TRIC Tools, Inc. is an infrastructure and environmental solutions company that provides proprietary technology, tools and services for the "non-invasive" rehabilitation and replacement of sewer, water, gas and other difficult to access underground pipes.  TRIC holds four U.S. and International patents for its device and method of trenchless pipe replacement. In 1997, TRIC established the standards and created the industry for lateral replacement (homeowner’s sewer line) using this non invasive procedure. In 2004, the United Nations Environmental Program recognized Trenchless Technologies as an Environmentally Sustainable. Today, TRIC is extending its position in the domestic sewer lateral replacement industry with the introduction of innovative solutions targeted at the U.S. and international sewer, drinking water and gas distribution renewal markets.

TRIC’s method uses a wire rope to pull a steel mole through the old pipe, while at the same time replacing this pipe with High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) pipe.  This new pipe has been used by the oil and gas industry for the past 60 years.  The estimated lifespan of the pipe, once in the ground, is 75 to 200 years.  The pipe is chemically inert and is resistant to movements of the earth, root intrusion and other causes that seem to be problems for terra cotta, steel and cast iron pipe systems.  TRIC’s technology is smallest, lightest, most portable and versatile “pipe-bursting” system on the market.
