♦ 50 years of history
Since 1957, when Arsène GAUTHEY founded GAUTHEY p.l.c. the company has never ceased to develop.
Initially working in the electrical engineering field with clients such as the railways, the mines and public works... Our company has always kept abreast of the latest technology.

In 1992, as a result of new and varied market trends, GAUTHEY AUTOMATISMES was set up with the objective of focusing on state-of-the-art technology.
If we look at the economic results, with a doubling of the turnover in 5 years and the significant change from a regional to an international client base, the gamble has certainly paid off.
♦ Location
The head office, administrative offices and workshops of GAUTHEY AUTOMATISMES are all grouped together in Autun, a gallo-roman town full of history, on the borders of the Morvan national park and southern Burgundy. This area is the home of several logistic platforms, clearly indicating the ease of access. Paris and Lyon are only 1 hour 30 mins and 30 mins away, respectively by TGV (high speed train), the main A6 motorway from Paris to Lyon is close by, as is the motorway to the East via Dijon.
But come and see for yourselves - knowing that there will always be a warm welcome for you in our beautiful region - renowned for its good food and fine Burgundy wines.
