The Furmeca precision mechanics factory in Fursac has just experienced a major moment with the inauguration of its expansion works celebrated at the same time as the anniversary of its fifty years of existence.
After the screening of a short presentation film, the manager, Franck Parbaud, surrounded by all the staff, presented the history of Furmeca, a contraction of Fursac Mécanique.
The factory operates in the fields of aeronautics, railway, naval and even general industry, with turning parts with digitally controlled lathes, sometimes precise to the nearest micron.

On the occasion of the company’s fiftieth anniversary and the inauguration of the extension works (1), Franck Parbaud greeted, among others, the company’s customers, staff, elected officials, as well as Gilbert Barret, his predecessor for 34 years.
