Bodet, the No. 1 French bell and clock manufacturer

Bodet Campanaire designs all the components for bell towers in its workshops in Trémentines in the Maine-et-Loire department (49): Belfries, Louvres, Headstock, Bells Although the techniques have changed, the various bell and clock craftsmanship professions still aim to preserve the authenticity of your architectural heritage.

Over the years, Bodet Campanaire has found solutions to the various needs of towns and villages. Electrification of bell ringing enables a harmonious, tuneful sound to be rung out in towns and villages, and above all makes programming of bell ringing very simple.

Access to bells is often very ancient and not usually safety compliant for workers. To secure vertical and horizontal movement, Bodet Campanaire installs gangways and lifelines suited to the configuration of the site to facilitate access to the building.
