Under Development · Edgewood, New Mexico

Steel pipe for New Mexico water.

A spiral-weld mill in the East Mountains, designed to move water across a dry state — and, in time, the Southwest.

Edgewood, New Mexico

Built for this state first.

New Mexico does not have a shortage of need. It has a shortage of pipe made here, for the distances water has to travel here. NM Pipe is a mill under development in Edgewood — coil-fed, spiral-weld, large diameter — to supply water transmission projects across the state.

About 80% of what we intend to make stays in New Mexico. The rest reaches the Southwest. A founding customer is under contract. We are aligning equity and construction financing to bring the plant online. Anticipate breaking ground before 2030.

This page is for the people who will fund it, permit it, work in it, and drink the water it carries.

On the ground

What this mill is for.

Three frames. Pipe leaving the yard. Work that belongs in a plant. Water moving through the high desert.

Scene 01

Pipe on the move

36-inch steel, fifty-foot joints, headed down a New Mexico highway. This is what the mill is for.

Scene 02

Fittings that hold a line

Tees, elbows, beveled ends — welded in a clean plant, not improvised in a field ditch.

Scene 03

Pipe in the ground

Joints strung in the trench, headed toward the mountains. This is how New Mexico moves water.

What we build

Large-diameter steel water pipe.

The mill is designed around the pipe New Mexico’s transmission projects actually specify — not a catalog of odds and ends.

Diameter

20″ – 84″

Large-diameter water transmission pipe for regional lines — the size New Mexico’s long hauls actually need.

Process

Spiral-weld steel

Coil-fed forming and welding with tight process control. A modern mill — not a dusty old shop.

Protection

Mortar lined · PU coated

Cement-mortar lining inside, polyurethane coating outside, built for long service in desert soils.

Standard

AWWA C-200

Manufactured to the industry standard for steel water pipe used on municipal and regional systems.

Joints

Lengths to ~52 ft

Fewer field joints, faster installs, fewer potential welds — which is how transmission projects save money.

Market

80% New Mexico

First obligation is this state. About 20% of capacity is reserved for the Southwest beyond our borders.

Where the pipe goes

New Mexico at the center.

Edgewood sits on the I-40 spine east of Albuquerque — close to the Middle Rio Grande, close to the East Mountain towns, and on the way to the rest of the state.

The proposed line runs west from Clovis, north to Moriarty, then west through Edgewood to the north side of Albuquerque near Rio Rancho — the class of transmission project this mill is sized for. Read more on Who we serve.

The mill

East Mountains. Under development.

A clean, high-tech plant — coil yard, spiral mill, lining, coating, and a yard built for 50-foot joints. Not a dusty shop. Drawings are in hand. Steel in the ground is still ahead.
