In 2026, VALENTIN keeps pushing the boundaries of innovation to serve installers and users. This year, the company has also been rethinking the product design to make it more sustainable and environmentally responsible.
Arnaud Valentin, President of VALENTIN, shares insights into this long-term effort that has mobilized all teams across the company.

"From our site in Feuquières-en-Vimeu, we have been manufacturing drainage solutions that, for decades, have supported plumbers, installers and distributors throughout France and abroad.
In 2026, we take a major step forward: GOODPRINT, our new range of waste fittings made from 100% recycled plastic (product body) is engineered to combine technical performance with responsible use of resources.
Our guiding is simple: no compromise on performance. GOODPRINT components are designed to deliver high flow rates, long-lasting watertightness and mechanical strength suited to both new-build and renovation projects. This requires a rigorous selection of recycled materials, controlled formulations, tight dimensional checks and endurance/leak-tightness testing on our in-house test benches.
GOODPRINT also reflects a clear industrial direction: reducing our footprint without shifting the constraints elsewhere. We reuse controlled recycled polymers, optimise wall thickness to the nearest tenth of a millimetre, design for repairability (seals, grids, covers and accessories available), and carefully rethink packaging: kraft bags and recyclable cardboard boxes, simplified instructions, and clear sorting labels.
The result: less virgin plastic, less waste, greater operational efficiency… without changing the way you work.
None of this would exist without the trust of our partners—wholesalers, engineering offices and installers—or without the commitment of the Valentin teams. GOODPRINT is their signature: proof that we can do more with less, while remaining reliable, precise and close to the field.
On behalf of the company, thank you for your continued trust.
