Pommier

What Pommier does

Pommier (legal entity POMMIER S.A.S.) is a French privately held industrial company founded in 1945 that designs, manufactures, and distributes accessories and equipment for trucks and other industrial vehicles. Operating from six proprietary production plants with approximately 320 employees and headquartered in the Paris region (Saint-Prix/Beauchamp, with R&D in Saint-Ouen-l'Aumône and a manufacturing site at Dives-sur-Mer), Pommier serves around 10,000 customers across 30 countries through direct sales teams, country subsidiaries in the UK, Spain, and Germany, exclusive distribution partnerships, and digital channels.

The company's product offering spans seven categories organized around five core product universes — Attelages (couplings/towing hitches), Protections (R58-03-approved underrun bars), Fixations (lashing rings and rails), Ouvrants (sectional doors and hatches), and Eclairages (lighting systems) — supplemented by Accessoires sous-châssis (sub-frame accessories such as wheel accessories, mudguards, tool boxes) and Compléments carrosserie (bodywork complements including seals, aluminium profiles, curtains, and ventilation). Notable proprietary technologies include the AIRWIN aerodynamic rear deflector system (2.5% fuel consumption reduction, ~0.7L per 100km, 28-month ROI at 120,000 km/year), the OXZY ventilation trap (up to 300 m³/h airflow at 80 km/h, IK10-rated), and the RC 2,5 CLIX self-locking quick-mount lashing ring. The company holds over 100 patents, invests more than 1.5% of revenue in innovation, and is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified.

Pommier's revenue model is hardware sales across B2B customer segments — vehicle body builders (carrossiers), truck manufacturers (constructeurs de camions), and defense vehicle constructors — supplemented by spare-parts catalogs. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and requires account creation on the e-shop or NEMO product configurator. Distribution combines an enterprise field-sales motion for OEM and body-builder accounts, an e-commerce self-serve channel, the multilingual NEMO digital configurator (six languages), and exclusive third-party brand distribution agreements (Onspot, LOKHEN, WIHAG, Pselect).

• V. Orlandi Group: V. Orlandi is an Italian manufacturer of truck and trailer body components, including mudguards, tool boxes, and accessories. It is a direct Southern European peer to Pommier's sub-frame accessories and bodywork complement categories.
• Fontaine Fifth Wheel: Fontaine Fifth Wheel is a North American specialist in fifth wheel coupling systems for heavy-duty trucks. It is directly comparable to Pommier's coupling (attelages) product line, though it primarily serves the North American market.
