What Ecler does
Ecler is a Barcelona-based designer and manufacturer of professional audio and video solutions, founded in 1965 and operating privately with 51–100 employees. The company sells a full-stack AV ecosystem spanning amplifiers (VIDA, DARA, AURA, HADA, HSA series), loudspeakers (ceiling NIC/IC, pendant GLOBE/CUBE/TUBE, column MIA, outdoor eMOTUS, subwoofer EDGE, in-ground IG), wireless pro audio (WiSpeak and the newer WiLD system with up to 150m range and 32 receivers per transmitter), digital matrixes and processors (MIMO, VIVO, BIO, HUB, ALMA series with Dante/AES67 support), installation mixers (SAMI, eCOMPACT4BT), audio players (PLAYER ONE/ZERO with DLNA, AirPlay, and Ecler Gallery management), video hardware (VEO switchers, matrices, splitters, THIA video-over-IP, extenders), and wall/desktop control interfaces (WPNETTOUCH, PULSO, PAGENETDN, WPa series). Software platforms — EclerNet Manager, EclerCLOUD, Ecler Gallery, Ecler VIDA App, and the 2025-launched EclerPLEX AVC platform (Best of Show at ISE 2026) — unify device configuration, remote monitoring, and control, with EclerTRAINING providing installer certification.
Ecler serves seven primary verticals — retail, hospitality, education, corporate, sports and wellness, leisure, and houses of worship — across more than 70 countries. Anchor enterprise deployments include MANGO (1,500 stores), Stradivarius (1,200 stores), Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Dior, Apple, Nike, Zara, H&M, Marriott, and a 2024 strategic supplier appointment with Meliá Hotels International; the Sennheiser co-integration (VEO-SWC45 + TeamConnect Bar) extends reach into conferencing.
Revenue is generated primarily through hardware sales via a tri-channel motion: direct sales supported by an engineering-at-your-service project design team, channel partners and distributors (Brown & Company in South Korea, AUX Import in the UK, plus regional partners), and system integrators for installation. Recurring-adjacent revenue comes from bundled software (EclerCLOUD, Ecler Gallery, mobile apps) and engineering services. The company is ISO 14001 certified, has been headquartered and manufacturing in Barcelona for 60 years, and prices through distributor and integrator channels rather than publishing list prices.
