NDDU: One stop-shop for trenchless technology

The 2025 No Dig Down Under Conference, the largest technology event in the Southern Hemisphere, will provide the sector with modern solutions to tackle issues associated with major infrastructure works.

No-Dig Down Under is the southern hemisphere’s only large-scale conference and exhibition dedicated to trenchless technology and it’s set to come back even bigger and better in 2025.

Trenchless technology is important for installing new services, as well as rehabilitating and maintaining existing pipelines and infrastructure, without having to dig multiple trenches, disturbing traffic, business and residential locations.

With major utilities located underground and requiring ongoing upkeep and extension, No-Dig Down Under is a crucial event for local government representatives and those involved in planning decisions for major infrastructure projects.

Trenchless renewal technology provider, Pipe Core, is consistently making waves as an industry leader in this space and is proud to be a gold sponsor for the event.

Pipe Core distributes premium CIPP pipe relining equipment and consumables, including drain cleaning, inspection equipment, as well as cutting-edge UV technologies.

Leading the initiative is Jason Marshall, who joined Pipe Core in 2023 as Chief Executive Officer.

“Our customers range from plumbers and drainers, lining contractors, infrastructure specialists and asset owners,” he says.

“With technology constantly changing, No-Dig Down Under is an efficient way to connect and communicate with the market, allowing us to share what we’re doing and the innovation we are bringing to the industry.”

Marshall says attendees can look forward to the numerous exhibitors discussing their sustainability practices.

“Trenchless technology is an inherently sustainable renewal option,” says Marshall. “Pipe Core will leverage the No-Dig Down Under platform to support these initiatives and highlight its supplier partnerships, where sustainability practices are independently adopted.”

He adds, “Pipe Core’s suppliers align with key sustainability themes such as cutting single-use plastics, minimising energy consumption, reducing carbon emissions, and enhancing social impact, all of which contribute to environmental and social responsibility.”

Marshall says Pipe Core has worked closely with suppliers to ensure best practices across all areas.

“Especially with manufacturers like SAERTEX multiCom GmbH, who offer products with a technical service life of 100 years,” he says.

The No-Dig conference promises to bring attendees the very latest information about products designed to make trenchless installation and rehabilitation easier and more efficient.

A range of training courses on trenchless methods will be presented prior to the conference and will be led by industry leaders from Australia and overseas, providing value to anyone who encounters trenchless technologies as part of their roles.

The technical program invites speakers from around Australia and the globe to present papers covering case studies, new and emerging technologies, challenging projects and environments, industry skills and training, risk management and more.

The training courses and technical program are supported by an exhibition hall extending over 4500 square metres, featuring exhibitors from all sectors of the industry. Finally, three sponsored social functions will be held, including the prestigious Australasian Society for Trenchless Technology (ASTT) Gala Dinner and Awards Evening, providing attendees with networking opportunities in a variety of settings with industry professionals.

Organised in partnership with the ASTT, No-Dig Down Under has grown over the years to become the second largest no-dig technology event in the world and is now considered a ‘must-attend’ for all industry professionals.

The ASTT is the peak body for trenchless technology in Australasia, providing advocacy, leadership, support and educational opportunities for organisations and individuals involved in trenchless technology.

For 30 years, the ASTT has provided members with access to the latest technological advancements, technical information, and educational opportunities through Trenchless Australasia magazine, the No-Dig Down Under conference, as well as providing access to industry tools, technical forums and webinars.

Gold sponsors have already been announced, with Pipe Core, Rob Carr and Vermeer Australia leading the way.

Now you have the opportunity to sponsor or exhibit at the event, which is set to be the largest yet.
