'The Villages' is the largest privately held development in the world. Located in Marion and Lake Counties, The Villages is an upscale adult community that brings the small-town feel of the past back to life. With over 3,000 homes planned each year for the next 10 years, construction crews from Hamlet Construction must maintain their deadlines. Hardie Pipe's 16-foot lengths reduce the number of pipes (and joints) to install by 50%. Fewer pipes mean faster installation times for the contractors. The strength and durability of Hardie Pipe enable it to withstand the stresses associated with construction as well. Contractors can be assured that Hardie Pipe will maintain its shape and integrity for the life of the project.

"We have utilized FRCP on several projects here in The Villages. The machined joints with no protruding bell allow for a more uniform compaction of the soil under a roadway or a parking lot. The 16-foot lengths of Hardie Pipe have also been a hit with our contractors." - Ed Abshier, Project Manager, Grant & Dzuro.
