What is established and what is not

No researcher review has been written for this company yet. 18 official records from 13 official sources are on file. 5 other entries are not official records: our own technical checks and searches, open directory listings, our inferences or the company's own statements. Everything is listed below with its evidence type: each entry confirms only what it literally says; none of them is a review. The manufacturing role above rests on the official records listed below, and only as far as each literally goes: a facility registration or licence is not an observation of current production. Nothing here confirms ownership or trading status beyond what each record literally says.

Facts on file, each with its evidence type

First recorded on the web archive (record type: web-presence-since) [our own observation, not an official record; status green] The company website was already online in 2000. Shows a web archive saw a page at this address on that date. It does not show who ran the site then. checked 2026-08-20. Internet Archive (Wayback)
No match found on the sanctions lists we checked (record type: sanctions-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; name search, no matching candidate] We searched the public sanctions datasets and found no matching candidate. A name search is not full compliance screening. checked 2026-08-16. OpenSanctions
No match found in the debarment registers we checked (record type: debarment-clear) [our own observation, not an official record; name search, no matching candidate] We searched the public debarment datasets and found no matching candidate.

An environmental inspector visited the plant, on the official record (record type: facility-inspected) [official record; status green] Inspected 2025-11-19.

Georisques, French register of classified installations (ICPE)
Street address on file in the state register (record type: registered-address) [official record; status green] The address the company itself gave the register, so post and inspectors reach it there. checked 2026-08-10. INSEE Sirene (annuaire-entreprises)

Places goods on the market (national producer register) (record type: places-goods-on-market; this record does not by itself establish manufacturing) [official record; status green] A state register lists this company as placing these goods on the market, as their maker or importer.

Takes part in public tenders (record type: public-contract-awarded) [official record; status green] 8 public contracts on record, the latest awarded 2026-01-27. A public buyer selected this supplier through an official tender. Open the source for the contracts themselves. effective since 2026-01-27. TED (Tenders Electronic Daily), EU public procurement award notices Here the award carries someone else's check: in the EU and the EEA a public buyer must exclude bidders convicted of fraud, corruption or money laundering, and those found by a final decision to owe taxes or social contributions. That check applied to this tender on the date of the award: it does not show the company's situation today, and winning a contract does not show that it was carried out. Directive 2014/24/EU, Article 57 (exclusion grounds)
EU VAT number valid for cross-border trade (record type: vat-valid) [official record; status green] The number is registered and active: we asked the EU VIES service and it answered yes.
