Quality
Ocean Pipe products are manufactured to the high
quality standards set by CSA, ASTM, and local government
agencies. Ocean Pipe is a certified Q-Cast facility and has
held the distinction since 1999. As the first Canadian plant
to achieve "Q-Cast" certification—the
stringent plant quality certification issued by the American
Concrete Pipe Association (ACPA)—Ocean Pipe is amongst the
industry leaders in product quality.
The Q-Cast program is a voluntary audit process
where an independent engineering firm performs inspections on 146
different areas of the plant. Some of the highlights of the
audit include:
-
Materials

-
Finished
product inspection
-
Performance
testing
-
Product

-
Handling
and storage inspection
-

Owners
and specifiers should insist on pipe products manufactured in a Q-Cast
certified plant for their next project.
