TermiPore, an anti-termite reticulation system designed to facilitate long-term building protection, was officially launched in Sri Lanka recently.
The technology is being introduced to the local construction industry by Ceylon Pest Control Ltd., its authorised agent in Sri Lanka.
The launch brought together architects, construction professionals, property developers and pest management industry representatives to explore the system’s engineering, installation process and potential applications in building protection.
TermiPore uses a network of specially engineered microporous pipes installed beneath or around a building’s foundation to distribute termiticide into the surrounding soil, creating a chemical barrier against termites. The system incorporates dedicated access points that allow chemical protection to be renewed without removing finished floor tiles or drilling through the floor slab for this purpose and with no chemical exposure for those inside the building..
Unlike conventional pre-construction termite treatments, which can be difficult to renew once a building is completed, TermiPore is designed to accommodate future re-treatment through an integrated pipe network. This could offer practical benefits for hotels, hospitals, apartment complexes and other properties where minimising disruption is a priority.
A key highlight of the launch was a technical presentation by TermiPore India Founder Pranav Rachh, who outlined the system’s engineering, technical specifications and installation requirements.
International Pest Business Consultant Dr Raja Mahendran said: “In a way it avoids spreading of the termiticide everywhere. Contains it to the most important areas. So, the product; whatever the termiticide, is used in a very effective way, very optimum way, in a more environmentally friendly way.”
TermiPore is an established system rather than a new one: over 10,000 installations completed worldwide, manufacturing certified to ISO 9001:2015, and independent laboratory testing behind the material, with the flow rate of every roll checked before it leaves the factory.
The launch also marked the introduction of the TermiPore Sri Lanka website, www.termipore.lk, its mobile application and social media channels. These platforms provide access to technical specifications, installation guidance and data sheets, as well as information to help identify qualified installers.
As part of the initiative, Ceylon Pest Control introduced its Accredited Applicator Program to train and accredit companies in the installation of the system. Certificates were presented to companies that completed Level 01 of the program at the launch.
The introduction of TermiPore expands the range of termite protection solutions available to the local construction sector, with a focus on integrating future maintenance considerations into building design and construction.
