Drinking water supply

The vast majority of drinking water networks in France are over 50 years old. These pipes, mainly made of gray cast iron, have become brittle, increasing the risk of breakage. Faced with the challenges of climate change and the absolute necessity of preserving a

water resource that is becoming increasingly scarce, it’s vital to upgrade and secure the supply and distribution of our water networks with efficient, long-lasting equipment and materials that comply with regulations, including those relating to local economies.

  • Upgraded water networks (renovation, reinforcement)

Water shortages, fire safety, and the quality and reliability of the water supply.


We can assist with all your projects, from simple to complex. To meet your expectations and those of your customers, we offer a wide range of cast-iron, HDPE, and PVC pipes from DN 60 to DN 300.

  • Security and interconnection

Is your local authority planning to secure its drinking water supply?


Thanks to a wide range of references (spring piping, interconnections, etc.), SOVAL has recognized expertise and a range of technically and economically viable solutions to meet your security and interconnection needs (pipes, fittings, all-terrain regulators, innovative materials, etc.).

  • Connections

We have an infinite range of solutions (surface box heads, collars and taps, temporary or permanent repair sleeves, etc.) for the construction of new connections or the repair and operation of existing ones.

  • Drinking water works
