HammerHead Trenchless Bluelight LED
The Bluelight LED CIPP lining system for laterals and small drainpipes from HammerHead Trenchless uses a specially formulated resin that only cures under light in the “blue” wavelength, giving installers a significantly longer working time between liner wet-out and curing. Once installed, the automated curing system pulls the LED light head through the liner, curing the resin almost instantly — up to five times faster than other methods. Instead of waiting hours for the liner to cure, a 50-foot sewer line could be fully cured in under 10 minutes. 800-331-6653; www.hammerheadtrenchless.com
Pipeline Renewal Technologies SpeedyLight+
SpeedyLight+ from Pipeline Renewal Technologies uses UV light to cure felt or GFRP liner for trenchless rehab of 2- to 24-inch pipes.

Resins used with LED UV cure are free of styrene and amines (and the odor) so projects are much less disruptive to communities and businesses. There are no working time considerations, liner can be wet-out remotely further saving time at the job site. The contractor simply turns the light on and off any time to stop or start the cure. The system has a 328-foot reach and produces thinner and stronger installations than steam, hot water or non-LED UV systems. 866-936-8476; www.pipelinert.com
