EIFFAGE whips up bridges, tunnels, and roads the way others might whip cream. With dozens of subsidiaries, the company builds infrastructure and commercial projects, primarily in western Europe. The group is active in five sectors: concessions and public-private partnerships, construction, public works, energy, and metal. Its construction activities include civil engineering, new housing, and commercial and industrial building, and is split evenly between the public and private sectors. Major completed projects include the Perpignan-Figueras high speed rail link and the Millau Viaduct -- the world's highest cable-stayed bridge. France accounts for some 80% of EIFFAGE's business.
