Flowtite Technology

Flowtite Technology, which is now known as Amiblu Technology AS, is a Norwegian technology company that is owned by Amiblu Holding GmbH. (Originally, the name "Flowtite" referred to both the company itself and the manufacturing process it pioneered. However, after the company was acquired by Amiblu, the company name was changed to Amiblu Technology, while the manufacturing process continues to be known as "Flowtite") The company develops GRP pipe manufacturing technology and designs tailor-made manufacturing equipment under the brand name Flowtite. Its predecessor, Vera Fabrikker, was the first company in the world to utilize a continuous filament winding machine for production of glassfibre-reinforced plastic pipes (GRP pipes) and to invent the corresponding manufacturing process, commonly known as continuous filament winding process or Drostholm process.
