Hartman Products, LP was founded in 2001 with an idea that would make installing endwalls/headwalls at the end of your culvert pipe easy for everybody. The stormwater industry was moving more towards HDPE plastic pipe because it was lightweight and easy to install. Bruce Hartman, the founder of Hartman Products, LP, had done a lot of drainage work over the years and with the move towards plastic in the industry, thought why not use the same concept for a stay-in-place form for the headwalls/endwalls at the end of the drainage pipe? After securing some investment thru local angel investors, the local Small Business Development Center helped him develop some stay-in-place forms made of LLDPE plastic, that look like a hand laid stone wall. Hartman Products, LP contracted with a major U.S. rotational molder to make the product for them and they continue to manufacture the product only in the U.S.A. today. The next steps were to get the industry to accept this new concept and approve our product's use throughout the country. The HartmanEW System for headwalls/endwalls has been installed on thousands of projects across the US as well as in Canada since 2001 and the product has been approved by 8 State DOT Agencies for use as well as multiple counties, cities, and townships. It is exceptionally durable and has survived thru major disasters such as Hurricane Katrina. The installer can simply lift the plastic stay-in-place form in to place at the end of the culvert pipe by their self (it only weighs 42lbs.), then the form is filled with any material to give it weight, including concrete, sand, stone, or just plain dirt, and then put the lid on and secure it down with stainless steel or galvanized screws. It is that easy and that quick, so try it, and you will never do it any other way!
