Our History

In July 1995, Laurent THOMIR, then 25 years old, founded ATELIER 3T, a small company specializing in the manufacture of agricultural equipment, such as the Bmv Grass Pick-Up for forage harvesters and the SILO FARMER silage straw spreaders.

In 1999, with about twenty employees, the company expanded its facility to 3,100 m² and invested in laser cutting machines, machining, and robotic welding, aiming to become a fully integrated mechanical welding manufacturer.

To broaden its customer base, the company diversified in 2001 into the sectors of machine tools, naval, handling, and urban furniture.

To meet growing demand, the company built a second 2,200 m² facility in 2004, "A3Découpe," operational in March 2005, dedicated to cutting, laser cutting, and machining activities.

In September 2005, after producing numerous livestock equipment, the company exited the agricultural sector to create its own range of equipment under the AGRISPHERE® brand.

In 2008, after the bankruptcy of its first client, Laurent THOMIR acquired the Bmv name and resumed the production of the Grass Pick-Up, ATELIER 3T's first product.

In 2018, the company diversified its activities by creating garden landscaping products under the Ô DEcos® brand.

On July 6, 2021, an accidental fire destroyed a third of the facility and production tools. Thanks to the firefighters' efforts and the dedication of the employees, operations resumed within 72 hours. The full reconstruction took a year.

Alongside the reconstruction, the company increased its production capacity with a new 3,200 m² building dedicated to painting and assembly of parts.

In October 2023, the company inaugurated the "ESPACE LAQUAGE" site, a modern and eco-friendly facility specializing in surface treatment and painting of steel and aluminum.
