Frédérique and Pierre Chaumont have recently decided to enter another phase in the growth of their company. Now, besides continuing to serve the entire western region of La Gironde from Bordeaux to Arcachon, they will also be looking after business in the eastern region of the Department.
Techno Pieux Arcachon has been active since 2008 and has done a number of projects providing top quality service for their customers. Without any doubt, private, construction and professional users in the 33rd Department will benefit from the Techno Metal Post set-up, especially with the addition of new Techno Metal Post team of installers in the region.
A New Dealer in Wisconsin
Techno Pieux would like to congratulate Joe Orendorf, new owner of Techno Metal Post SE Wisconsin, LLC. His extensive experience in the field of home construction quickly showed him the enormous potential of the Techno Pieux product.
After several meetings and talks with Serge Larouche, head of development in the U.S., Mr. Orendorf recently visited our factories and met with the Techno Pieux team, reaffirming his decision to join this network of over 120 dealers.
“Wisconsin is a key state in our development strategy; it now lets us be a presence in the Great Lakes area. Our entire team is proud to have a man with Mr. Orendorf’s great experience in our ranks” Serge Larouche stated.

The new dealers emphasized that their meeting with the home office team at Thetford Mines was a great success, confirming their decision to become associated with the Techno Metal Post certified installer network.
The executive team was pleasantly surprised by the considerable trust and professionalism demonstrated by the newly incorporated members. The significant foundation of technical and multidisciplinary knowledge they bring with them represents added value that will benefit the entire network.
The incorporation of these four dealerships is a concrete example of the solid growth of the Techno Pieux network in the rest of Canada.
Activity in France
Two new concessions are being set up in Europe on French soil. We are pleased to welcome Techno Pieux Sud-Seine, our new dealer in northern France, along with Techno Pieux Nantes Nord, managed by already-established dealers.
Sylvain Jirot and Jerome Eliot are anxiously awaiting the arrival of their new machinery so that work can begin. “At sites where concrete solution are often difficult and/or expensive to implement, helical piers provide the answer for a fair number of problematic situations; added to this is the simplicity of the procedure and especially the fact that it has a positive technical assessment that allows us to comply with the French standards and regulations”.
Brothers Olivier and Marc Le Bigot are the owners of Techno Pieux Rennes-Vannes and Techno Pieux Le Mans-Tours. On the heels of their concessions’ clear success it was natural for them to open Techno Pieux Nantes Nord since geographically this area is located between their first two concessions inaugurated at the beginning of 2013.

The advent of these two dealers once more confirms that Techno Metal Post is the number one choice in the helical pier industry.
Techno Metal Post in South America
With great joy and pride, Techno Metal Post announces the creation of the first concession in South America. Martin Laberge and his wife Laurence Perez have decided to take on the challenge of developing the first territory on the South American continent by inaugurating a concession in French Guyana, a French territory located on the Brazilian border.
“We have now had the chance to study a number of geo-technical reports that mention the famous Guyana coastline with soil that has limited weight-bearing capacity on the surface thereby making it difficult to construct buildings for a reasonable cost since practically on a regular basis deep foundations are required or the soil must be replaced. Besides its exotic beauty and equatorial climate, Guyana is first and foremost an area that can be developed: anything is possible for those who are willing to work hard, with a serious, bold approach and with a good dose of realism and creativity.
The growth of this small economy is the result of the confrontation between two exceptional dynamics: its strong economic expansion and one of the healthiest rates of demographic growth in the world,” says Laurence Perez.

The first step on a continent that has a lot to offer. New projects in new conditions: this is a challenge that Techno Pieux can successfully undertake.
Annual Meeting – Europe
On May 30 & 31st, all European dealers were brought together under one roof, at Techno Metal Posts’ annual meeting, in Amiens (France).
Its purpose was to inform the dealers on recent technological developments and promotional tools. The event was well received, and allowed us to see the ongoing drive the dealers bring to our network. All of them took the opportunity to exchange tips and suggestions, as well as discuss their most recent achievements.
A note-worthy mention, was the commemoration of the business’s 20 years in the industry; Techno Metal Post was started in 1993 by Clément Binet and Daniel Thivierge. In 2003, TMP installed its first helical pier on European soil, and today the company has 115 dealers in nine countries. Presently accredited in Canada and France, and newly certified in the U.S. in 2013, Thetford Mines has clearly become a world leader in screw pile foundations.

From Coast to Coast
Good news continue to arrive as the year unfolds: two new dealers in Canada have joined the Techno Metal Post team.
Mike Smith is the new owner of Techno Metal Post Cariboo, located in Quesnel, British Columbia. Smith had the opportunity to get to know Techno Metal Posts’ pier system through his work in the construction industry. When he realized what enormous potential and quality the product had, he did not think twice about approaching Techno Metal Post to secure a dealership.
Daniel Hubert worked in the housing construction and renovation sector in Newfoundland. He discovered Techno Metal Post while looking for an alternative solution to concrete foundations for his clients. During his tour of company headquarters, Daniel expressed surprise over the warm reception offered him by the team and the scope of its operations. Following this visit, he began to prepare an application to secure a dealership in Newfoundland, which was granted him in May of this year.

These two new dealers once again confirm that Techno Metal Post continues to be the number one choice in the helical pier industry from coast to coast.
Web Site – New Spanish Version
Techno Metal Post is pleased to announce, that we’ve just added a Spanish version to our website! In response to the many requests from south U.S., Central and South America, TMP has decided to translate its website to serve the Spanish community.
To further develop its operations in Spain, which already has established dealers, this was a necessary and important step to take.
What’s to follow? Perhaps a Swedish, Portuguese or even Japanese version of the site? Yet more proof, that Techno Metal Post continues to grow on a worldwide scale.
New dealers in Ontario, Canada: Techno Metal Post Kawartha
The Techno Metal Post family has expanded once again with the arrival of Techno Metal Post Kawartha. TMP Kawartha covers the Haliburton-Kawartha, Peterborough and Northumberland-Quinte West regions. Shawn Taylor has experience in construction / renovation.
