What CDA does

CDA (legal name SARL CDA) is a French industrial machinery manufacturer founded in 1991 by Pascal Delrieu and headquartered in Narbonne, France. The company designs, manufactures, and sells filling, capping, and labeling machines — semi-automatic benchtop units (e.g., K-One, K-Dy, Ninette 2) through fully automatic high-throughput systems (K-Net Auto, K-Line S with up to 8 nozzles, Ninon Wrap at 200 pieces/minute) — and integrated monoblocs (E-Fill, E-Fill SW) plus custom complete packaging lines engineered in-house for customers in viticulture and spirits, brewery, agri-food, cosmetics, e-liquids, chemistry, CBD, animal care, paint, parapharmacy, candles, and automotive products. Technically, the machines rely on volumetric or flowmeter dosing, piston or peristaltic pumps, and enclosed (cartérisé) hygienic designs aligned with EHEDG standards, with throughput ranging from roughly 15 to 1,200 bottles/hour depending on configuration.

CDA generates revenue almost entirely from one-time hardware sales of bespoke industrial equipment, priced per quote and contracted under multi-year agreements; pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by configuration, automation level, and customization. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales combined with a heavy international trade show presence, supported by subsidiaries CDA USA and CDA Deutschland, a sales office in Barcelona, and a regional office in Algeria. Customer reach is broad — the company claims more than 10,000 clients across 120 countries (an alternative cited figure puts this at 7,000 clients in 105 countries) — and the named referenceable customers are predominantly SMBs (Les brasseurs de la cité, Maestria, Château du Payre) with one mid-sized cosmetics enterprise (Thalgo). Adjacent wholly-owned subsidiaries CDS (training) and CDU (operations) provide installation, training, and after-sales services, reinforcing the hardware sale with lifecycle support.
