Icone Manuvit M 1980 - 2004 : Birth and evolution of the brand

In 1980, in Ferté Macé, MANUVIT was founded by the inventor Charles Lèbre.

 Concerned about the physical hardship involved in handling loads, Charles Lèbre, forerunner in ergonomics, designed and developed many original and innovative concepts to facilitate the handling of all types of loads. His genius and his inventions were recognised several times in the Lepine awards, including once with the President of the Republic's award.

  

Charles Lebre invented the concept of "variable geometry" . It still represents all the EXPERTISE of our brand . Our integrated design office continues to develop and perpetuate the ingenuity of the concept. Patented, our concept has already been able to meet the challenges of handling the simplest to the most complicated . Internationally recognized , our concept is exported on 6 continents : 30% of our customers are located in export.
