Aumelec's vision: investing in Clermont-Ferrand's industrial future
The Clermont-Ferrand based metal transformation specialist, Aumelec, is making a substantial commitment to its future and to the region with a €3 million investment in a brand-new facility. Located in the dynamic Les Gravanches area of Clermont-Ferrand, this ambitious project will include 2,400 m² dedicated to high-efficiency production and 400 m² of modern office space.
With delivery anticipated for November 2026, this development is set to double the company's productive capacity, following an impressive 15% growth this year, showcasing the robust opportunities for businesses looking for industrial expansion in Clermont-Ferrand.
Expanding capacity for diverse markets
Aumelec's strategic investment is not just about increasing footprint; it's about broadening horizons. The company's president, Guillaume Collas, aims to tap into new, high-growth sectors such as Defense and Energy, complementing their established presence in the pharmaceutical, aeronautical, and agri-food industries.
This diversification highlights the adaptability and potential for growth within Clermont-Ferrand's industrial landscape, making it an attractive location for businesses seeking versatile industrial real estate and a skilled workforce.
State-of-the-art technology & energy efficiency
At the heart of this expansion is a commitment to cutting-edge technology and sustainability. Aumelec plans to acquire a new generation fiber laser cutting machine, a €500,000 investment set to reduce energy consumption by 50%.
This acquisition is significantly supported by France 2030's “Rebond Industriel” program, covering 35% of the cost. For businesses seeking energy-efficient industrial premises or warehouse solutions, Aumelec’s approach sets a high standard for modern, cost-effective operations in the region.
Sustainable design: a model for eco-conscious businesses
The future Aumelec building will incorporate a strict Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) approach, featuring photovoltaic panels, green canopies over the parking area, extensive green spaces, and a hybrid heating and cooling system.
This emphasis on sustainability offers a compelling model for companies prioritizing eco-friendly and energy-efficient office and warehouse spaces. Clermont-Ferrand is proving to be a hub where modern industrial development goes hand-in-hand with environmental stewardship.
Clermont-Ferrand: a growing hub for industrial success
Aumelec's ambition to reach €5 million in revenue and employ 40 staff by 2030, with three new hires joining by the end of next year, underscores the dynamic economic environment in Clermont-Ferrand.
For businesses exploring opportunities for office space to rent or new industrial units, Aumelec's trajectory is a strong indicator of the region's potential for growth, innovation, and sustainable development. Clermont-Ferrand is rapidly becoming a prime location for forward-thinking enterprises.
