History of ARDEC industries<\/h2>\n

The story of ARDEC industries is one of know-how handed down and enriched over almost 90 years. From a bar-turning workshop founded in the Jura region to a multi-site industrial group, each step has helped forge our identity: technical excellence, local roots and the ability to adapt to changes in the industry. <\/p>\n <\/div>\n

The creation of D\u00e9colletage Jurassien<\/h3>\n

The history of ARDEC industries began in 1938 with the creation of D\u00e9colletage Jurassien (LDJ) in Sirod. As the group’s founding site, LDJ gradually built up its know-how in precision screw-machining, becoming a recognized industrial player over the decades. In 1994, the company embarked on a trans-generational transfer project to its management team, consolidating its territorial roots and the continuity of its expertise. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

From a single site to an industrial group<\/h3>\n

1998 marks a turning point with the first ISO 9001 certification and the creation of the holding company ARDEC Metal Group, which initiates the structuring of the group as it exists today. In 2000, LDJ moves into its new building in Champagnole, where it develops a modern machine park, including CNC lathes and CNC Index multi-spindle lathes. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n

A European reference<\/h3>\n

These investments enable the site to specialize in high-volume stainless steel screw machining, a know-how that will make LDJ a European benchmark. At the same time, the Group begins a strategic diversification into new markets: aeronautical, medical and pharmaceutical, with a continuous reinforcement of its technical and documentary skills. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
