BIM for Sanitary Installations: Design Faster with Henco
The sanitary installation sector is rapidly digitalizing. Installers, engineering consultancies, and contractors are increasingly working in BIM (Building Information Modeling). What was once an added advantage has now become an essential part of an efficient construction process.
Henco has been supporting this evolution for years with a comprehensive BIM ecosystem for multilayer pipes, fittings, and accessories. Thanks to intelligent BIM tools, MEP engineers can design sanitary installations faster, more accurately, and with fewer errors.
Design Smarter in Less Time
With BIM, you no longer work with simple lines but with intelligent objects that contain product data, dimensions, and technical properties. This offers numerous advantages:
Reduced failure and rework costs
Clash detection before construction begins
Automatic material schedules
Always accurate and up-to-date product information
Henco supports this with an extensive library of BIM objects for Revit and AutoCAD, fully based on existing Henco products.
A Multilayer Pipe That Thinks Along
The Henco multilayer pipe (PE-Xc/AL/PE-Xc) forms the foundation of the system and is fully BIM-ready. During the design process, you automatically work with the correct diameters, bending radii, and connections. When a pipe diameter or configuration is modified, the associated product properties are updated automatically. This ensures that the model remains accurate and consistent at all times.
Intelligent Fittings for Flawless Results
From elbows and tees to manifolds, Henco fittings are fully integrated into the BIM environment. During the design process, the correct components are automatically added, resulting in:
Consistent installations
Accurate bills of materials
A direct link between design and procurement
Work More Efficiently with the Product Line Placer
With the free Henco Product Line Placer for Revit, you can design piping systems up to twice as fast. The tool automates fitting selection, keeps your model up to date, and ensures a smooth workflow from design to installation.
The fact that engineers can design piping systems twice as quickly with this tool makes it one of the most efficient solutions on the market for MEP engineers.
Always Up-to-Date Product Data via MEPcontent
All Henco BIM objects are centrally available through MEPcontent. This gives you access to the latest product information at all times and allows you to start working immediately in Revit or AutoCAD.
Benefits of MEPcontent
One central access point for all Henco BIM objects
Up-to-date and reliable product information
Clear classification of pipes, fittings, and accessories
Fast integration into existing BIM workflows
Why Do MEP Engineers Choose Henco?
