Groupe Cassin

What Groupe Cassin does

Groupe Cassin is a privately held, family-owned French construction group headquartered in Saint-Sauveur, Occitanie, operating continuously since 1963. It runs four wholly owned subsidiaries — Cassin Travaux Publics (earthworks, VRD, road construction), Cassin Désamiantage Démolition (certified asbestos removal and demolition, including a 24/7 emergency collapse-response service), Les Cassin Bâtiment & Rénovation (LCBR, building construction, renovation, and energy-performance upgrades), and Cassin Recyclage (construction and demolition waste sorting, crushing, and material valorization, including the ECO COLLECT' on-site logistics service). The group employs approximately 220 people plus temporary labor, operates a fleet of 120 construction vehicles, and targets a 40% on-site recycling rate; it cites a potential 17 million tonnes of recycled concrete that could substitute 10–30% of natural aggregates in new compositions.

The business operates a project-based B2B and B2G sales model, primarily through competitive public procurement in the Occitanie region. Its customer base, as evidenced by named project references, consists almost entirely of French public-sector and institutional buyers including TISSEO, CHU Purpan, Toulouse Métropole, Communautés de communes, Départements, and Communes. Certifications such as Qualibat and compliance with articles L214-3 (IIbis) and R.214-44 of the French Environmental Code are core to qualifying for these contracts. Revenue streams span one-time project works, professional services (asbestos remediation), and hardware sales of recycled aggregates. The registered capital of CASSIN HOLDING is €6,198,348; the group is bootstrapped with no external equity or PE backing disclosed.

In 2025, the group plans to open a new sorting, valorization, and reuse platform co-funded by Région Occitanie and ADEME — constructed from the group's own 2021 deconstruction project — marking an offensive move into circular-economy infrastructure. Strategic positioning emphasizes integrated responsibility across the full construction lifecycle (analysis, deconstruction, design, construction, post-work valorization) and alignment with France's national ecological-transition mandates, supported by local circular-economy partnerships with Synethic Toulouse, Sobra, and Metamo.

Broad incumbents

• Bouygues Construction: Major French general contractor with activities in civil engineering, building, and public works. Competes with Cassin for larger public-sector tenders and represents a long-term competitive ceiling.
• Eiffage Construction: Large established French construction incumbent with capabilities spanning public works, demolition, energy renovation, and circular-economy services. Broader geographic reach and scale than Cassin but overlapping offering.
• Suez Recycling and Recovery: Global environmental services and waste management company with construction-waste valorization capabilities. Adjacent competitor to Cassin Recyclage, particularly for large municipal contracts.
• Paprec Group: France's largest independent recycling group with significant construction-and-demolition waste (DIB) capabilities. Comparable to Cassin Recyclage on the circular-economy axis and a potential competitor or partner for aggregate valorization.
• VINCI Construction: Largest French construction group with extensive earthworks, demolition, and environmental services operations. Sets the competitive benchmark for integrated BTP service delivery in France.

Direct peers

• Spie batignolles: Independent French construction group active in public works, earthworks, and renovation with strong regional roots. Comparable to Cassin in family-originated, multi-division French construction profile.
• Colas: Bouygues subsidiary and world leader in road construction and infrastructure. Highly comparable to Cassin Travaux Publics on VRD and earthworks, though at vastly greater scale.
• NGE: French mid-size multi-disciplinary construction group covering earthworks, VRD, demolition, and environmental works. Directly comparable to Groupe Cassin in scope and regional/general contractor model, though NGE operates nationally.
• GCC (Générale de Construction et de Carrelage): Independent French construction group operating in public works, building, and renovation. Comparable to Cassin's integrated public-works-plus-building profile in a similar mid-market segment.
• Demcy: French specialist in demolition, deconstruction, and asbestos remediation with strong circular-economy positioning. Closest direct peer on the demolition/asbestos/recycling axis of Cassin's business.
