Charles Geisen founded the “Alsatian Emulsion Factory,” the precursor to our company. During this time, architects were grappling with the challenge of designing large terraces for private villas, often resorting to costly and unreliable roofing materials such as natural asphalt or coal tar. Recognizing the need for a more effective solution, Geisen established his factory to produce innovative roofing materials that would offer greater durability and affordability. Today, SOPREMA continues to uphold Geisen’s legacy of innovation and excellence, providing high-quality roofing solutions underpinned by decades of expertise and commitment to customer satisfaction. In French, SOPREMA is known as “Usines Alsaciennes d’Émulsions,” paying homage to Alsatian roots and the pioneering spirit that has defined the journey since inception.
