French Group Cemom Unveils Major Big 5 Plans

Cemom, a French hinge specialist, will be showcasing its innovative products at The Big 5 show which kicks off on November 21 in Dubai, UAE.

Founded in 1977, the Cemom Moatti is a group with a wide range of activities, including production subsidiaries in Poland, Sweden and France.

The group has two main areas of activity: coated abrasives for the furniture industry (Ikea is one of the group’s most prominent partners) and the automotive sector, where its customers are just as prestigious (Renault/Nissan), besides concealed and screw-in hinges. The firm produces more than 50 million hinges each year.

Backed by four decades of experience in the production of hinges and 10 years in the case of concealed hinges, Cemom-Moatti will be at the four-day event in Dubai to introduce two of its latest offerings:

*Estetic 80 for doors weighing between 70 and 80 kg

*Estetic 100 for doors weighing between 100 and 120 kg, tested over 300,000 cycles and fire tested for 60 minutes.

"Our products combine manufacturing simplicity, great robustness, an up-to-date design and highly competitive pricing," said a company spokesman.

"We will be presenting these hinges on our stand at The Big 5 show in Dubai (Business France pavilion), so as to ramp up our presence in this vibrant and highly promising market," he added.

The French hinge specialist exports 60 per cent of its production output to more than 40 countries across the globe. Its key markets are Europe, Eastern Europe, the Middle East (Turkey, Egypt, Jordan, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Qatar), Asia and the Americas.

The Cemom group has factories in France, Poland and Sweden, generating overall turnover of €30 million ($33.5 million).
