We are proud to announce that our polymer concrete manholes have been selected for the TELT Project (Lyon–Turin Base Tunnel) – one of the most prestigious and technologically advanced infrastructure projects currently under construction in Europe, and one of the largest tunnel projects in the world.
The TELT Project – A Strategic Connection Between France and Italy
The TELT project is a key element of the new railway connection between France and Italy through the Alps. Its central component is the Mont Cenis Base Tunnel, approximately 57.5 km long, which upon completion will become one of the longest railway tunnels in the world.
The project plays a strategic role in European transportation by enabling a significant shift of freight traffic from road to rail, reducing CO₂ emissions, and improving both the efficiency and safety of transport across the Alps.
A Major Infrastructure Investment for Europe
The implementation of the project spans many years and involves thousands of specialists from across Europe. Once completed, the new railway line will significantly increase transport capacity between France and Italy, shorten passenger travel times, and support European objectives related to sustainable transportation and environmental protection.
Polymer Concrete Manholes Designed for Extreme Operating Conditions
Our polymer concrete manholes are currently being integrated into the tunnel infrastructure and will perform a critical role throughout its operational life. They have been designed to collect mountain water, hazardous substances, and process wastewater that may occur during the operation of the facility.
Such demanding applications require the highest levels of durability, chemical resistance, and long-term reliability. For this reason, polymer concrete is also the ideal material for modern polymer concrete tunnel drainage systems, where safety and performance must be maintained for decades.
Custom-Designed Solutions Developed for the TELT Project
Thanks to our expertise in designing and manufacturing custom polymer concrete components, we have developed solutions precisely tailored to the technical requirements of the TELT project.
Our key advantage lies in our ability to create custom-made products, individually engineered to meet the specific needs of each infrastructure project. In large-scale and technically complex developments, standard solutions are often insufficient and require a dedicated engineering approach.
Engineering Solutions for Modern Infrastructure
Our experience enables us to develop innovative components for major infrastructure projects, water management systems, and polymer concrete tunnel drainage systems, while complying with the highest international standards of quality and safety.
A Testament to SYTEC’s Quality and Reliability
Participation in the TELT project confirms the outstanding quality of our products, our engineering flexibility, and our ability to deliver solutions for some of the world’s most demanding infrastructure developments.
It also demonstrates the trust placed in SYTEC by partners involved in projects of strategic importance for the future of European transportation.
From Standard Products to Fully Customized Solutions
From standard products to highly advanced custom-engineered components, we deliver polymer concrete solutions wherever durability, chemical resistance, reliability, and complete compliance with project requirements are essential.
Our products are used in road, railway, and industrial infrastructure, as well as in modern polymer concrete tunnel drainage systems, helping create safe, efficient, and sustainable infrastructure projects worldwide.
