Testimonials

Marc-HERITIER

We are the first to have created a process for making slabs with tropical woods and oak. And to develop our business, setting up in the 1st French port for the import and processing of forest products was a great solution! For its execution, the ATLANWOOD project required an investment of two million euros. To finance the building, we received significant assistance from the General Council of Charente-Maritime. For hiring, the Poitou-Charentes Regional Council supported us and to finance the equipment, we were helped by the Regional Directorate for Food, Agriculture and Forestry. The Port of La Rochelle, for its part, provided us valuable support for which we are grateful.

The choice of Atlantic Port La Rochelle to set up our cement mill was obvious: availability of spaces, new port terminal with quality infrastructure and synergies with port operators.The partnership with our handler allows us to unload clinker vessels in a mechanised manner with high speeds and the greatest respect for the environment.
