HOUSTON, Oct. 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The Vortex Companies recently announced the signing of SAK Construction as its latest licensee of the Quadex Lining System (QLS) featuring GeoKrete® geopolymer. The QLS System is designed for the structural rehabilitation of large diameter pipe, culvert, tunnels and other non-round infrastructure. "SAK has a long history and excellent reputation for delivering high quality pipe rehabilitation services," stated Mike Vellano, Vortex Companies CEO. "We are extremely excited to have them on board as a licensee for QLS."

The QLS system is a unique combination of advanced installation equipment and next generation materials, GeoKrete® Geopolymer.
