Altrad Services is organised around multidisciplinary teams with an unprecedented wealth of expertise. This offer, the very first of its kind available in the industrial market, is adapted to the specific needs of each customer. This high added value and wealth creation approach is the result of several unique stories that gave birth to Altrad Services.

• 1985: The Altrad group is founded in Montpellier, France.
• Today, the group is still led by its founder Mohed Altrad. In 30 years, it has become a major player in the construction equipment manufacturing and distribution sector.
• In 2006, the group arrived at a significant turning point through the takeover of Balliauw which specialises in the provision of services to the industrial sector.
• In 2015-2017, this strategy is confirmed as Altrad triples its size in just two years, following the takeover of three leading European industrial services companies: firstly, the Dutch firm Hertel, then the French group Prezioso Linjebygg, and finally the British leader Cape plc.
• These three major operations complete the already significant list of companies which specialise in the provision of industrial services: Altrad Services is today the successful integration of various Altrad companies, all leaders in their respective markets: Altrad Balliauw, Hertel, Prezioso Linjebygg, Cape plc, but also Altrad Rodisola, Altrad NSG, Poujaud and Comi Service.
• From 2020, the Altrad group continues its external growth operations: in 2020, Adyard joins the ranks of the Altrad services companies. Then, 2021 becomes the year of unprecedented acquisitions, both in terms of integrated companies (eleven), and additional revenues generated from these growth operations (around €1.7 billion).
