There are more than five ways that Champion Fiberglass can save you money on your next project – a quick click through our website’s Resources section highlights many of them. But we’ve put together a “Top 5” list that showcases the real numbers around Champion Fiberglass and savings. Fiberglass conduit has been steadily improving in […]
Three more ways to save on your next project. Recently, our XW Conduit line was UL Listed for extended support spacing distances. Now, that UL Listing has grown to include expanded support spacing distances for our Standard, Medium, and Heavy Wall fiberglass conduit. Our infographic shows exactly how the newly extended support spacing distances stack […]
Five years ago, “Who’s using fiberglass conduit?” was a common question. Today, if you’re anywhere near a bridge, tunnel, wastewater treatment plant or data center, there’s a good chance you’re near fiberglass conduit, a.k.a. RTRC. However, there’s still some mystery around why so many industries are choosing fiberglass over other conduit materials like PVC-coated steel […]
Trenchless applications offer many opportunities to develop around existing infrastructure and buried networks. The complex nature of these applications also present greater challenges, which can lead to project failure if not mitigated correctly. Risks should be considered on a project-by-project basis, and evaluated at every step of the procedure. A proactive approach is key in […]
Julio getting some “hands-on” education on the factory floor. Last month, Champion Fiberglass said goodbye to Julio Soto, one of our two summer interns. Soto is returning to his senior year at Rice University where he’ll finish his degree in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering (CHBE) with a minor in Computational and Applied Mathematics (CAAM). […]
Jacob getting a close-up look on the Champion Fiberglass floor. Summer break may be over – but as we all know, there are at least three more months of warm weather ahead for Houstonians. But school will soon be back in session, which means Champion Fiberglass is saying goodbye to another of our summer […]
They may only be with Champion for the summer, but both of our interns have already spent years studying what it takes to move our industry forward. We talked to them about how they see their futures in the engineering field, and how they plan to use their Champion Fiberglass experience in their future careers. […]
Steel and fiberglass have different properties. “Tell me something I don’t know,” you’re thinking, right? But fiberglass conduit is no longer the new kid on the block – and its uses have changed dramatically in the last 20 – even 10 – years. So yes, PVC-coated steel conduit and fiberglass conduit have different properties, but […]
When it comes to material cost, lightness and ease of use, Champion Fiberglass has always been way ahead of other options. This infographic shows how UL-listed increased support spans put us on par with PVC-coated steel and GRC.
See How Fiberglass Conduit Compares to the Weights of Other Conduit Types To be competitive on electrical engineering projects, most contractors know the lighter the conduit, the faster and safer the installation process. So when a project requires a light-weight electrical conduit—Champion Fiberglass conduit delivers astonishing results. Just take a look at the conduit weight […]
