HomeAbout Norsud OUR STORY For more than 50 years, Norsud has been a leader in the French market for industrial closures and dock equipment. In late 2013, Norsud acquired GPsystems, a company specialising in transhipment platform safety. In 1989, a fatal accident occurred on a loading dock involving a neighbouring company of GPsystems. Struck by the seriousness of this case, Mr Glomot and Mr Penot joined forces and developed a system which reduces the risk of lorries accidentally leaving docks (the cause of this accident). The two trained engineers soon set three objectives for this system: efficiency, simplicity and robustness. To meet their goals, they adopted the solution of a system buried in the ground. The first version of Calematic® was set up now nearly 27 years ago. Several patents have been filed as the system has been improved. Note that the first chocks installed are still operational. A universal solution, Calematic® has been fitted in several countries. GPsystems merged with Norsud in early 2019 and continues to export Calematic® along with other products through a network of authorised distributors.
