A strong know-how since 1962

Founded in 1962 by Christian de Maillard, Technima France (formerly known as SOPPEC SAS) was initially a Charente-based company whose core business was to elaborate paints, wood maintenance products and varnishes for professional use.

On the eve of the 1990s, the company decided to focus on the design, manufacture and marketing of innovative marking systems in aerosols.

Initially created for forestry marking professionals, Technima France was carried by its patented safety spray cap : the TP cap, and the company soon became very famous and well known in the building and public works world.

After having opened a new logistics and storage site in 2009, 2010 marked a new stage for SOPPEC with a significant increase in its production capacity to support the growth of its domestic and export markets.

Since the summer of 2010, SOPPEC SAS (now called Technima France) doubled the production capacity of the Nersac site in Charente and created a new entity :the Technima Group.

Its race for innovation enabled the company to win the 2014 "Paris Aerosol & Dispensing Awards", which recognizes companies that promote technological innovations in aerosol packaging.

In 2020, Technima Group adopts a new brand identity, and Soppec SAS becomes Technima France. 

The SOPPEC product brand still remains.
