The £14M renovation of Hastings Pier use Geberit Mapress and HDPE.
Hasting’s Pier is an iconic landmark, which, until recently, remained derelict for many years and withstood a major fire in 2010. Following a £14m renovation, the newly opened pier now boasts a stylish makeover, maintaining its rich history while bringing its looks and functionality into the 21st century.
Renovation works have included repairing the pier’s Grade II listed substructure, refurbishing its only standing pavilion, the construction of a new visitor centre and a full service restaurant in the one remaining original building.
All gas pipework is Geberit Mapress Stainless Steel, offering a versatile solution that is quick to install. The off-pier waste system utilises Geberit HDPE, made from polyethylene; environmentally friendly and completely recyclable, with no toxic emissions released during its processing or in case of fire, fitting in with one of the redevelopment’s key remits of being sustainable.
Pipework had to be installed underneath the structure, as well as at height, in sometimes cramped and awkward conditions, so Geberit Mapress’ ease and speed, plus the fact there is no need for hot works made it a great alternative to a three inch welded traditional gas pipe. For drainage, Geberit HDPE was chosen.
