ISCO Joins Pipeline Elevate-RT™ Certified Solutions Network

Collaboration brings together advanced PE-RT material technology, domestic pipe manufacturing and ISCO’s application expertise, engineering support and field capabilities.

Louisville, Ky. (October, 2026) — ISCO Industries (ISCO) has joined the Pipeline Elevate-RT™ Certified Solutions Network, supporting the introduction and growth of a new high-temperature polyethylene piping system for demanding infrastructure applications.

Pipeline Elevate-RT™ (PE-RT) is a single-wall high-temperature polyethylene pipe manufactured by Pipeline Plastics using Dow INTREPID™ 2499 PE-RT resin. The system expands the use of fused polyethylene piping into applications where higher operating temperatures, corrosion resistance, joint integrity and installation requirements are important design considerations.

As a member of the Certified Solutions Network, ISCO will provide Pipeline Elevate-RT™ pipe along with application expertise, engineering and specification support, fusion equipment, training and field support from design through installation.

The system is being developed for a growing range of applications, including data centers, district energy, geothermal, industrial and energy infrastructure.

“High-temperature polyethylene has tremendous potential in some of the fastest-growing and most demanding markets we serve,” said Mike Raider, Senior Vice President of Sales at ISCO. “Pipeline Elevate-RT gives engineers, contractors and owners another option when temperature, corrosion, reliability or installation requirements are driving the piping decision. Just as important, we can support the system from early application evaluation through installation in the field.”

Led by Pipeline Plastics, the Pipeline Elevate-RT Certified Solutions Network brings together material technology, pipe manufacturing, fabrication, distribution, training and application-development capabilities to support complete PE-RT piping systems.

For ISCO, the introduction builds on years of polyethylene application development, engineering education and collaboration with owners, engineers and contractors while expanding the company’s capabilities into higher-temperature piping applications.
