The long journey of water: from its source, through our homes, and back to nature, clean and safe

The importance of purification


The entire water supply chain represents a virtuous cycle that reduces environmental impact and improves water quality.

 

Before returning the resource to the environment after use, we purify the water through physicochemical and biological processes. 

Thanks to the efficiency of our facilities and the careful management of the entire water cycle, we make a tangible contribution to the quality of bathing waters and the protection of marine ecosystems, making seaside destinations safer and more welcoming for both citizens and tourists.

Every day, we are committed to the responsible management of water resources, transforming what was once considered waste into a resource and restoring value to the environment and communities. 

The tangible result of our daily commitment: clean beaches, healthy seas, protected communities.

Abstraction


Abstraction is the first phase, in which we draw water from the areas we serve using sustainable infrastructure designed to ensure efficient management and safeguarding of the resource.

Adduction


During the adduction phase, we convey water from its sources to the distribution points. Thanks to purification plants, we ensure a safe supply of drinking water.

Distribution


Through rigorous monitoring and analysis processes, we guarantee the distribution of high-quality clean water to citizens, businesses, and communities.


Purification

In the final phase of the water supply chain, we treat wastewater through a multi-phase purification process. With a strong focus on recycling and reuse, we return it to nature in optimal condition, helping safeguard the health of river and marine ecosystems.
