and key dates

The story of the Etudes et Constructions Electromécaniques (ECE) company, an SME based in the French department of Haute-Vienne (87), goes back to 1968.

Specialised in the ventilation and dedusting of mines, tunnels and underground facilities, Cogemacoustic® offers you a wealth of experience for the identification and analysis of your needs.

All our preliminary engineering, terms of reference or expert missions are guided by one goal: follow the latest recommendations in terms of workers’ safety, working conditions and noise pollution.

For standard or made-to-measure ventilation solutions, our engineers are consistently striving to seek and develop new solutions and to always better adapt them to your specific needs.

It was bought in September 1987 by Robert ORIEZ, who integrated it to his SORGAFRA holding. He decided to redirect the company’s business towards the study and the manufacturing of special industrial equipments. And thus ECE became a designer and manufacturer of special purpose machines. The SORGAFRA Group provided itself with the means to successfully implement this innovative and proactive development policy, by investing extensively.

The SORGAFRA Group started offering its customers a complete range of diversified mechanical services (robotic special structures, mechanical subcontracting…).
