Every year, the International Day for Disaster Reduction reminds us of the importance of resilience, adaptation, and preparedness. In times of climate change, extreme weather events, storms, floods, and other natural hazards are unfortunately on the rise.
At ms con-cept GmbH, we are concerned with how our products and services can help make critical infrastructure more resilient. Here are a few thoughts on how the topic of “natural disasters” can be applied to our industry – and what role we can play in this:
🔧 1. Robust planning & material selection
Our pipe systems and components are selected and designed to withstand extreme conditions—e.g., flooding, sediment, corrosion. Through coatings, linings, and appropriately dimensioned wall thicknesses, we help to minimize failures.
💡 2. Protecting critical infrastructure
Drinking water, wastewater, district heating, and energy networks are vital—their failure during natural events can have dramatic consequences. Our deliveries for long-distance water pipelines and our solutions in the field of hydrogen infrastructure are directly aimed at making such systems more resilient.
🔄 3. Sustainability & circular economy
Steel is one of the most recyclable materials. We make sure to use materials optimally and promote recyclability—this helps reduce environmental impact in the long term.
🤝 4. Partnerships & long-term planning
Resilience does not arise on a small scale alone. It requires cooperation along the value chain — from planners, engineers, and local authorities to manufacturers and retailers. At ms con-cept, we see ourselves as part of this ecosystem and want to play an active role in shaping it.
On this day, we remind ourselves that prevention is better than reaction. The challenges are growing — but with good technology, foresight, and cooperation, we can make a difference.
