History
Les Fonderies de Saint-Remy was created in 1906 in Montluçon by brothers Henri and Victor de Saint-Remy, who were moulders in Saint-Jacques steelworks.

They opened up in a little warehouse along the Cher river and developed friction bronze in the guise of bearing bushes.

The setting-up of a finish machine shop in 1945 allowed to supply well-known customers like Michelin - Dunlop - Creusot Loire - Usinor with finished products.

In 1952, the factory developed sand cast alloys with high lead content and since 1985, pure and precipitation hardening coppers.

In 1987, the Company decided to move up in an industrial area in Commentry to face this expansion.

The company was bought in 1994 by Les Bronzes d?Industrie (LBI), specialists in centrifugal casting of non ferrous alloys and stainless steel, and became Saint-Remy Industrie (SRI), a subsidiary of LBI.

Thanks to substantial investments in electric melting and numerical control machine in machining, this new impetus enables us to develop aluminium bronze in the ship and hydraulic industry markets, and coppers with high conductivity in electric equipments of medium and high tension and welding equipment for the car industry.

The company was certified ISO 9002 in 1997.

Finally, complementary manufacturing and commercial development synergy with LBI enables SRI to develop significant export sales.
