Our activity goes from North to South and East to West, and sometimes goes trough our country borders. AGILBOIS is also present in Guadeloupe in partnership with Technobois, a local company.
Our main export activity is custom-made stairs formworks (a specific sector) EIFFAGE, VINCI, BOUYGUES are among our customers, as well as many independant companies.
1 – LOUVRE Museum, a formwork for an extraordinary monumental staircase in black concrete
AGILBOIS most technical realization.
Succesfull bidder of the building of Islamic Arts Department of Louvre museum, LAINE DELAU (Vinci Group) choose our company for the realization of the formwork for a monumental staircase. This formwork, 14 meters long, 7,55 hight and 2m wide should allows the realization of the undersite and guardrails in one stage and without shuttering holes. In order to obtain the best aspect the concrete was injected by the bottom. There was many constraints due to : delay, size, geometry, precision, finish, and a 27T/m² pressure at the bottom of the formwork. Cause of that, a metallic framework was used.
2 – LOUVRE Palace : three formworks for white concrete staircases, elegance and complexity
Creation of a flight of stairs in north wing of Louvre Palace square yard, on both sides of the Marengo crypt (project realized by LAINE DELAU). Made of white concrete, this stairs go on an twenty-five meters height. Each stair has a variable geometry at each level of the building (Approximately 5m). Gardrails draw a ribbon from the first to the last flight of stairs. The formwork was composed of about 190 components to put together on site. Each one had an item number and we supplied assembly plans.
3 – INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL OF LAUSANNE : staircase formwork
We lately realized an adjustable formwork for spiral concrete staircases with a central landing, one was above the other and both had a different geometry. The finishing needed to be perfect. You can see some plans and pictures of the concrete staircase formwork below. The building ended in July 2014.
4 – BOULAZAC MEDIA LIBRARY : staircase formwork
We are actually realizing a formwork for a special concrete staircase , this one has an oval section and goes on two floors. There is two flight of stairs between each level which follows the oval tallest radius, whereas the conical undersite central landing follow the oval smallest radius. Gardrails are realized on second stage.
5 – Molds for concrete and wood formworks for civil engineering
(We only exceptionnaly export this sort of products)
Wood formworks for civil engineering
We are also present in this domain, realizing wood formworks for bridge piers, dams, and all types of special shuttering on little and medium size projects. Our services begin where industrial shuttering ones stop.
Wood molds for precast concrete industry
Wood molds need a particular attention, they must be concepted in order to :
- optimize time of implementation
- allows a high number of re-use
- give the best concrete finishing
Our know-how in manufacturing wood molds allows us to realize efficient tools who also bring a high-level finishing.
