📜 Our Story
The beginning of the Eurofeu adventure!
Under the leadership of Nicole & Michel LAHOUATI, Eurofeu was founded as a trading company for fire safety equipment.
Initially based at their home in La Motte - Le Mesnil-Thomas (28), the company operated from a 150 m² space.
Launch of the production
The first fire extinguisher was created in 1981 at Le Mesnil-Thomas, within a new 1,500 m² workshop.
Eurofeu Group thus began the production of its own range of fire extinguishers, of all types and capacities.
New office in Senonches (28)
The Eurofeu group's factory and headquarters move to the 7.86-hectare industrial site of the Forêt. This site features 21,500 m² of factory and warehouse space, as well as 1,600 m² of office space.
Acquisitions and awards multiply
Eurofeu is focusing on an external growth strategy and acquires several companies to enrich its activities and strengthen its position in the fire safety market.
The ingenuity of Eurofeu's teams has been repeatedly recognized by the industry since 2011.
New perspectives
In 2020, Michel LAHOUATI reduced his stake, and the presidency of the Eurofeu Group was handed over to Eric HENTGES with the support of the French investment fund CAPZA.
In 2020 and 2021, 6 new companies joined the group, strengthening the breadth of its technical expertise.
Celebrations
Eurofeu celebrates its 50th anniversary, and to mark this occasion, the entire graphic charter of the Group has been renewed.
In July, the company AMI2S joins the Group, and the milestone of 1,500 employees is reached.
Together, let's continue the great adventure of Eurofeu.
In January, the TECC teams joined the Eurofeu group.
The growth momentum is accelerating, and Eurofeu is hiring in various fields across France.
