Thanks to its long and extensive track record of projects successfully built, the CLI team has acquired world-leading experience in the design assistance, laboratory testing and construction of breakwater armouring, always listening to the needs of the Clients, : Consultants, engineering firms, Contractors, developers, port Authorities, etc… 
With all the possibilities offered by today’s communication techniques, the CLI team is not just present on-site, but also easy to be remotely contacted in order to answer technical questions, to organize on-line training sessions, etc. In addition, CLI experts are capable of communicating in French, English, Spanish, Italian, Polish and Arabic languages and are used to work in a multicultural environment, always at side of their Clients.

The assurance of a responsive technical and commercial management

Cyril Giraudel - an expert in breakwater protection with over 20 years of experience at Artelia - oversees the management of CLI. He has been involved in the design, construction, and monitoring of numerous marine structures around the world, which has enabled him to acquire a very broad range of expertise and technical know-how.
Francesco Galante - a specialist in the design of marine and coastal structures - oversees CLI’s commercial operations. With over 40 years of experience in the field, he possesses a thorough understanding of the needs and expectations of both structural designers and contractors.

This combination of multidisciplinary experience provides a pragmatic approach to ensure appropriate, tailored technical assistance at all stages of the project. This effective assistance enables the consistent and reliable use of the technologies marketed by CLI to contractors, engineering firms, laboratories, and private and public authorities.
Cyril leads the R&D activity specializing in armor blocks, supported by Francesco.
The management team is backed up in these exciting challenges by Ms. Yuliia Okatieva Horizoe (Business Operations Coordinator) and Ms. Laurence Duthu (Sales & Team Assistant), as well as by Artelia engineers when necessary.

The guarantee of optimal technical assistance

Our technical assistance team includes experts in single-layer technique, project managers with jobsite experience and a deep knowledge on concrete production and construction equipment, and a team of draftsmen able to develop placement drawings on basis of information supplied by the Contractors. The experts are entirely dedicated to the technologies marketed by CLI and have unsurpassed know-how in the provision of technical assistance. They also cooperate with Consultants, international engineering firms, design offices, contractors and hydraulic laboratories to ensure that the methods used to set up physical models are consistent with those used to place the actual blocks on-site.
