As a major player in the field of independent drainage and rainwater recovery (recovery, treatment, storage and distribution), Sotralentz Habitat confirms that it will be taking part in Pollutec Lyons.

"It is essential for us to be present at Pollutec, because these shows are amongst the most effective means of communication. Pollutec is a vital opportunity to forge high-level contacts with relevant visitors and those involved in the sector, whether they be specifiers, project managers or specifiers, from the worlds of business or local authorities or even private individuals.
 
As President of the IFAA and a member of the IFEP, I have been involved at Pollutec over the last two years in organizing expert spaces devoted to particular themes (the Rainwater Management Village in Paris in 2007 and the Independent Drainage Village in Lyons in 2006). In response to the growing success of these, our two associations have decided to join forces in 2008 to organize a solutions and information space dedicated to these two themes."
