Eiffage Genie Civil

What Eiffage Genie Civil does

Eiffage Génie Civil is the civil engineering division of Eiffage Group (Euronext Paris: EOFP, joined the CAC 40 index in December 2025), providing turnkey design and construction of complex terrestrial and maritime infrastructure across France, Europe and international markets. Established as a unified subsidiary with its website-bearing entity dated 2015 and headquartered in Vélizy-Villacoublay, the company operates as a multi-brand platform — Demcy for demolition and deconstruction, Eiffage Fondations for deep foundations (since 2014), Forézienne and Roland Tinel for earthworks (with nearly 100 years and 100+ years of operating history respectively), Gauthey for environmental remediation, and Ævia for structural refurbishment — and employs 10,000+ people on a consolidated basis.

The company's technical capabilities span nuclear civil engineering, deep foundations using specialized equipment (hydrofraises for diaphragm walls 500–1,800mm thick to 80m depth, pile drilling rigs of 30–80 tonnes, automated mortar plants, jet grouting units, and tunnel boring machines such as Berthe de Puybusque, Jeanne Marvig and Lise Enjalbert on the Toulouse metro), maritime and offshore works, underground tunneling, slipform construction, demolition, decontamination, and hydraulic engineering. An in-house geotechnical design bureau (BIEP) supports foundation works, and the operating entities collectively hold ISO 9001/14001/45001 plus nuclear-specific accreditations (UTE Génie Civil, ISO 19443, CEFRI-E, CAEAR) that qualify them for restricted infrastructure classes in France.

Revenue is generated through fixed-price competitive tenders (appels d'offres) and direct negotiation with public and institutional clients including EDF (EPR2 Penly contract signed November 2023), Société du Grand Paris, Tisséo, SNCF Réseau, Aix-Marseille-Provence Metropolis, Norwegian Public Roads Administration, Société du Canal de Provence, and port authorities in Benin, Peru and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The November 2023 EPR2 civil works contract alone covers 970,000 m³ of structural concrete, 180,000 tonnes of rebar and 5 million m³ of earthworks, with more than 4,000 Eiffage personnel expected on site, and the company bids either solo or as lead consortium partner with regional agency networks under its earthworks subsidiaries sourcing medium-scale work.
