What Servinox does
Servinox is a privately-held French industrial equipment manufacturer founded in 1966 in Trappes (Yvelines, greater Paris) by a master brewer seeking to optimize his own production. Operating as a Société par Actions Simplifiée (SAS) with approximately 35 employees and roughly €8 million in annual revenue (~50% from export), the company designs and manufactures stainless-steel hygienic process equipment for tanks and pipelines, sold under four product families: Efficiency & Environment (XSR scraping systems, RVO speed regulators, multi-way valves LPA/LRA/LPAH cleaning valves, RT powder-introduction valves, FH inline filters), Safety & Protection (BOG, BOGV, HSV-A, BOT, SHP pressure/vacuum/thermal-shock safety valves), Quality & Traceability (membrane-based PEMS/PEMA/PEML/PEMC/PESH/PEVL sampling valves), and Brewing & Process Know-How (XCHE vents, BOMB bondonneurs, XAEK carbonation system, AE saturators, BO bondonnage apparatus, XFI gas filtration, XLA coupling systems).
The company sells custom-engineered, 3D-planned, quotation-priced equipment certified to a dense international stack of standards (ISO 14001, DESP 2014/68/EU, 3-A 58-01, ATEX, FDA, USP, CE, ASME, CRN, EAC), supported by proprietary sizing and simulation tools (thermal-shock validation, washing-jet studies, pipeline pressure loss, Eco-Calculator ROI tool co-developed with Altermaker, DESP classification tools). Its go-to-market is a hybrid direct/indirect model: a technico-commercial team based at the Trappes headquarters handles domestic French enterprise sales while over 20 regional distributors across Europe, Americas, Asia, Africa, and Oceania handle international accounts, supplemented by two Area Managers (Christophe Bornet-Morienne for Indian Ocean; Kevin Daboval for African development) and on-site training, maintenance, spare parts, and audit services.
Servinox's primary verticals are Agroalimentaire (Food & Beverage — dairy, confectionery, sauces, beverages, pet food, edible oils), Brasserie (Brewery — fermentation, filtration, carbonation), Cosmétique & Pharma (gels, shampoos, actives, syrups, perfumes), Chimie verte & Biotech (biofuels, enzymes, ethanol), and Chimie (chemicals, polymers, paints). The customer base includes large multinational industrials such as Danone, Nestlé, Nestlé Purina, Lactalis, Andros, Häagen-Dazs, Lindt, Bonduelle, Bel Group, Mars, Mondelez, Cargill, Roquette, Heineken, Moët & Chandon, Hennessy, Refresco, Chobani, L'Oréal, Unilever, Colgate-Palmolive, Lesaffre, Galderma, Boehringer Ingelheim, Merck, Veolia, BWT, BASF, Dow, TotalEnergies, and BP. Revenue is generated across four streams: industrial equipment sales (hardware), spare parts and replacement components (hardware), maintenance and on-site repair services (professional services), and customizable training plus technical support (professional services), with multi-year contract billing and aftermarket-services revenue constituting the recurring base.
