Water supply

We offer engineering services for water extraction, treatment, transport, storage and distribution. The main focus of these services is to achieve the “perfect water supply system” according to technical and financial criteria, tailored to local or regional conditions. We plan and implement an infrastructure and include it as part of the general context involving sustainability issues. Setting high requirements in terms of drinking water quality and treatment targets, which have been extended for some time in order to eliminate micropollutants, requires effective and efficient process engineering methods.

In the industrial sector, industrial water systems with their requirements specific to each industry are also covered by our services.

The irrigation water needs increase with climate change. The construction of irrigation networks ensures agricultural production during periods of drought. Irrigation systems fed from lakes or main rivers ensure the water supply and avoid overexploitation of groundwater or small rivers.
