Core offering

Aarsleff Rohrsanierung GmbH is a general contractor (Generaldienstleister) providing trenchless (no-dig) pipe and sewer rehabilitation services for municipal and industrial network operators. The company delivers projects across the full value chain — from needs assessment and project planning through on-site execution — using its own proprietary liner systems (PAA-SF-Liner, PAA-G-Liner, F-Liner with LED curing, PA-Schachtliner®) and robotic repair technology, complemented by GRP/GFK products from subsidiary FRP-Prolining GmbH. Operations cover pipe diameters from DN 70 to DN 2000+, including circular, egg-shaped, and box profiles, with a guaranteed minimum 50-year service life.

Product overview

Aarsleff Rohrsanierung is a general contractor specializing in trenchless (no-dig) pipe and sewer rehabilitation. The company operates as a unified service provider offering a comprehensive portfolio of rehabilitation technologies, including Schlauchlining (pipe lining with multiple curing methods: warm water/steam, UV, and LED hardening), Schachtsanierung (manhole/shaft rehabilitation), Großprofilsanierung (large-profile pipe rehabilitation), Anschlusssanierung (connection pipe rehabilitation), and Robotertechnik (robotic repair technology). The core products include the PAA-SF-Liner (synthetic fiber liner), PAA-G-Liner (glass fiber liner), F-Liner (LED-hardening synthetic fiber liner), and PA-Schachtliner (manhole liner). The company produces its own liners at its Competence Center in Geschwenda, Germany, and offers both the products and the installation services as a general contractor.

Products and services

• PAA-SF-Liner (Synthesefaserliner mit Warmhärtung) Synthetic fiber pipe liner cured with hot water or steam for trenchless rehabilitation of sewers and drains. Suitable for nearly all pipe profiles and diameters (DN 200 to DN 2000+), with a guaranteed minimum service life of 50 years. More than 100,000 km of pipe have been rehabilitated worldwide using this technique; Aarsleff alone rehabilitates over 180 km of canal per year with this method.

Part of the company's broad portfolio offering both synthetic and glass fiber technologies. Holds DIBt approval and RAL-Gütezeichen product quality seal.
• F-Liner (LED-Härtung) Synthetic fiber liner that hardens with blue LED light (patented LED light-curing technology developed by Per Aarsleff A/S), designed for use in non-pressurized underground pipes and service connections. Combines the advantages of warm-curing synthetic fiber liners and UV-curing glass fiber liners. Unique in Germany and distributed exclusively by subsidiary Bluelight GmbH.
• PA-Schachtliner® Registered manhole liner system for trenchless rehabilitation of cylindrical shafts (DN 800–1200) and square shafts with up to 3.80 m perimeter. Pre-confectioned at Aarsleff's own Competence Center in Geschwenda.
• Schlauchlining (Pipe Lining Service) Trenchless pipe lining service applicable to nearly all pipe profiles and diameters (DN 200 to DN 2000 mm), using warm water, steam, UV, or LED curing methods. The most commonly used trenchless rehabilitation technology delivered by Aarsleff.
• Schachtsanierung (Manhole Rehabilitation Service) Rehabilitation of manholes and structural elements using PA-Schachtliner, polymer-modified mortar coating, GFK (glass fiber reinforced plastic) elements, crack sealing, and ceramic elements.
• Großprofilsanierung (Large Profile Rehabilitation Service) Rehabilitation of accessible large-diameter wastewater collection channels and structures using prefabricated GFK pipes, GRP assembly plates, or polymer-modified mortar — applicable to egg-shaped, box, and other non-circular profiles.
• Anschlusssanierung (Connection Rehabilitation Service) Rehabilitation of house connection pipes, underground drains, and downpipes using F-Liner LED technology and remote-controlled robotic systems, including renovation of lateral connections from non-accessible main channels for DN 100–150 service lines.
• Robotertechnik (Robotic Pipe Repair Service) Robotic repair services for professional remediation of various pipe damages using KA-TE milling robot, KA-TE putty/spackling robot, KA-TE formwork robot (patent-protected), and Talpa FSR 2060 rehabilitation robot for DN 200–600 pipes.
• GFK Products (FRP-Prolining) Prefabricated glass fiber reinforced plastic (GFK/GRP) profiles, plates, and manholes in various geometries, sizes, and strengths, used in pipe rehabilitation projects. Manufactured by subsidiary FRP-Prolining GmbH at its Neubrandenburg facility.
• Inspektion & Prüfung (Hänsch-Bekatec) Optical inspection, leak and pressure testing, and pipe / sewer cleaning service for channels from DN 50 to DN 2500. Delivered by subsidiary Hänsch-Bekatec GmbH from Beratzhausen and used to support Aarsleff rehabilitation projects.

Direct peers

• Trelleborg AB (Pipe Seals division): Swedish engineering group with a substantial Pipe Seals division supplying rubber and polymer sealing and rehabilitation products for pipe networks - an adjacent but directly competitive product category to Aarsleff's liner systems, with overlap on European municipal customers.
• TRACTO-TECHNIK GmbH: German manufacturer of trenchless technology equipment (Nodig systems, horizontal directional drilling, pipe bursting) - a sister trenchless specialist serving overlapping municipal customers with complementary rather than identical trenchless solutions to Aarsleff's CIPP-based offerings.
• SAERTEX multiCom GmbH: German manufacturer and installer of UV-cured CIPP glass fiber liners for trenchless pipe rehabilitation. Directly competes with Aarsleff's PA-G-Liner offering in the German trenchless rehabilitation market, with overlapping municipal and industrial customers and similar UV-cured technology approach.
• Brandenburger Liner GmbH & Co. KG: German CIPP liner manufacturer and installer operating in the same trenchless sewer rehabilitation market as Aarsleff, with comparable municipal customer base and direct product overlap (synthetic and glass fiber liner systems).
• Per Aarsleff A/S: Danish parent company of Aarsleff Rohrsanierung GmbH. Operates the same trenchless pipe rehabilitation business in Denmark and globally, with shared R&D on the F-Liner LED technology that flows down to the German subsidiary. Direct operational sibling and primary R&D/innovation source.
• Insituform Technologies (Aegion Corporation): US-based originator of the CIPP technology whose process Per Aarsleff originally licensed for European deployment.
