DG SKID hosts Nuclear Valley plenary on industrial equipment design and manufacturing

A key meeting within the French nuclear industry

DG SKID had the pleasure of hosting the Nuclear Valley DAS 1 plenary session dedicated to “Design and Manufacturing of Equipment”, a benchmark cluster for the French nuclear industry.

The event brought together a wide range of industrial stakeholders involved in the engineering, manufacturing, and integration of industrial equipment designed for highly demanding nuclear environments. The objective was clear: share field experience, identify best practices, and strengthen the collective performance of the industry.

In a sector where nuclear safety, quality, and reliability are critical requirements, such exchanges play a key role in enhancing competitiveness and reinforcing the excellence of the French nuclear ecosystem.

Encouraging collaboration across the nuclear industry

The challenges related to nuclear safety, industrial quality, and equipment performance require continuous collaboration between all stakeholders in the sector.

During the plenary session, participants discussed key topics such as industrial equipment design, the manufacturing of mechanical and process assemblies, system integration, and compliance with strict nuclear regulatory requirements.

The event also provided an opportunity for several participants to introduce their companies, areas of expertise, and key achievements. These presentations helped highlight the complementarity of skills across the nuclear value chain and encouraged future cooperation.

These exchanges contribute to overall industry progress by promoting knowledge sharing, innovation, and continuous improvement of industrial practices.

Showcasing DG SKID’s expertise

On this occasion, DG SKID had the opportunity to present its activities, teams, and organization to all participants attending the event.

The discussions continued within our workshop environment, where a dedicated presentation was delivered showcasing our expertise as an industrial integrator, our approach to complex project execution, and several ongoing industrial projects.

This presentation highlighted the capabilities of our teams and provided insight into the key industrial challenges faced by our clients, particularly within highly regulated sectors such as nuclear energy.

As an industrial integrator, DG SKID supports its clients in the design, coordination, and execution of complex industrial projects. Our expertise relies on strong capabilities in quality management, project execution, and the integration of equipment for highly regulated environments such as the nuclear industry.

This presentation also illustrated our know-how through several ongoing projects, demonstrating our ability to deliver technically demanding solutions while maintaining high standards of quality, safety, and performance.

Innovation and cooperation within the nuclear sector

The French nuclear industry is built on a strong ecosystem of companies capable of innovating while maintaining internationally recognized standards of excellence.

The work carried out within the Nuclear Valley “Design and Manufacturing of Equipment” working group fully contributes to this dynamic by fostering exchanges between manufacturers, engineering offices, suppliers, and project owners.

For DG SKID, hosting this event represents recognition of its commitment to the nuclear sector and its active role in developing reliable, high-performance industrial solutions for future challenges.

Beyond technical discussions, this gathering was also a meaningful moment for DG SKID’s teams, proud to showcase their expertise, organization, and contribution to the French nuclear industry.

These events are essential to building the nuclear industry of tomorrow, strengthening cooperation between stakeholders, and continuously improving practices in industrial equipment design, manufacturing, and integration.
