History

1935

In 1935, Etablissements ROLLIN and DUPRET, a company based at 6 place de l’Hôtel de Ville in St-Etienne (Loire), founded a creosoting and notching plant for railway sleepers at Paray-le-Monial.

1987

The plant was bought by Larochette.

1995

France Bois Imprégnés took over the company and removed the company name ICPF.

1997

The Baret Group, the head office of which is located in Haybes in the Ardennes, bought the site and applied to the Prefecture for an authorisation to change of ownership: the company name ICPF was restored.

1999

Substantial investments were undertaken to completely restructure the site and the industrial tooling, to set up sustainable company management and production. The former treatment facilities were replaced.

2001

A second modern, computer-controlled autoclave was installed for salt impregnation of wood sleepers and outdoor timber.

2018

The company invested in a 5-axis CNC machining centre. A new building was erected to accommodate a 5-axis CNC system. New machining operations were then available.
