What decomatic does

decomatic is a French industrial printer founded in 1956, headquartered in La Verpillière, specializing in customized labels, stretch and shrink sleeves, neck labels, medical sample envelopes, and tamper-evident secure pouches. The company operates an integrated production chain spanning prepress, solvent-free flexographic engraving (DuPont Cyrel Digital Imager), digital and flexographic printing on paper, PP, PE, PVC, PET, and PLA substrates, lamination, transformation, and sleeve-application support. Products carry sector-specific certifications including UN3373 and P650 for medical transport, BS 5609 for chemical labeling, La Poste declared-value approval, and DGFIP public-treasury compatibility, and incorporate smart-packaging features (QR, NFC, RFID, AR) through a third-party technology partner.

The company serves eight verticals: automotive and lubricants, gas, specialty chemicals, plant protection, parapharmaceutical and cosmetics, medical, banking and cash, and food. Named enterprise customers include BASF, Total, DuPont, Sika, Nufarm, Ecolab, Sealed Air, La Poste, Banque Populaire, Antargaz, CHU Saint-Étienne, and STC Nutrition. The business model combines a direct field-sales motion for custom/specification products with a WooCommerce online shop for standard stock items (€0.17–€1.82/unit, 96-hour delivery). Pricing is per-unit with volume discounts of up to ~83% at 1,000+ units, and consulting/design/prepress services are embedded in custom orders.

Since February 2023, decomatic has operated as part of Stratus Packaging Group, a combined entity reporting nearly €90 million in revenue and 460 employees across 8 production sites in France and Switzerland. Jean-Luc Allègre remains CEO of decomatic, while Isidore Leiser leads the parent group. The company holds AFNOR RSE certification (since 2018), EcoVadis rating (since 2021), and Imprim'vert accreditation, and markets its "Made in France" manufacturing and eco-designed (bio-based, recycled) product lines as differentiators.
