Medical Crispin

What Medical Crispin does

Crispin Médical (legal entity CRISPIN MEDICAL, a French SAS) is a specialized B2B manufacturer and distributor serving licensed pédicures-podologues across metropolitan France. With over 70 years of operating history (founded circa 1951-1954) and headquartered in La Séguinière, the company operates a focused catalog spanning cabinet equipment (examination tables, units, chairs, compressors, micromotors), workshop materials, pedicure instruments, care products, podology materials, orthotic modules (M.S.A, M.P.A, C3M, Crispin), templates, chemistry supplies, and sterilization gear. Three proprietary technology pillars anchor the offering: (1) the Aquasine ionized-water (hypochlorous acid) disinfection line, certified to EN1276, EN1275, and EN14476+A2:2019, offered across manual formats (Aquasine Pro, AquaSpray, Aquacard) and automated systems (AquaHome XXS/L/XL, AquaGun Pro dry fog, AquaDistriStar/Aquadistri dispensers); (2) the Rapido Podia 1064 nm diode therapeutic laser for onychomycosis, warts, and inflammatory pathology; and (3) the Touch Smart Pro 3L Class B autoclave with a 7-minute cycle, USB traceability, and EN 13060 compliance. Adjacent services include custom furniture design/fabrication/installation with 3D modeling, custom orthoses, adhesives/lamination/micro-perforation, and after-sales support.

The business model is exclusively B2B: a PrestaShop-based gated storefront (crispin-medical.com) requiring SIRET-based professional verification (24-48 hours) for pricing visibility and ordering, paired with eight named regional sales representatives covering the Région Parisienne, Nord-Est, Centre-Est, Sud-Ouest, Centre-Ouest, Ouest, Nord, and Sud-Est zones. Payment terms include credit card and PayPal for web orders, a EUR 170 HT free-shipping threshold, electronic invoicing, and tiered volume discounts (up to 20% on certain module elements at 10+ pairs). Custom furniture and high-ticket equipment carry a 30% deposit on orders above EUR 305 HT. Product revenue is complemented by value-added services and, for the laser, a 6-month Try & Buy contract.

Geographic scope is explicitly limited to France Métropolitaine (excluding Corsica). The company is privately held, with no disclosed parent, investors, funding rounds, or subsidiaries. Headcount is 11-50 employees, with registered share capital of EUR 1,000,000 and RCS Angers registration. There is no disclosed revenue, no named enterprise customers, and no third-party certifications beyond CE-marking on the autoclave and European hygiene standard compliance on the disinfectant line.

Broad incumbents

• Enovis (DJO Global): US-listed orthopedic and podiatric device company. Comparable on the medical-device / orthopedic-appliance side of Crispin's business (orthoses, therapeutic devices), but operating at global scale.
• Henry Schein: Global medical, dental, and podiatry distributor with a multi-million SKU catalog. Represents the broadline distribution model that Crispin's one-stop podology strategy is built to defend against.
• Bauerfeind: Established German orthopedic and podiatric appliance manufacturer with a broad product range (braces, insoles, compression). Comparable in therapeutic-device orientation and podiatry channel overlap, but at significantly larger scale.

Direct peers

• Naolux: European podology-focused equipment and consumables brand. Comparable in product scope (instruments, care, orthotic materials) and customer base (podiatry professionals).
• Cominox: French autoclave and sterilization equipment manufacturer. Direct domestic rival in the Class B sterilizer category, sharing French manufacturing positioning with Crispin's autoclave line.
• Laboratoires Anios (Ecolab Healthcare): Leading French medical-surface and hand disinfection specialist. Most credible incumbent competitor to Crispin's Aquasine line in healthcare and dental settings across France.
• Comed SAS: French medical and podology equipment distributor with a comparable multi-category catalog and B2B e-commerce model. Direct competitor in the French pédicure-podologue supply channel.
• MELAG Medizintechnik: German specialist manufacturer of Class B autoclaves and sterilization workflows. The most direct competitive reference for Crispin's Touch Smart Pro 3L autoclave line and its consumables ecosystem.
• Cizeta Medicali: Italian podology equipment manufacturer offering podiatry chairs, units, and cabinet furniture. Closest European head-to-head analog to Crispin's furniture-and-equipment model, though serving a different national market.

Others

• Bentlon: Dutch manufacturer of podiatry chairs and cabinet equipment currently distributed by Crispin. Comparable product category; included as a supply partner whose direct-to-market moves would materially affect Crispin.
