Landfill CASE STUDY – The Cygnet Double Hinged Enclosure

The Cygnet Hinge

“Just the sort of design challenge we love. How to house two 500mm diameter sidewall riser pipes? Cygnet’s Double Hinged Enclosure has proved so popular with both installation contractors and the site operators that it’s become a regular feature on many sites.”

Gary Edwards, Managing Director

Project Scope
To design an enclosure which could house 2 x 500mm diameter sidewall riser pipes for the Landfill industry.
Project Delivery
Working with the contractor at a site in Teesport in 2013, a number of drawbacks were identified with the original concrete bunker design. Cygnet’s technical team developed a proprietary solution which has since been adopted as a standard for the Landfill industry.
Key Elements
  • Avoid the in-situ construction of heavy concrete structures on the perimeter of the engineered clay bunds on new cells
  • Prefabricated HDPE structures are far more effective of protecting these site assets
  • Lightweight, easy to handle and simple to install
