Tana Drilling & Industries PLC (TDI Pipes) in collaboration with the Ministry of Water and Energy and the Ethiopian Conformity Assessment Enterprise (ECAE) successfully hosted a high-level workshop on water supply pipe infrastructure, technology selection, quality assurance and standards.
The workshop brought together key stakeholders and industry experts to promote quality, reliability, sustainability and long-term value in the Ethiopian water infrastructure sector.
Participants pointed out the need for quality and standardised cooperation between the government, conformity assessment bodies, consultants, industry professionals.
A key takeaway: the true value of a pipe goes beyond its initial cost—it lies in quality, durability, performance and lifetime cost.
At TDI Pipes, we remain committed to advancing Ethiopia’s water infrastructure through quality, innovation and sustainable solutions.
