ETME ELECTRONICS

What ETME ELECTRONICS does

ETME ELECTRONICS is a French electronic subcontractor that designs, prototypes, and manufactures electronic circuit boards and control systems, operating from a production facility in Soulom in the French Pyrenees. Founded in 2019 as a spin-off from the ETME distribution network within Groupe ACCÉDIA, the company serves demanding industrial verticals including defense, aeronautics, rail, medical, and industrial closure and automation. Its technical scope spans the full electronic lifecycle: diagnostic and specification writing, hardware/software design, industrialization, mixed CMS (SMT) and through-hole PCB assembly using Siemens Siplace equipment, custom test bench development, CEM pre-certification, and repair services for both ETME-manufactured and third-party electronic cards. The flagship proprietary product is the PIC 4416V variable frequency drive card for sliding gates, sectional doors, fast doors, and metal grilles, launched in May 2023 in multiple enclosure variants.

The business model blends professional services (custom design, testing, repair) with hardware sales (PCB manufacturing and integrated assemblies), priced on a quote basis with no public pricing. Go-to-market relies on direct enterprise field sales from Soulom, the ACCÉDIA GROUP distribution network across France (SEPTAM, GCAS, AVDM, ESDAS, SERIÉ, TSF agencies), and international reach through ACCÉDIA GROUP subsidiaries in Germany (TORNADO) and the USA (ASI Drives, Philadelphia). Quality credentials include ISO 9001 and EN 9100 certifications from AFNOR, plus CE marking, and the company holds La FRENCH FAB ambassador status (2022). ETME ELECTRONICS is wholly owned by Groupe ACCÉDIA, a family-controlled diversified industrial conglomerate founded in 2010 by Dominique Pinault, with no third-party institutional investors disclosed.
