About Fiberflux

Fiberflux is a one of a kind innovative scale-up that develops installation systems and pipeline components to deploy fiber optic cables inside (drinking water) pipelines. By using the optical fibers as sensors (Fiber Optic Sensing), a wide range of anomalies in and around pipelines can be detected in real time through the analysis of acoustic patterns using AI-powered software.

This groundbreaking pipeline monitoring solution, DALI Pipeline Monitoring, is being developed and internationally commercialized in collaboration with Fluves, a Ghent-based software engineering company specialized in Fiber Optic Sensing applications.

DALI Pipeline Monitoring aims to become an essential core technology for every water utility worldwide by delivering unparalleled, high-quality data enabling significantly more efficient pipeline network management. The solution allows for accurate and rapid detection of leaks, intrusions, and other irregularities. In doing so, we help address one of the most critical sustainability challenges facing water utilities and society at large: reducing water losses and making existing water infrastructure more sustainable. In addition, the new in-pipe fiber optic connections create new opportunities for data communication and the further digitalization of the water infrastructure.

Fiberflux has its commercial and administrative office at the Wintercircus in Ghent, where it was selected to be part of the Startup Campus. Our technical workshop and logistics operations are based in Puurs-Sint-Amands, in a shared facility with two other (family-)related companies.
