History

• 1939 - Founded:Originally, the company was a sawmill that impregnated electric poles and manufactured floor pavers, delivered throughout Switzerland.

• 1960 - Evolution: As this sawing and impregnation activity began to decline in the 1960s, Mr. Paul BINGGELI, who ran the company until 1986, had to find other outlets and so began to develop a solid wood trading business.

• 1980 - Expansion: In 1980, the wood impregnation plant took off again and became CORABOIS SA, when it was taken over by the BALTESCHWILER group.

• 1986 - Flambeau: In 1986, Mr. Alain TRUCHET took over the management of CORABOIS SA from Mr. Paul BINGGELI, who retired. From 1986 to 2017, Mr. Alain TRUCHET continued to develop the trade in solid, cross-laminated, chipboard and devirated timber of all kinds.

• 2002 - New site: In 2002, thanks to its new

  site in Vernier, the company expanded considerably by increasing its trading capacity.

• 2017 - Current; Mr. Rémy CONDEVAUX, after 27 years with CORABOIS SA, takes over the management of the company in 2017. He further increases the company's trading capacity through the acquisition of modern, computerized machinery.

• 2020 - Showroom: CORABOIS SA has undertaken the fitting out of a 600 M2 showroom on two levels and a 3000 M2 outdoor exhibition area.
