International development has always been one of the main areas around which Degrémont has built its growth.
Today the group has a presence in more than 70 countries and has equipped more than 65 capital cities. However, this internationalisation only makes sense if it really enables the group to offer tailored solutions and services to all its customers, wherever they are. This is why Degrémont has always put its faith in organisations really dedicated to each new project, which combine sharing the resources and expertise of the whole group with setting up a network of local contacts. By using this strategy, Degrémont is in a position to ensure the same quality of service all over the world.

The number and diversity of contracts won by Degremont in 2006 demonstrate the quality of the Group’s offering. In our three business lines (design-build, operation and equipment supply) and our four specialities (drinking water, desalination, wastewater and sludge/biosolids), our innovation and the commitment of our teams enables us to provide customers the world over with solutions that are closely tailored to the water treatment challenges they face.
