Tailored projects
Every facility is studied on its own terms. We start from an analysis of the actual installation —consumption, circuits, effluent characteristics— and the solution follows from that, not the other way round.
Contributing to environmental care through savings
At Calcat we design tailored engineering solutions for facilities that operate with water, protecting them while caring for the environment. Our physical treatment eliminates chemicals and achieves water savings of between 20% and 60%.
We enjoy what we do, providing full, tailored advice so that our clients get the right solution to their problems in environmental water management and facility care, optimizing water use while also improving profitability and corporate image.
How we work
Our own team, from start to finish
Turnkey
We take on the whole project: basic engineering, hydraulic and process calculations, sizing, manufacturing, installation and commissioning. A single point of contact.
From audit to maintenance
Engineers and technicians on our own payroll, never subcontracted. The same people who audit the facility commission it and stay in charge of operation, control and maintenance.
Research
Scientific journals publish our research projects
Partnership agreements and collaboration contracts with public universities help us improve our technologies day by day and advance our engineers. Industrial doctoral contracts create synergy between academia and business. Likewise, attending various events (national and international congresses, seminars, workshops…) in oral, flash and scientific-poster formats lets us present the progress of our research, as well as its publication in high-impact scientific journals.
