Building Peru's Future with Hydrauli-Flex and ICE® Equipment

At The Hose Company, we take pride in manufacturing Hydrauli-Flex hoses, which play a crucial role in powering the machinery used in transformative projects worldwide. One such remarkable initiative is the Lima Infrastructure Development Project, led by Constructora M&S S.A.C, a leading construction firm in Peru. This ambitious project is set to redefine the city's foundational support structures, paving the way for sustainable growth and economic stability.

Supporting the Lima Infrastructure Development Project

This monumental project is a collaboration between local authorities and international engineering firms. With a primary focus on enhancing infrastructure while protecting the environment, it involves:

  • Installation of piles for foundational support structures.

  • Extraction of outdated or temporary piles.

  • Construction of retaining walls and barriers to prevent the spread of contaminants.

The project officially broke ground in mid-2023, with completion anticipated by late 2024. The advanced equipment being used includes the ICE® 18EC Water-Cooled Vibratory Driver/Extractor and the ICE® Model 4 Water Pump Unit, rented from the International Construction Equipment, Inc. (ICE®) Sales and Service team. Known for their unmatched reliability, these machines ensure stability and efficiency in every aspect of construction.

Hydrauli-Flex: A Critical Component of Success

While advanced equipment is vital, the project also relies on the exceptional performance of Hydrauli-Flex hoses. These hoses, trusted by ICE® for powering their machinery, undergo rigorous testing to ensure they meet the demands of high-stakes projects like this one:

  1. Burst Testing: Each hose is subjected to its maximum pressure capacity to identify potential weak points and ensure safety and durability.

  2. Flexibility and Endurance Testing: This ensures the hoses maintain performance under various bending and movement conditions, which are common in pile driving and extraction tasks.

  3. Environmental Resistance: Hydrauli-Flex hoses are exposed to extreme temperatures, UV rays, chemicals, and other environmental factors to guarantee reliable performance in harsh conditions.

These stringent tests set Hydrauli-Flex hoses apart, making them the preferred choice for demanding applications worldwide.

ICE® Equipment: Driving Progress in Peru

The ICE® 18EC Vibratory Driver/Extractor and the ICE® Model 4 Water Pump Unit have been indispensable for this project. With their advanced water-cooling systems, they deliver optimal performance, even under Peru's challenging environmental conditions. This ensures minimal disruption to surrounding areas while maintaining the pace and quality of construction.

The water-cooled vibratory driver is particularly effective for pile driving and extraction, thanks to its high vibration isolation and efficient performance. Together with the Model 4 pump, which ensures continuous operation on demanding jobs, this equipment highlights the project's commitment to efficiency, safety, and environmental stewardship.

A Benchmark for Infrastructure Development

The Lima Infrastructure Development Project represents a leap forward in Peru's infrastructure and economic potential. With Constructora M&S S.A.C at the helm and ICE® equipment powered by Hydrauli-Flex hoses, this project is setting new standards in construction excellence.

As the project nears completion, it will deliver lasting benefits to the residents and visitors of Lima. Enhanced connectivity, robust foundational support, and sustainable practices will shape a brighter future for the region.
