The world of trenchless construction is a risky business that risk shouldn’t be compounded by assuming that all pipe products are created equal. Northwest Pipe Company has been the nation’s leading manufacturer of steel engineered water transmission pipe for over 50 years. As Northwest Pipe has continued to expand their reach and product offerings with other industry leaders, an exciting new resource has developed along the way. Northwest Pipe Trenchless, the trenchless solutions provider.

Northwest Pipe entered the trenchless construction segment in 2014 with the acquisition of Permalok® Corporation, the recognized leader in mechanical press-fit connections for steel pipe. In that time, Permalok® has grown while providing the same great products and service that contractors have become accustomed to. The synergy offered through this combination of two market leaders allowed for increased national support to contractors, while continuing to push the industry forward with new product development including the patented Permalok® AB and PR joints, bringing pipe technology in line with the standards of increasing installation technology.

In 2020, Northwest Pipe added to their trenchless portfolio with the acquisition of Geneva Pipe and Precast. Recognized as one of the highest quality manufacturers of concrete products in the industry, Geneva brings both reinforced concrete jacking pipe and the Perfect Pipe System, a lined RCP product into the trenchless market providing contractors with multiple solutions to their tunneling operations.

Northwest Pipe Trenchless product offerings range from 8-inch to 156-inch straight seam and spiral weld steel pipes with wall thicknesses of up to 2.5-inches in six proprietary Permalok® joints or plain-end finish, and custom fabrications as required.
