The foundations
Founded in Belgium in 2014 by Frederic Desille and Jean-Michel Dever, TERMECA's goal is to develop high value-added solutions for production lines in the glass industry, including flat glass annealing lehr. At that time, the engineering company set up their first partnership with companies specialising in thermal and mechanical fields.
Opening the first office
In 2017, the company became independent and relocated to Namur. In the same year TERMECA took on its first employees in the field of technical drawing.
TERMECA becomes TERMECA CHOQUENET
2018 marked the arrival of the company CHOQUENET and the formation of TERMECA CHOQUENET. CHOQUENET, a French family-owned company, is world-renowned in the field of mechanical drives for annealing lehrs. The French workshops have equipped a large number of float glass production lines across five continents. With an excellent reputation in the industry, CHOQUENET is the last company to have the knowledge, engineering, manufacturing and management of over 150 float glass production lines worldwide. CHOQUENET is considered to be one of the fathers of the mechanical drives still in operation.
Complete independence
The engineering company specialises in the forming and cooling of glass ribbons in float glass production. It provides independent advice for repairing existing lines with various brands of annealing lehrs and offers its expertise in the construction of new production lines with a range of equipment and services.
