HISTORY
Established in 1927, Reverchon is a family business specialising in the construction of attractions.
Today, it is the largest French company in the field of care-go-round manufacturing. After the creation of the company and the manufacture of self-scooters and transportable forage rides, Reverchon decided to devote himself mainly to water attractions and roller coasters for almost 50 years, strongly marking the industry.
Reverchon is known for her outstanding contributions, being one of the pioneers in the construction of the Flume merry-go-round and the inventor of the Spinning Coaster, which has even become a generic term used in the industry.
With more than 300 of these attractions sold worldwide, our attractions are available in park and mobile versions.
Since its inception, Reverchon has installed more than 3,000 attractions around the world, delighting visitors, young and old, for almost a century.
Reverchon’s strength and reputation is based on several fundamentals, including the customization of attractions to meet the needs of each customer, a long-standing customer relationship across generations, as well as unfailing attention to the quality and sustainability of our attractions. The company is based in Samois sur Seine.
