Located in the heart of Dublin's Docklands, Coopers Cross is a mixed-use development by Kennedy Wilson covering almost 2.5 hectares. Built by John Sisk, this transformational project of the Docklands Strategic Development Zone combines social, cultural and business activity with urban living.

Valsir Blackfire and HDPE waste water systems and Pexal and Pexal Brass multilayer systems were installed by Dolcain Engineering on the two new apartment blocks of 472 homes, designed by architects O'Mahony Pike and supplied by Kernohan Distribution.

What it shows for a Finnish project

In an apartment project the waste and water systems come from one supplier, and the metal fitting is chosen where it is required. BLACKFIRE is the black three-layer polypropylene waste and rainwater system: below 10 dB(A) at 2 l/s (EN 14366) and fire class B1 (DIN 4102-1), self-extinguishing, without separate insulation. PEXAL is the PE-X/Al/PE-X composite pipe system for potable water with a 50-year service life under the defined conditions of EN ISO 21003; Pexal XL covers mains and riser lines up to Ø 110 mm. PEXAL BRASS is the Pexal composite pipe system with brass press fittings for projects that require a metal fitting; a polymer ring prevents contact between the pipe's aluminium layer and the brass.
