the group's history :


The strategy of the NEU SA group is the design and construction of ìtailor madeî industrial equipment based on the use of Air.

Manufacturing know how in aeraulics and air treatment goes back to 1906, when Henri NEU, promoter of industrial air, founded the Etablissements NEU Limited Company.

The company worked in all parts of the country by 1912 and started its international expansion in 1967. Etablissements NEU opened its Marcq-en-Baroeul factory between 1959 and 1961 to build a design and research center, and a test station; it also contains the Headquarters and General Services.
Faced with the changing situation, Etablissements NEU was taken over firstly by Elf Aquitaine in 1980 and then the Société Financière de Participations Industrielles (Financial Industrial Holdings Company) in 1989. The subsidiarization policy revitalized activities in the various departments.


The group now includes eight subsidiaries, including two in other countries, each excelling in a specific use of air. The NEU SA Group employs 500 persons and its consolidated sales are now 500 million Francs.
