Worms Entreprises

What Worms Entreprises does

Worms Entreprises is a French private manufacturer and distributor of power generation and fluid management equipment, headquartered in Collégien (ZAC de Lamirault business park, Seine-et-Marne). Founded in the mid-1970s and operating for over fifty years, the company designs, produces, and supplies thermal engines, generator sets (portable power stations ranging from 2 kVA to 15 kVA under the ACCESS, CHALLENGER, EXPERT, EXPLORER, LEADER, TRISTAR, and SILENTSTAR series), tractor-driven alternators (AGROSTAR), motor-driven and electric submersible water pumps, hybrid welder-generators (MIXTE series), high-pressure cleaners (HPSTAR, 130-300 bar), and fuel-powered joint cutters (SW series). Underlying technology relies on conventional thermal and electromechanical engineering, with one proprietary differentiator being VORTEX-effect turbine architecture in submersible pumps that enables solids-laden fluid handling without clogging the hydraulic components.

The business model is direct B2B sales with quotation-based pricing in euros excluding VAT, supplemented by a regional Authorized Repairer network (Points Réparateurs Agréés, PAR) that handles installation, warranty, and maintenance services. Customer segments are organized vertically, with Building and Public Works (BTP) professionals as the primary buyer, followed by agriculture (irrigation, drainage, flood response), municipalities and public services, and industrial buyers including firefighting and military applications. Geographic reach is metropolitan France plus the Dom-Com overseas territories (Réunion, Martinique, Mayotte, Guyana, Saint Martin, Saint Pierre & Miquelon), with website and catalogs localized into French, English, German, and Dutch. The company holds ISO 9001 (quality management, renewed November 2024) and ISO 14001 (environmental management, renewed September 2024) certifications, GDPR compliance, and is a member of Eco-Systèmes for WEEE compliance and CITEO for packaging recycling.

Revenue is not publicly disclosed. Headcount is reported as 11-50 employees, placing the company firmly in the French small-SME bracket. After-sales service is a stated retention mechanism, anchored by a 3-year warranty on items and petrol engines and a 1-year warranty on specified SILENTSTAR models and generators of 9 kVA and above. The company is independent, with no parent, subsidiaries, funding rounds, M&A activity, or executive team identified in available sources.
