Case Study: LMB Martin Frères achieves business continuity after a fire with Acronis Backup

Acronis Helps LMB Martin Frères Keep Working After a Fire

LMB Martin Frères is a six‑generation woodworking and construction firm in Montilliers, France, employing 35 joiners and carpenters. After a 2017 fire destroyed their offices and all computers, the company needed reliable, encrypted backups (including offsite copies), automated incremental and full image backups, and remote management — needs addressed using Acronis Backup (deployed and managed by systems integrator SBS).

Acronis configured nightly incremental and biweekly full backups of 550 GB onto a 1 TB NAS, with encrypted offsite copies and remote monitoring/restore capabilities. As a result, LMB Martin Frères restored data to new machines and resumed partial operations within days, recovered ERP and historic plans (up to 10 years old), and can now roll back up to two weeks of data — demonstrating clear business continuity and reduced risk thanks to Acronis.
