Constructions Bois EMG

What Constructions Bois EMG does

Constructions Bois EMG is a privately held French construction company structured as a société anonyme (SA), founded in 1994 and headquartered in Châtelaudren-Plouagat, Brittany. The firm specializes in the study, construction, and assembly of wooden structure buildings, serving a diversified portfolio of sectors that includes agricultural, industrial, commercial, equestrian, tertiary, public/educational, and sports facilities. Its customer base spans both public entities (municipalities, departmental councils, public housing authorities) and large private enterprises (notably SUEZ, DECATHLON, La Poste, and agricultural cooperatives), with operations concentrated regionally within Brittany.

EMG's core technology is glued laminated timber (lamellé-collé) framing, wood frame construction (ossature bois), and traditional timber framing, with demonstrated capability in large-span engineered structures — up to 75 meters as in the SUEZ warehouse reconstruction, and complex signature projects such as the MusikHall Rennes concert hall (54m spans, 490 m³ of laminated timber, 7,830 m²). The company holds PASSIVE building and BBCA (low-carbon) certifications, having designed and built the first PASSIVE-certified gendarmerie in France in Lannion, inaugurated in October 2024. Adjacent service lines include asbestos removal (désamiantage), structural reinforcement of existing frameworks, and custom exterior carpentry.

Revenue is generated through project-based construction contracts awarded via competitive tender (appel d'offre) and direct client engagement, with per-project pricing determined by scope, materials, and specifications. The company employs 51–100 people, reports €500,000 in share capital, and operates as a design-build contractor with no public listing, parent company, or disclosed institutional investors.
