Eiffage Metal is a historic player in the nuclear sector. After playing a recognized role in constructing the French nuclear power plants, we were one of the first companies to take part in building the Chinese facilities. Today, we support the construction of the latest generation of power stations. Eiffage Metal designs and builds equipment and specific structures and ensures their maintenance. We also manufacture transport and storage packaging for spent fuel and/or vitrified waste in our Lauterbourg plant.
Eiffage Metal is a leading general steel structures contractor with proven know-how. The Major Industrial Projects sector is structured around 2 fields of activity:
Eiffage Metal has been an essential player in hydromechanical projects since 1945 when we established our base in Le Havre harbour
We apply our skills to building mechanized steel structures in contact with water, including:
Eiffage Metal's Hydraulic structures and moveable bridges division is able to take on all sizes of project including new turnkey project construction and renovation, maintenance and servicing work. We have been working non-stop in harbour zones and on waterways throughout France for over 60 years. Our engineers, executives and project teams have gained solid experience as major interdisciplinary project integrators and managers.
Our Lauterbourg plant (67) on the banks of the Rhine specializes in heavy sheet metal manufacturing and high-tech mechanical welding. Direct access to the river facilitates the delivery of large-scale packages.
Our large-capacity production means enable us to offer a comprehensive service from cutting out to dispatch, including bending, assembly, welding, heat treatment, machining, final assembly and testing.
Welding can be carried out on very thick pieces, up to 300 mm in the case of interpenetrated soldering. Two large-scale boring machines enable parts to be machined on a 14 x 6 m stroke. Corrosion protection is integrated onsite.
When combined with the most demanding quality standards such as those in the nuclear or oil and gas industries, these production tools enable Eiffage Metal to manufacture large-scale products with high added value.
Our production complies with the building codes and standards in force (European standards CODAP and ASME) and our customers’ technical specifications.
Our fields of activity include:
Eiffage Metal's industrial piping projects are among our biggest successes. Many major industrial customers have chosen us as partners on their new works or facility improvement projects.
Our assignments are concentrated in the following fields:
on carbon steel, stainless steel, nickel, duplex steel, and alloy steel networks in compliance with the CODETI, ASME, NF EN and CODAP standards. Our expertise starts at the design study phase, with calculations and prefabrication in the workshop, and carries the project through to the onsite installation stage and commissioning tests. Eiffage Metal can operate rapidly in order to meet customer needs and requirements, and our qualifications guarantee success in the technical, safety, environmental and performance aspects of the project. Our trained, certified, experienced and professionally qualified teams are able to meet all our customer's requests.
We undertake a large number of "partner” contracts with anchor customers such as GRTgaz, Roquette, BASF, Saint Louis Sucre, Bolloré Energy and Tessenderlo Group.
Eiffage Metal has recognized experience in the field of exchangers (condensers, reheaters, dryers, evaporators and coolers) and more generally, pressure vessels. We manufacture all kinds and sizes of tubular heat exchangers for the following industrial sectors:
We control all the processes involved in manufacturing these materials, and ensure their installation and maintenance by our assembly teams.
We have achieved permanent joining qualification in materials such as titanium, stainless steel, copper-aluminium, carbon steel and chromium steel in our laboratories, specialized in exchanger detubing and retubing using specific detubing materials (single or multi-tube hydraulic detubers) and in welding tubes to tube-plate joints (32 identical Tig orbital welding machines)
Our company is polyvalent, numbering many successful projects in the automotive, agri-food and mechanics industries. We also specialize in supplying paint docks for the aeronautics industry:
Eiffage Metal has provided secured bridge cranes and special spreaders for Guiana Space Centre and constructed steel buildings for Ariane 6's future launch pad.
Our Transnuclear® products have been specially designed for spent fuel and are all manufactured in Lauterbourg.
Eiffage Metal manufactures and installs this integrated semi-submersible floating unit solution designed by Principle Power. The floating wind turbine is one of the latest technologies, and can be installed in windy, deep water zones far out to sea.
The polar cranes with equipment hatches designed and built by Eiffage Metal are recognized all over the world for their behaviour in extreme conditions (earthquake, strain, pressure, temperature) and their reliability throughout the nuclear power plant's lifecycle.
Eiffage Metal has built and installed a large number of oil rigs, such as Ofon living quarters in Nigeria for Total. This floating hotel comprising 124 beds and the oilfield's central monitoring and control room was built in Nigeria (helideck, upper module, spider deck and jacket) and Fos-sur-Mer (intermediate and upper modules).
Eiffage Metal's special expertise in designing and building complex steel structures for the aeronautics industry dates from 2011. Our in-depth steel construction knowledge and specialist mechanical departments enable us to offer you top-quality turnkey solutions to suit all budgets and projects, from paint docks to plane maintenance.
There are many Shelter-type products on the market but they are often based on the shipping container and do not offer much latitude in terms of size or adaptability. For several years, Eiffage Metal has been developing a Shelter concept which can be adapted to large dimensions, with a metal framework, cladding and roofing. They are magnetic wave and weatherproof, air-conditioned or heated according to need and designed to resist aggressive conditions (desert or sea, for example). These products, such as electrical houses (e-houses) created for the armaments and oil and gas sectors, are designed and manufactured in our plants, then dispatched all over the world.
Eiffage Metal designed and constructed the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) and mobile gantry for the preparation of the Ariane 6 launch vehicle.
VAB: 1,000 tonnes with watertight doors. Mobile gantry: 5,000 tonnes and 90 m high.
