1973

Founded in 1973 to legally incorporate the business developed previously as a private entrepreneur, JULAR – Empreendimentos Urbanos, Lda., started its activity in the sectors related with real estate promotion, building materials and importing of timber from Angola.

 

1982

The growth of the wood business sector, with the regular importing of sawn timber from Brazil and logs from the west coast of Africa, led to the creation of an independent company, JULAR – Importação e Comércio de Madeiras, Lda., in 1982.

 

1986

Placed, from the very beginning, as a privileged supplier of the carpentry and furniture industries, Jular began, in 1986, to build new facilities at Azambuja where an industrial unit comprising sawing, drying and transformation of exotic wood would be implemented.

 

1990

The production of floors and profiles began in 1990, responding in this way to the increasing demand from the building industry market. From then on, the range of products offered by Jular has increased vertiginously. With wood as the common denominator, soon would be available decorative doors, door and casing lining preassembled kits, laminated and engineered floors, wood structures, boards and panels, metallic conectors, etc.
