Pascal Perrin has become Chief Operating Officer of URMET FRANCE , having served as the company's Sales Director since 2015. He replaces Philippe Carbuccia who, after 13 years as Chief Operating Officer of URMET France, will now focus exclusively on YOKIS, both in France and internationally, as Development Director.

The URMET Group thus wishes to support the growth of each of its companies and in particular the strong development of the company MTI/YOKIS, acquired by the Group in 2014. These appointments are also an opportunity to increase the complementarity and synergy between the two brands.

URMET FRANCE and YOKIS are firmly established in the French market thanks to their innovative capabilities and the quality of their 'made in France' solutions. Each specializes in its field: intercoms and access control for URMET FRANCE, and digital micromodules for electrical and home automation systems for YOKIS.

The URMET Group in France comprises six companies - URMET France (6), CASTEL (95), MWS (49), FDI Matelec (37), SCS Sentinel (85), MTI Yokis (85 & 83) - and 49 employees. Its consolidated turnover for 350 was €2016 million.

Philippe Mallard explains: " The technological and home automation developments of recent years have driven us to innovate even further in our various business areas. The integration of YOKIS three years ago perfectly aligned with this dynamic. The development of increasingly intelligent and connected solutions proves that we still have significant growth opportunities for each of our brands, and we are delighted to be able to count on two individuals like Pascal Perrin and Philippe Carbuccia, loyal colleagues of the Group, to support this new phase."
