Discover Jambette
About us
Jambette was founded in 1983 by Claude Caron, Guy Caron and Richard Boucher when they decided to set up a small manufacture of playground equipment and site furniture. Made from wood, their creations quickly won over a number of customers thanks to their new-look aesthetics, sturdiness and safety. In just a few years, Jambette became a leader in its field.
