The French subsidiary JMPV doubles its production to 800 m².
After merely five months of construction, the new workshop expansion and new office complex for the French subsidiary in the JOEST group was finalized in January 2020. Alongside the new buildings, the existing structures were also optimized.
Construction started in late May, 2019 at the facility in La Couronne, France. The new 54 m² office building that is replacing the existing, 20 year old office bungalow is part of the 520.000€ investment. The 400 m² steel workshop expansion is equipped with a 12.5 t crane. The entire workshop area now covers 800 m². The old workshop was supplemented by an intermediate ceiling, making room for a kitchen and additional toilets for the employees.
In order to heat the workshop efficiently, a new heating system was installed. The so called dark radiators are very energy efficient and cause only little condensation. All lights inside and outside the facility were upgraded to LEDs. In January 2020, the new asphalt driveways were paved. They are now suitable for heavy-duty vehicles. Furthermore, the entire property was fenced.
The JOEST Subsidiary was founded in 2006 and managed by Armin Krey. The company is mainly focused on vibrating screens, feeders, spiral elevators, MUCKI® lifting and tipping devices. These machines are for the Primary and Secondary Raw Materials, Chemistry, Food and Thermal Processing Industries.
The facility expansion and investment in France is of great importance to the international market. Establishments on all continents enable JOEST to globally offer the technology and service it is known for and to meet international demands and expectations.

In conventional exciters, the bearings are lubricated by oil mist. The gears inside the housing churn the oil into fine droplets, which are distributed within the gearbox. Only a portion of these droplets reaches the rolling bearings and provide the lubrication. Some housings have oil collection pockets on the inside. These are intended to guide the oil along the inner surfaces of the housing downwards into the bearings. However, the entry of oil into the bearings is random and the quantity is undetermined. To improve the entire lubrication, the JOEST Oil Management System has been developed.
2024 was a special year in many ways for our continuously growing JOEST group. To start, we completed the largest acquisition in our company‘s history at the turn of the year with the purchase of the MOGENSEN Group and its locations in Germany, Spain and Sweden.
Yesterday was the day: our traditional #JOESTeam Day Christmas 2024 took place, and it was an evening we will all remember. Amidst the magical, Christmas-lit backdrop of Dülmen’s market square, we came together to bring the year to a close. The ice rink, which was all ours that evening, provided the perfect stage for an exciting and entertaining curling tournament.
