MACC

What MACC does

MACC S.A. is a French designer, manufacturer, and direct seller of tools and equipment for the construction industry, headquartered in Châtellerault and operating since 1946. Its catalog spans step ladders and extension ladders (PROMAC ALU, PROMAC ACIER, ECHELLES CN, ECHELLES TR, SCARABEE ALU/ACIER, ESCAMAC 2, SCALIMAC 3), mobile and fixed scaffolding (SKYMAC, KIWI, STABIMAC, TELESPLAN), material handling equipment (BOB, D5, LUGE, PLI & GO, MINILEVE, PANOMAC 2, COLIBRI, BROUETTES), modular storage and van organization systems (MODULRACK, MODULMAC, SUPER MODULMAC, MAX, MAMBO, SHERPA, SERVANTE COMPACTE, TOP SERVANTE), drywall and plaster installation tools (LEVPLAC 3, LEVPLAC S, LEVMAC 2), electrical accessories (DEVIMAC, SPIRAL, ALIMACC), painting preparation tools (TIPTAP, PAPILLON 2, ORIGAMI, PAINTBOX, RADIALAC), site protection (TAPIMAC, LISSMAC, PROTECMAC), workwear (BERMUDA MACC 2, PANTALON MACC 2, GILET MACC 2, PARKA MACC 2, CHAUSSURES BASSES 2, CHAUSSURES GROS OEUVRE 2), and specialized trade tools for eight professional personas — roofers, electricians, masons, carpenters, painters, plasterers, plumbers, and locksmiths.

Underlying technology centers on aluminum and galvanized-steel fabrication, with multiple patented mechanisms (ECHELLES TR articulation, TIPTAP 2-in-1 design, TOP SERVANTE pedal-actuated height adjustment, TAPIMAC anti-shock protection) and conformance to European standards including EN 131 (ladders), EN 14183 (steps), EN 1004-1 (scaffolding, NF-certified by AFNOR), EN 14404 (knee protection), EN 343 (rainwear), and EN 61242 (cord reels). Manufacturing is conducted in-house in France ("fabrication de proximité") using an in-house design bureau ("bureau d'études") that solicits product ideas directly from end users via the "Innover ensemble" portal.

MACC generates revenue through hardware sales of physical products via its own direct e-commerce platform (extranet.macc.eu), supported by country-localized storefronts for France, Spain, Italy, Belgium (FR/DE/NL), Netherlands, Luxembourg, and the United Kingdom. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; buyers access pricing through an account login or by contacting the sales team. The company also operates an Agri MACC sub-brand targeting agricultural equipment. The only disclosed capital event in the record is an April 2011 round with CM-CIC Capital Finance and Crédit Mutuel Equity; no revenue, headcount, or growth figures are publicly available, and ownership is private with no disclosed parent or institutional investor.
