio of European infrastructure projects by supplying 300 tons of structural pipes for a new road bridge in the German A143 corridor. The new bridge, currently under construction, will cross the Saale River near the city of Halle and form part of a planned bypass designed to improve traffic flow in the region.
The supply includes 219mm diameter structural pipes manufactured to European standards, ensuring durability and compliance with German construction requirements.
Interpipe is no stranger to large construction projects in Europe. The company has previously supplied pipes for a railway bridge in Slovakia and the iconic Izmit Bay suspension bridge in Turkey.
Marcel Schmitz, Interpipe's sales manager for European markets, said: “Germany, as the largest economy in the European Union, depends on reliable transit routes. Most of the local railroad and highway bridges were built more than 40-50 years ago and require extensive renovation or reconstruction. Projects are currently being developed as part of the German government's road reconstruction plan, some of which are led by our key customers in Germany, so we hope to join them with our products."
