Atelier Du Bocage

What Atelier Du Bocage does

Atelier du Bocage is a French artisanal woodworking cooperative headquartered in Saint-Sulpice-Le-Verdon (Montréverd), Vendée, operating as a SCOP (Société Coopérative et Participative) since its founding on April 2, 1979. The firm is structured around three product lines — timber frame construction (Ossature Bois), joinery (Menuiserie), and interior fitting (Agencement) — and covers the full project lifecycle through dedicated service stages: Création (design with 3D realistic visualizations), Fabrication (in-house manufacturing), Installation (sector-dedicated teams), and SAV/Dépannage (after-sales and emergency repairs).

The production backbone is an in-house workshop equipped with a 5-axis CNC machining center, CNC saw, frame assembly table with overhead crane, edge banding machine, tenoner, thicknesser, mortiser, wide-belt sander, and CNC router, enabling precision fabrication for timber frame houses, custom joinery, exterior structures (pergolas, fencing, gates), and bespoke interior elements. The firm holds RGE Qualibat certification, allowing its customers to access French state subsidies (Eco-PTZ, Ma Prime Rénov, CEE primes) on energy renovation work, and has delivered a PASSIVHAUS-certified passive house project.

The business is run as a project-based, quote-priced craft business with 39 employee-associates divided across commercial technicians, design office, administration, workshop production, installation, and after-sales. The go-to-market is direct, field-led sales to residential homeowners and a smaller base of commercial clients (e.g., beach facilities, heritage/tourism sites such as the Logis de la Chabotterie footbridge for the 2018 Tour de France reception). Revenue is not publicly disclosed; geographic reach is concentrated in the Vendée and Loire Atlantique departments of western France, with cross-referral flow via the ACV Constructor network (16 artisan builders) and materials sourcing via Artipôle.
