Underground Solutions Introduces New Piping Technology

Fusible C900 and Fusible C905 to Revolutionize the Piping Industry

Pittsburgh, Pa. - Underground Solutions, Inc. (Pink Sheets: symbol "UGSI") announced that the Company has developed and introduced two new patent pending product lines trademarked "Fusible C900" and "Fusible C905" which for the first time allow PVC pressure pipes to be connected using the Company's patent-pending butt-fusion techniques resulting in a totally leak-free and gasket-free monolithic pipe suitable for Directional Drilling, Sliplining, Direct Bury and numerous other piping applications. UGSI offers these products in sizes from 4" through 48" suitable for a full range of pressure and non-pressure applications.

Underground Solutions is a leader in the development and implementation of new technology for the underground infrastructure industry.

Mark Smith, CEO of Underground Solutions stated, "Fusible C900 and Fusible C905 are ideal additions to our Duraliner Pipe Rehabilitation System. Not only do they open our market to many different types of piping systems and additional applications but they also allow us to expand our marketing and distribution systems for our entire line of products and services. Fusible C900 and Fusible C905 are positioned to become high volume products which will greatly increase the awareness of the Underground Solutions "brand" throughout the infrastructure industry." Mr. Smith went on to state, "This is consistent with our plan to become the dominant technology player in the multi-billion dollar infrastructure market."

The Duraliner Water Line Replacement System allows municipalities to completely rehabilitate deteriorated underground water lines with minimal excavation resulting in a substantial cost savings over conventional "dig and replace" methods.

Duraliner is a unique patented process for pipeline renewal resulting in a "stand alone" structural lining capable of handling internal minimum operating pressures of 150 psi with a 3.2 safety factor. Duraliner conforms to NSF 61 Standards for Drinking Water Components/Health Effects. In addition, Duraliner provides an equivalent design-life of new PVC pipelines (75 to 100 years) thus qualifying the rehabilitated pipe lines to be capitalized as new assets under the rules of GASB Statement 34.
