CDE, 1st French manufacturer of
storage tanks
ALCE-CDE is a leading French manufacturer of storage tanks and industrial piping with over 50 years of expertise. We understand that your business is strategic and requires the best equipment. That’s why we manufacture top-quality industrial piping, perfectly suited to the specific requirements of your field of expertise. These skids include tanks, welded frames, piping, pumps, valves, probes, meters, pressure gauges, actuators, control cabinets and more.
Water transport
Whether you need to transport water or seawater for a condenser cooling system, a continuous condenser cleaning system or a penstock, you can rely on the quality of our industrial piping. Our products are designed to handle a wide range of applications, offering solutions that meet various standards such as NF EN 13480.
Our team of experienced professionals works closely with our customers to understand their specific needs and provide solutions that effectively meet those requirements. To meet your requirements, we design your customized industrial piping from flat sheet metal, which we roll into a tube. Depending on your requirements, we add flanges at each end of the tube to enable the sections to be joined together – except where on-site connection is by welding, in which case flanges are not necessary.
Your industrial piping can be manufactured in carbon steel or stainless steel, with epoxy paint coating, hard rubberizing or other options to suit your requirements. Our industrial piping parts can measure up to 6 meters in a single piece, and are manufactured in several sectors beyond these dimensions. The thickness of your piping is determined by our calculations, which include stress analysis, seismic standards, supports, etc.
Industrial pipe supports
Our services include piping support or ‘industrial piping support,’ industrial piping insulation or ‘industrial insulation,’ and industrial piping design or ‘industrial piping design. We also specialize in the creation of production units (skids), gas separators, condenser manufacturers, reactor coils, and liquid-vapor separators.
In addition to our storage solution delivery service, we can also produce your drawings and calculation notes, your welding booklet, your quality plan or your manufacturer’s file. You’ll have everything you need to make the best possible use of your industrial piping.
Assemblers
We are also a trusted supplier of turnkey solutions. We take care of everything from design and manufacture to installation and maintenance, offering our customers a single point of contact for all their needs. This approach not only simplifies project management, but also ensures better coordination and communication, leading to better results.

Our FAQs
What processes are involved in industrial piping
Industrial piping involves several processes, including design, manufacture, installation and maintenance. Design involves identifying specific project requirements, such as the type of fluid to be conveyed, operating pressure and temperature, and environmental constraints. Fabrication involves cutting, forming and welding pipes to design specifications. Installation requires precise pipe layout to ensure optimal operation. Finally, maintenance includes regular inspection and servicing of pipes to ensure their performance and durability.
What are the standards for industrial piping
Industrial piping standards vary according to country and industry. However, some international standards are widely accepted, such as ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) and ISO (International Organization for Standardization). In France, commonly used standards include NF EN 13480 for metallic pressure installations, NF EN 10217 for welded steel pipes for pressure service, and NF EN 10216 for seamless steel tubes for pressure service. These standards define design, manufacturing, installation and maintenance requirements to ensure the safety and performance of industrial piping systems.
Can ALCE-CDE deal with insulation problems
In addition to industrial piping, we also specialize in pipe insulation. Pipe insulation plays a crucial role in energy conservation by reducing heat loss or gain from pipes, improving the efficiency of your system. It can also help prevent condensation on cold pipes, which can lead to corrosion and other problems.
Our team at ALCE-CDE is also skilled in the design and installation of heat exchangers. Heat exchangers are devices used to transfer heat between two or more fluids. They are widely used in space heating, refrigeration, air conditioning, power plants, chemical plants, petrochemical plants, oil refineries, and more.
