ABOUT US

The SOPREMA Group has been developing and diversifying its activities, worldwide, by including, over the years, additional operations to its traditional trade, waterprooﬁng. By becoming the world leader in waterprooﬁng solutions, the group is today a key player in the construction sector.

SOPREMA was created in 1908 as an independent family group by Charles Geisen whose great-grandson, Pierre-Etienne Bindschedler, is now at the head of the company. Today we are rolling out millions of square metres of waterproofing, insulating and roofing material. As a result, SOPREMA claims a world-leading position in the design and manufacture of waterproofing solutions as well as roofing materials, sound and thermal insulation.

Today, SOPREMA operates all around the world with 123 manufacturing plants and more than 120 subsidiaries.
