The smarter way to repair and protect your pipes
Across Europe, over 90% of urban pipe renewals now use trenchless technologies like UV relining — and New Zealand is catching up fast. With access constraints, dense infrastructure and rising reinstatement costs, trenchless rehabilitation offers a smarter way forward.
With access constraints, dense infrastructure, and rising reinstatement costs, trenchless rehabilitation offers a smarter way forward. Our method reduces traffic impacts (less traffic management), eliminates open trenching, and enables faster, cleaner project delivery.
What is pipe relining?
Pipe relining is a trenchless method of rehabilitating existing pipelines by installing a new liner within the original pipe.
Depending on the asset, its condition and the project requirements, different lining technologies and installation methods can be used to create a strong, seamless new lining within the existing structure.
Recore provides relining solutions for gravity-flow and pressurised pipelines, including wastewater mains, stormwater drains, pressure mains, manholes and large culverts.
Our pipe lining & relining solutions can:
- Restores the pipe’s integrity
- Improves flow performance
- Prevents leaks, blockages, and root intrusion
- Extends service life by up to 100 years for non-pressured systems and 50 years for pressured systems
- Reduces the need for excavation and surface reinstatement

Our Pipe Lining & Relining Solutions
Recore offers a range of trenchless rehabilitation methods, allowing us to select the right solution for the asset, pipe condition and project requirements.
Pipe Relining
Trenchless rehabilitation of ageing and damaged pipelines to restore structural integrity and extend asset life.
Pressure Relining
Specialist relining solutions for pressurised pipelines, including water mains and other pressure applications.
Inversion Lining
A resin-impregnated liner is inverted into the existing pipeline and cured in place, creating a durable new pipe within the original asset.
UV Relining
Glass-fibre-reinforced liners are installed inside the existing pipe and cured with ultraviolet light to form a strong structural lining.
Manhole Relining
Specialist rehabilitation solutions designed to restore and protect deteriorated manhole structures.
Large Culvert Lining
Trenchless lining solutions for the rehabilitation of ageing and deteriorated large-diameter culverts.
Lateral Joint Relining
Targeted rehabilitation of lateral connections to help prevent infiltration, root intrusion and deterioration at critical pipe junctions.
