Wavin soil & waste solutions
When it comes to commercial and multi-residential construction; risk, cost and complexity all increase along with the physical scale of the build. It’s in these large commercial projects that contractors and specifiers profit from the product benefits in the design, function, installation, efficiency and performance of a system.
Wavin soil & waste and plumbing systems have been scaled to meet these challenges. Designed to speed up installation, reduce noise and guarantee performance thereby reducing risk and efficiently managing water and waste from roof to ground, the portfolio, which includes AS+ Low Noise soil, HDPE Soil, Compact Soil and Grey PVC-U Soil systems, also offers end to end support including application suggestion and BIM packages.
A system of choice for projects in Dublin and Galway
The Wavin Grey PVC-U Soil range was the system of choice on recent commercial projects in Galway and Dublin. Brickfield Square in Dublin 12, is a multi-use, state of the art community residential development which runs across four blocks ranging between four and ten stories. While the Crown Square Hotel in Galway City, is a 177-bedroom hotel built to Lean Construction Philosophy.
The quality of Wavin systems with third party certification, reliability of supply, along with technical support were key factors in the system selection for the M&E contractors.
Wavin Grey PVC-U Soil delivers a wide range of pipes and fittings in 82, 110 and 160mm sizes including brackets, bends, junctions, access fittings, terminations. Pipes are manufactured with Wavin Recycore technology incorporating over 50% recycled content to provide a sustainable solution.

To aid installation, fittings feature a unique keyway which mitigates risk by ‘locking-in’ a 2.5° fall on waste pipes to ensure soil stack joints comply with EN 12056.
In addition, innovative captive seals, co-moulded to the cap of couplers cannot be dislodged in installation. Specialist fittings such as the six-way compact manifold option gives maximum flexibility for waste connections.
“Architects, engineers and contractors select Wavin product systems for numerous reasons; our project focused philosophy and the guaranteed quality and solutions driven emphasis we place on our systems. But it’s more than that, it’s also the reliable technical know-how of our team and the on-site advice available to specifiers and installers that delivers additional peace of mind on these large scale developments.”
