Jouanel Industrie

Type: Manufacturer of sheet metal working machines and hand tools
Headquarters & factory: 30 rue des Saulniers, 37800 Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine, France

Jouanel suits roofers, cladding installers, ductwork fabricators and thermal insulation contractors, the trades that work thin sheet by hand and machine in the workshop or on site. It's especially relevant to industrial insulation firms cladding pipework in refineries and chemical plants, a niche few machine makers serve directly. Buyers who want a European-built machine with certified French origin, local spares and long-term servicing will find Jouanel a strong fit, and contractors can buy hand tools from the same supplier. In Spain, Jouanel machines are also sold through LOMUSA in Madrid.

Full Description

Jouanel Industrie has designed, made and sold sheet metal machines and tools in France since 1948. Its headquarters and factory are in Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine, in the Indre-et-Loire department south of Tours. Its machines carry the "Origine France Garantie" label, an independent certification that confirms a product is genuinely made in France.

Jouanel organises its range around three trades. For the building envelope (metal roofing, cladding and façades), it makes folders, shears, profilers, rollers and cutting lines. For industrial thermal insulation, where contractors clad pipework and vessels in thin metal at refineries and chemical plants, it supplies rollers, beaders, edge machines, benders and plasma and laser cutting tables. For ventilation, it offers machines for making both rectangular and circular duct, along with sealing and welding equipment.

Alongside its standard machines, Jouanel builds special machines to order and sells a range of professional hand tools for sheet metal workers, from hammers and snips to measuring tools.

Service is a major part of what it offers. A dedicated technical support line handles after-sales queries, and Jouanel offers maintenance contracts, operator training, machine rebuilding, and safety and compliance upgrades for older machines.
