OVERPIPE is a subsidiary of the Joubeaux family group, founded in 1988. One of the group’s main activities involves civil engineering works around pipelines.

OVERPIPE came about following a request by GDF Suez, which was looking for innovative solutions for mechanical protection against risks from third party interference (more than 40% of the total accidents on underground pipelines). The development of demand and the widening of the range led to the creation in 2014 of a dedicated structure. The OVERPIPE head office is located close to Aix en Provence (France).

OVERPIPE products are generally created following a request from a customer, whether it be the protection of underground pipelines and networks, or slabs for transformer substations. OVERPIPE handles the design, testing, certification and patents.

OVERPIPE also owns the moulds and dedicated tools for production. Production is carried out through exclusive long-term agreements with the most technologically advanced factories, in order to ensure the specifications are met. Of course, OVERPIPE is responsible for quality control, logistics and the administrative chain. OVERPIPE is led by Yannick Joubeaux. He coordinates all activities of the company: design, production, sales, administration, and to do so he has the support of highly qualified specialist teams. OVERPIPE naturally benefits from all the resources of the Joubeaux group.
