The training encompasses everything from equipment installation and maintenance to advanced operational techniques. This dual-purpose training offering will provide an invaluable opportunity for in-house engineers to get hands-on experience in navigating the complexities of modern water treatment before setting foot on our customers’ sites. Simultaneously, it will train customer engineers, fostering collaboration and facilitating the co-development of specialised treatments and tailored solutions to meet their businesses’ individual and evolving needs in the health domain.

“The life science industries are vital for creating a healthier world, but our customers are facing growing challenges”, explains Anne Le Guennec, Senior Executive Vice President, Water Technologies. “We must mitigate resource security issues intensified by rising demand, ensuring performance and sustainability without compromise. The Life Science Centre of Excellence is pivotal as we enhance our leadership across Europe and the USA as part of our strategic plan GreenUp. We have the technologies to help our customers achieve their goals, but the Centre of Excellence is adding the key ingredient, the thing that offers our customers peace of mind: our expertise.”

The principle of performance and sustainability without compromise is instrumental in the facility. It has integrated water recycling, reuse and recovery which increases the operational efficiency of the site’s day-to-day operation while concurrently reducing its environmental impact. The site also prioritises various other sustainable best practices such as implementing solar energy, EV chargers and sedum roofs.
