About Cornilleau
In 1946, Emile Cornilleau, a skilled cabinetmaker, left Paris in search of a better quality of life for his family. Settling in Bonneuil-les-Eaux, France, he established a small carpentry workshop. A defining moment came in 1969 when the Parisian department store BHV placed an urgent order for 300 table tennis tables. Rising to the challenge, Cornilleau transformed from a local woodworking business into a pioneering manufacturer.
In the 1980s, Cornilleau revolutionised the game by introducing the first weatherproof outdoor table tennis tables, making the sport accessible to families across Europe. Today, the company is one of Europe’s leading brands for outdoor table tennis and has expanded into premium multi-functional games tables, including convertible dining and outdoor pool tables.
With a deep commitment to innovation, craftsmanship, and sustainability, Cornilleau continues to design and manufacture its products in France, blending tradition with cutting-edge technology to create exceptional playing experiences worldwide.
