The presentation took place during a press visit to the Pech-David drinking water production plant, in the presence of Arnaud Sigu, Vice-President of Toulouse Métropole in charge of water and sanitation, Jean-Pierre Gasc, president of the water and sanitation commission, and Elodie Galko, Director General of the Adour-Garonne Water Agency. The Qualité + system has been operational at Pech David since July 2026.
This system contributes to the continuous improvement of the sanitary and taste quality of drinking water distributed to the inhabitants of the metropolis through innovative treatment processes, allowing for the elimination of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), or "forever pollutants."
The Pech-David plant is the largest of the three drinking water plants of Toulouse Métropole, with a production capacity of 150,000 m³ of drinking water per day, sourced from the Garonne and Ariège rivers. Pech-David is the second plant equipped with Qualité +, after the one in Clairfont (in Portet-sur-Garonne) which was equipped in the summer of 2025.
The meeting was scheduled for Thursday, November 12, at 11 a.m. at the Pech-David drinking water production plant, located at 60 chemin des Côtes de Pech-David, 31400 Toulouse. An identity document was mandatory for access to the plant, and personal protective equipment was provided for the visit.
