The year 2020 at the Brixen im Thale and Scheffau mountain railways was all about expansion in order to be fit for the future. In the area of the Brantlalm on the Brixen side, a new storage pond was being built, and Tiroler Rohre GmbH (TRM) was supplying the pond and field pipes to expand the existing network. This project is another example of how quality, sustainability and regional production have gained in importance. The traditional Tyrolean company was supplying almost nine kilometers of PUR Longlife pipelines in various nominal sizes from DN 80 to DN 400 for this project. The field lines were installed by HV Bau, the pond lines were implemented by Stöckl Bau. The planned storage pond Brantlalm with a storage volume of more than 155,700 m³ is to be used by the Brixen i.Th. and half of the Scheffau mountain railway are available. As an annual storage facility, the water supply for basic snowmaking at the beginning of the season should be secured and enough water should be available for repair snowmaking during the season. A natural design of the storage facility was one of the central tasks of the Klenkhart und Partner planning office. In addition, the pond should also have a function as a landscape-shaping element in summer and fit as seamlessly as possible into the alpine pasture area. In addition to the mountain railways Scheffau and Brixen im Thale, the mountain railways Hopfgarten and Ellmau, also members of the Skiwelt Wilder Kaiser - Brixental, invested in the snow reliability of their ski areas and trust in the skills of TRM. In 2020, a total of 16 kilometers of new snow lines could be installed there. In the case of the Brixen im Thale mountain railways project alone, with a pipe length of nine kilometers, this corresponds to a good 45 full truckloads. The customers enjoy the great advantages that they have with the partner TRM. The proximity to the factory guarantees short delivery routes, which in turn shortens delivery times, and if something should be required, fittings can also be picked up on site. In addition, the high service orientation of TRM means that there is an ongoing comparison. On the one hand in the planning phase, in which the offer is created on the basis of a plan, on the other hand also continuously during the project itself, because this way returns or excess deliveries and thus costs can be limited.
Safe water supply.
