The company does not make grade 10 chain, because of the lack of European standard, Barnagaud said. “For the moment, honestly, business in 8 is good, especially due to the fact we are increasing export market share.”
Barnagaud did not say what percent of the chain is for lifting. The company also supplies chain to the lifting industry, as well as to fishing, agriculture and warehouse access. The firm, owned by the Bonhomme family, employs 70 people in Bellac, France.
