The SFA Group was founded in 1958 and started with the design and construction of wastewater treatment plants. The SFA Group also developed in other sectors. Very quickly, in 1960, SFA revolutionized the sanitary equipment market by creating the famous Sanibroyeur and gradually left aside its water treatment activity.
