Backgound of Nuflow

Nuflow Technologies in Australia and New Zealand was started by Ed Ahern. With over 34 years experience in the plumbing and pipeline industry, Ed Ahern has successfully owned and operated almost 20 companies. During this time, Ed has developed extensive experience within the construction plumbing, pipeline and civil drainage sectors.

Ed experimented with an Australian relining system, while using the system he discovered its limitations and set out to find a better system or develop one that was much more versatile. This led him to Nuflow Technologies, a Canadian company claiming to repair damaged pipes, bends, traps and even junctions. Ed was impressed with the technology and negotiated a deal to service the entire South East Asia area.

Our System

The Nuflow system can be installed on bends, junctions, traps, vertical or horizontal pipes all in one application. It can be stopped and started in sections of piping as required. The seamless liner prevents infiltration and exfiltration, restores structural integrity and eliminates joints that can weaken and allow root intrusion and ground waters penetration.  We repair all pipes, from PVC to Earthenware and Copper to Concrete. Diameters from 40mm to 1000mm can be relined using the Nuflow method.

 We have done some amazing repairs over time and have come to learn that nothing is really impossible, take a look at some of our case studies.

Nuflow are the specialists in Lateral Connection Liners (LCL) for any type of junction. The Nuflow pipe reline and repair completely lines the whole junction in one hit.  We can reline any type of pipe, diameter or length combination. From 45 or 90 degrees. The Nuflow process of cure-in-place is the most versatile repair system in the world. Download our LCL brochure.

The Company

Manufacturing: All our products are Australian made. We manufacture all resins and liners and employ many local engineers to help us design some of the unique tools of our niche trade. Our full time manufacturing team is dedicated to speed, efficiency and quality product and delivery to our customers. They pride themselves on their ability to come up with a solution to any problem we throw at them.

In 2007, our manufacturing operation received certification to AS/NZ 9001:2000 Quality Management Systems. We have since had several independent audits, and passed each one comfortably.

Relining: Apart from the standard requirements of local businesses and residents with cracked pipes, the main goal of our Relining crews is to learn, report and continue to develop our system. They are a unique group of problem solvers with the ability to look outside the box. Without this ‘on the job’ experience, we wouldn’t be able to provide exceptional training to our licensees, and we wouldn’t come up with the new technologies which allow us to grow as a company.

Our crews carry out all investigations utilising the latest technologies in pipe camera investigations and high pressure jet cleaning.

Licensed Installers: Nuflow Technologies has expanded organically; a network of many family-owned and operated businesses that have come together through the same vision - that ‘there must be a better way’ than to excavate. Every Installer undergoes extensive training, and twice a year come together to share insights on the latest techniques and ideas.  Find your local licensed installer.
