What SCCM ALP does

SCCM ALP is a privately held French industrial equipment designer and manufacturer headquartered in Cognin, near Chambéry, operating from a single 2,262 m2 manufacturing site with 30-tonne bridge cranes and integrated engineering, fabrication, and COFREND Level 2 non-destructive testing capabilities. The company resulted from the merger of SCCM (founded 1931, a Chambéry metallurgical boilermaker) and ALP PROCESS (founded 1976, an industrial engineering and integration firm), giving it more than 90 years of combined heritage in water-cooled mechanical equipment and turnkey flue gas treatment systems. Its core offering spans water-cooled panels, vaults, elbows, and converter hoods for electric arc and ladle furnaces; dry flue gas treatment installations for waste incinerators including sodium bicarbonate and activated carbon grinding and injection; and bulk material handling systems covering transport, volumetric dosing, and silo storage. The company also acts as the official French distributor for STANELLE silo/automation equipment and OFFICINA 2000 industrial mills.

Technically, SCCM ALP combines proprietary engineering assets — a computerized cooling water distribution calculation program, finite-element-based ANSYS STRUCTURAL optimization of ladle hooks (including titanium alloys), thermofluidic simulation with SolidWorks, CFX, and ANSYS, and a CO post-combustion system with sliding-sleeve furnace elbow — with in-house boilermaking, TIG/MIG/MAG welding, Inconel hardfacing, tube and sheet forming, and COFREND-certified penetrant testing. Revenue is generated through three streams: (1) project-based custom equipment manufacturing and engineering services for steel mills and waste incinerators, priced ex-works via quote-based contracts; (2) sale of industrial grinders and powder processing hardware; and (3) distribution of STANELLE silo and automation equipment in France. The company pursues a sales-led, direct enterprise go-to-market anchored in a 7-language website, trade fair participation (METEC 2023), newsletter capture, and project inquiry forms, serving steelmakers (ArcelorMittal group, Aperam, Industeel, British Steel, Ascometal, Belval, Ugitech, Aubertduval, Winoa, Ferropem), water and environmental operators (Veolia, OTV, Vinci Environnement, CNIM), energy and district heating (Dalkia), and construction materials (Lafarge, Chryso). Guillaume PASQUIER serves as Director of the company, which is registered as a Société par Actions Simplifiée with €224,000 share capital.

Comparable scope on water-cooled furnace elements and dedusting, but at turnkey EPC scale far larger than SCCM ALP.
• Bühler Group: Swiss process solutions provider for food, feed and advanced materials, with strong grinding, dosing, conveying and silo systems. Comparable on the bulk-handling (grinders, dosing, silos, transport) product arm of SCCM ALP—particularly the OFFICINA 2000 and STANELLE offerings.
• Andritz: Austrian industrial group with a dedicated 'Environment & Energy' / dry and wet flue-gas treatment business serving waste-to-energy plants. Comparable to SCCM ALP's waste-incinerator dry treatment and reagent injection offerings, but at corporate scale.

Direct peers

• CECO Environmental: US-listed provider of industrial air-quality and fluid-handling solutions including dust collection, fume extraction and industrial filtration for metals and waste-to-energy. Highly comparable in industrial fume/dust collection and air-purifying equipment niche.
• Hosokawa Micron: Specialist in industrial milling, classification and particle processing for chemicals and minerals. Comparable on the sodium-bicarbonate grinding / industrial mill product family used in SCCM ALP's dry flue-gas treatment offering.
• Clyde Bergemann (now part of Babcock Power): Specialist in heat-transfer, ash-handling and flue-gas treatment equipment for power and waste-to-energy plants. Comparable niche to SCCM ALP's water-cooled thermal components and dry flue-gas treatment systems.
