Société de Maintenance et de Tuyauterie
The French composite Reference since 1974

Manufacturing & Erection

Since 1974, SMT has been manufacturing and supplying piping networks and structural elements in composite material to the energy, oil and chemical, offshore, district heating and marine industries, as well as to project managers, design offices, local authorities and industrial companies, throughout France.

We are NOV distributor for Bondstrand® fibreglass‑reinforced epoxy pipes and fittings and STRONGWELL distributor for FRP gratings, guardrails and ladders. We also have our own Epocal® trademark for factory‑pre‑insulated pipes for heating and air‑conditioning networks.
We set up a design department and an erection service skilled in GRE (glass reinforced Epoxy resin) piping to offer to our customers turnkey solutions.

SMT has no less than 25 employees and more than 950 erection projects in France that enabled our customers to produce plentiful energy safely while minimizing its environmental impact.

Advantages of composite
and carbon footprint

Composite exceeds expectations in terms of weight savings and corrosion resistance. It also offers very low pressure losses, simplified expansion processing, better storage, less heat loss and an erection that is almost twice as fast as steel pipes.

It is also, above all, the ecological choice with a better carbon footprint due to the fact that 80% less energy is needed to manufacture our pipes, the ease of flow reduces the required pumping energy by half, and the carbon sink effect.

GRE Piping Systems "The Green Choice”
A pipe comparison study - Allen Chiu, Rocky Friedrich

GRE piping (Glass Reinforced Epoxy) meets the challenge of environmental performance compared to Carbon Steel (CS) pipe owe to its low energy requirements for manufacturing and its better operating efficiency. Facing the issue of "Global Warming", use of GRE pipe, compared to AC one, emits much less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and thus becomes an eco‑responsible choice!

They trust us

Our commitments in 3 key points

The safety of our systems. We only use robust and environmentally friendly materials. Distributor of Bondstrand® pipes and fittings made of glass reinforced epoxy resin, Epocal^® and Epobat^® trademarks, fire resistance approvals for materials that can be erected even in residential buildings.

Our customers talk about SMT experience

I have worked with SMT for many years. Always attentive to our needs to provide us with necessary material while maintaining their delivery time.

Arnaud - Arcelor Mital

We have been working with SMT for many years and we appreciate the responsiveness of their technical staff and their anticipation in achieving goals which were set out.

Director of the ZAC des Docks Project in Saint‑Ouen (Paris) - CPCU

After having achieved a first project in 1998 with SMT, I was called to work with them again in 2020. The project went very well again. Despite some changes in the layout, we were able to start up the boiler room again in mid‑October as planned with our customer.

Rémy - Equans

We have been working with SMT for many years, and their technology has enabled us to optimize our sites by reducing diameters and by not insulating buried chilled water networks. Thanks to their availability and their large stock in Paris area, we were able to meet our commitments to our customers, despite the encountered changes in the layout during earthwork operations. I would like to thank all SMT employees for their commitment and professionalism one site as well as in the technical and administrative supervision of the projects.

Jean‑Marc - ENGIE SOLUTIONS

SMT products withstand the constraints we faced in Marseille for the expansion of Thassalia network, and more particularly seawater in the subsoil. These products are now in industrial operation for several years without any reliability trouble.

Patrick - Thassalia - ENGIE

In engineering, we rarely buy the raw material. With SMT, we are directly linked to the national supplier of Bondstrand products, all the advice, recommendations, catalogues and necessary contacts for their erection for the networks we design.

Thierry - Sofresid Engineering

SMT in a few words: Professionalism, attentive to the customer, reactivity, able to propose technical solutions. A serious company with which we have been working for several years and whose results always meet our expectations. SMT offers support for our design studies, which is a good thing. SMT proposes suitable products to our operating conditions. The strength of SMT is a very good knowledge of our technical specifications.

Laurent - Total Energies

The company works efficiently to provide quick technical support during the different phases of the project (tender, design, erection etc.).
Moreover, the proposed products and technical solutions meet the needs of several encountered problems and enable us to deliver good GRE quality networks to the great satisfaction of our end customers.

Rodrigue - TECHNIP ENERGIES
