Innovation is at the heart of Sol Environment’s strategy.

Our innovation approach is action-based and driven by the needs identified on the job site and the technologies controlled by the Sol Environment and Soletanche Bachy engineers. Our innovation is rapidly operational and takes into account job site constraints from the very start.

A doctor dedicated to R&D, several engineer project managers,
The group’s R&D department,
The materials lab in Montereau (77),
A network of technological partners.

Our On-Going Projects

Sol Environment takes part in collaborative R&D projects in the frame of public support programs.
