The siting of Altus Coating’s operations in the heart of the Jura region, at Courlaoux in its adopted home of Franche-Comté, is simultaneously guided by a decision by the family and by its immediate proximity to the ‘plastics valley’ (Oyonnax) particularly appreciated by manufacturing actors in the cosmetics sector, to the major city of Lyon and its services, and to neighboring Switzerland and its manufacturers.
The Jura Region, a Land of Connections
Burgundy-Franche Comté, a Region of Innovation and Expansion
The site at Courlaoux where Altus Coating has invested in 2,000 m2 – to bring its R&D laboratory together in 2014 with an increased production and storage capacity and with its offices – is a genuine opportunity for development: It offers scope to expand the buildings, given the reserve of land available, and….it also serves as land on which to accommodate its beehives.
The Chamber of Commerce and Industry for Burgundy–Franche Comté has recognized Altus Coating as one of the businesses with potential in its region, by supporting it from the start on its pathway of Corporate Social and Environmental Responsibility, and Burgundy-Franche-Comté Region awarded it their CSR Trophy in February 2021.
