Unibel was created under the name "La Carbonique" in August 1921 by the Fiévet family to manufacture and sell carbon dioxide. It was listed on the Paris Stock Exchange in the 1940s.
In 1970, as part of a reorganization of family control, La Carbonique transferred its industrial gas business to its sister company, Bel*, which was also listed on the stock exchange, making it the largest shareholder. The gas business was subsequently sold and the Group focused primarily on its cheese business, which is carried out through the Bel* subsidiary.
Today, Unibel is a light structure that is fully dedicated to its role as the holding company of its Group.
