Since launching the original Pipe Puller in the UK in 2011, Kobus has led the way for trenchless technologies becoming the first and only technology producer creating products capable of simultaneously removing and laying pipes.
Now, Kobus are proud to partner with Germany’s Perforator GmbH to bring the Kobus Pipe Puller range to the German, Swiss, and Austrian markets. Perforator GmbH was founded in 2002 and will now utilise the Pipe Puller portfolio in their operations.
In March, Kobus Pipe Puller’s business developer Simon Macdonald met with the Managing Director of Perforator, Johann-Christian von Behr, to finalise the agreement. Both company leaders share the same principles in striving for quick trenchless pipeline replacement work.
This partnership adds to a growing number of deals across Europe.
