66th Congress of the roofers

Reception at Jouanel Industrie

It was with a great pleasure  we welcomed on May 25th in our factory in Sainte Maure de Touraine, 150 young roofers currently mentoring on their "Tour de France" on the occasion of the 66th congress for Compagnons of the roofing branch, which took place in Vallères (Indre-et-Loire - France) last weekend.

The last Congress of the Compagnons organised in the area took place more than 20 years ago. JOUANEL Industrie,  as the only French manufacturer, had to receive this young roofers-to-be in its stronghold in Touraine. Everyone was able to witness Jouanel's know-how our various workshops displaying manual and electric machines as well as numerical controls designed for roofing and handtools. This visit was the opportunity for them to try-out enthusiastically the tools that will accompany them throughout their career.

A friendly drink and a tasting of goat cheese and rillons (from Sainte Maure of course!) concluded this visit. Thank you to the Compagnons from Tours, their partners and team of professionals  who masterfully organised this congress!
