Ami Bois, the benchmark for wooden houses in Toulouse continues to grow
Indispensable reference in the construction sector detached timber frame houses, Friend Wood has been based in Toulouse since 2005. It is now agencies everywhere in France and eight in Occitania. By offering fully customizable house models, Ami Bois allows you to compose the house that suits you.
And according to the founder of Ami Bois Frédéric Carteret, the sector is booming and it’s not over. “This is the sector of the future for house construction because we need to decarbonize the act of building. Today, construction represents 17% of greenhouse gas emissions. We are the first generation to be aware of it. We are really the last generation to be able to act on it. Today, this represents approximately 10% of the number of houses that are built in France in wood. Within the next ten years, we hope really reach 30 to 40%.
Ami Bois is opening an agency in Metz and Vannes. And in the Occitanie region, the company is opening an agency in Cahors.
Ami Bois has also launched its brand Renov Evolution, as a specialist in wood extension and wood elevation. The Ami Bois Group thus provides a response to a new mass market: that of the renovation of houses built since 1971, ie a potential of approximately 9 million buildings concerned. “With the scarcity of land available in urban areas and the need to densify urbanization in these tense areas, we realize that raising and extending existing buildings is a solution”, indicates Frédéric Carteret.
