Silvadec, the european leading wood composite manufacturer

Silvadec was founded in France in 2001, and was the first company to manufacture wood composite in Europe. The cofounders, Bénédicte Jézéquel and Philippe Crez, contacted the leading North American company to develop a special formulation of wood composite made largely of wood flour to create Silvadec wood composite , a patented product. Since then, international demand has continued to grow. As a pioneering wood composite manufacturer, Silvadec has almost 20 years experience with this technology, and almost 30 years of historical perspective through its North American partner.

Thanks to its expertise, experience and innovation, Silvadec occupies a leading position in France and Europe in the manufacture of wood composite, and is considered a model of excellence on its market.

Finally, Silvadec pays special attention to the quality of its raw material, which is why we have partnered with a Brittany, in 2014, sawmill through the “C2J” Joint Venture. We control the quality and volume of our wood flour, thereby optimizing control over the finished product.

  Key figures:

• Founded in Azal in October 2001, France
• 4000 m² industrial site
• Production of 1 million m² of wood composite per year
