Palamatic Process designs industrial machines and production lines incorporating powders, an activity that concerns one out of two plants in the world.
These custom-engineered machines must comply with the specific requirements of powders, the mechanics and automation of which require very high-tech know-how.
Palamatic Process has a real expertise for these difficult and dangerous powders, especially those of an explosive nature.
With sales of almost 20 million euros by 2023 and a workforce of 100, Palamatic Process operates in specific sectors such as agri-food processing, animal nutrition, chemicals, fine chemicals, battery, construction, water treatment and nuclear power.
To support its customers' major investments, Palamatic Process provides a test station in which the company has invested over a million euros.
Palamatic Process's customers are major French and international groups, and the company generates 60% of its sales outside France.
The company continues to expand beyond the European zone, notably by developing its activities in the United States with the opening of its subsidiary Palamatic Process Inc. in Philadelphia in 2017 and in Canada in 2023.
