Our history

CHRONO Flex has been founded in 1995 in Nantes by several local entrepreneurs who were looking for a solution for their own business.

CHRONO Flex started its business with only one van. The mobile on-site manufacturing and repair service for hydraulic hoses was such a success that CHRONO Flex rapidly set up more mobile units.

Today, CHRONO Flex is the national leader with a fleet of 180 mobile workshops throughout the French territory and pursues its international development.
