The Group POMA recently carried out a comprehensive turnkey inspection on the “Liaison Blanc-Blanc” at the CEA Grenoble , facility that is unique in the world and lies at the heart of a centre of scientific excellence. The “Liaison Blanc-Blanc” is more than a classic funicular, it is moving miniature cleanroom, certified ISO 6, that links two the CEA’s controlled-environment areas in Grenoble, over a distance of 250 metres. Automated and designed for extreme docking precision, it functions on demand like an elevator, and moves up to 12 scientists and their ultra-sensitive microelectronic components softly at 5m/s, from one cleanroom to the other.

This installation perfectly showcases POMA’s expertise in terms of complex equipments overhaul, distinguishing the company from its competitors.

During the 6 weeks of planning, 7 weeks of work and 3 weeks of reconciliation, 40 collaborators have worked. The installation has been entirely dismantled, the cabin has been revised, the chassis was sandblasted and repainted following an inspection while the equipments (pulleys, rollers…) were controlled and refurbished. In the same time, structural inspections were carried out on site.

The success of this operation hinges on the Group’s teams working together seamlessly: POMA Mont-Blanc for electrical operations and tests, COMAG for the dismantling, the controls and the factory and on-site reassembly, POMA Savoie for the sandblasting and painting, as well as SIGMA for the cabin’s overhaul.

The infrastructure was brought back into operation on schedule, the client was fully satisfied and a successful safety audit was carried out during the works. This is a fine demonstration of the teams’ professionalism and commitment.

Thanks to the CEA for its trust, supporting an essential function for their operations.

Congratulations to all the teams involved, as well as to our partners COPRETEC, Cabinet Eric and RMC Contrôles.

Exclusively unveiled at Mountain Planet 2026, PURE embodies a new approach to cable transport, where design and engineering go hand in hand.

Drawing on 90 years of French expertise, PURE is the latest addition to the LIFE range, a new generation of ropeways, designed for performance, durability and quality. More than a new product, this cabin affirms a vision : a more human, elegant, warm and accessible cable mobility.

Pure follows POMA’s historical continuity, reinterpreting the iconic SP4 “egg” cabin, created in 1996. Its distinctive and refined oval shape builds on this heritage while meeting the needs of modern life, whether in the mountains or in an urban setting.

The Mountain Planet trade show will play host to mountain professionals and urban planners over 3 days, at Alpexpo in Grenoble.

🎉On the occasion of a very special 2026 edition, we invite you to rediscover 90 years of visionary and ambitious POMA ropeway mobility, and to enter into a new decade with innovations exclusively unveiled on Mountain Planet.

And to make sure you don’t miss any of the highlights, conferences and events that will be revealed exclusively at the POMA stand, follow us on social media now.
