The company has pursued a serial-acquisition strategy (Froment, Nueva Sibol, LH Safety, Allsafe, Elvex, Pro Safety, Alpic, Vertic, Safety Plus, Sicur Delta, Athenas) to broaden geographic reach and category depth, and in 2026 received Deloitte France's Best Managed Companies label in recognition of its management practices.
