Come and discover the history of the Sfpi Group.
In 1983, Henri Morel, a young entrepreneur graduated from HEC, bought his first company, Dupeux, specialized in industrial heat insulation. This is the beginning of an entrepreneurial adventure...
Henri Morel continues his activities in 1984, notably by taking over the industrial locking solutions market, with the acquisition of Dény and then Métalux.
Groupe SFPI is created in 1985, in order to organize the first companies bought and to favor new acquisitions.
After 30 years of national and international growth, a percentage of the capital of Groupe SFPI is successfully listed on the stock exchange (Euronext Paris).
This decision strengthens the development of the group and gives rise to a number of innovative initiatives, such as the adoption of a CSR policy.
Henri Morel and the other founders of Groupe SFPI remain the majority shareholders and continue to be the group's operational managers, with the mission to develop the group's 80 and more companies.
Since its listing on the stock exchange, Groupe SFPI continues its internal and external growth. Today, the group achieves a turnover of more than 500 million euros and employs more than 3800 people.
The group accelerates its internationalization, as shown by the recent acquisition of JKF Industri A/S.
Groupe SFPI is also pursuing efforts to integrate its different activities and to develop a common brand and identity.
In 2017, Sfpi acquires JKF to create the NEU-JKF division, enabling the group to establish itself in Denmark and become a major European player in air treatment.
