KEY EVENTSFounded in 1962 by Christian de Maillard,

SOPPEC was initially a Charente-based

company which elaborated paints, wood

maintenance products and varnishes for

professional use.

On the eve of the 1990s, the company was

specialising in the design, manufacture

and marketing of innovative marking

systems in aerosols.

Intended initially for forestry marking

professionals, the SOPPEC aerosols have

made a successful name for themselves

in the building and public works world,

carried by the development of an

innovative, patented safety spray cap.

In 2004, Thibault de Maillard, Managing

Director since 1996, succeeded his father

and became the owner of a constantly-

growing company that had become the

European leader in its markets, with

innovation and diversification the keys to

its development.

Having opened a new logistics and storage

site in 2009, 2010 marked a new stage for

SOPPEC with a significant increase in its

production capacity to support the growth

of its domestic and export markets.

THE VALUES WHICH MAKES US DIFFERENT

C U S T O M E R

S A T I S F A C T I O N

Customer satisfaction is one of the key

values in our international development. It

is based on constantly and cost-effectively

improving performances, respecting

the health and safety of people using

our products, innovation and focusing

carefully on detecting expectations and

new requirements.

I N N O v A T I O N

The fruit of nearly thirty years of research

and testing, the creation of aerosol

marking systems was a major innovation

and represented decisive progress for

professional users. Our product ranges

have been improved constantly since then.

Focusing on five major aspects: durability,

product safety, broadening and updating

the range (colours, textures, functions),

ease of application and respect of man and

the environment.

T R U S T

Analyses, qualitative tests, multiple ins-

pections, ageing tests, etc. Every product

manufactured by SOPPEC benefits from our

total process control, from design to market

launch. This total traceability is what makes

SOPPEC so trusted by professionals.

R I S K M A N A G E M E N T

SOPPEC has been committed to a glo-

bal quality, safety and environmentally-

friendly approach for twenty years. This

includes risk control for both the produc-

tion and logistics sites and product users.

Our “SEVESO“-classified French manufac-

turing sites are measured specifically for

the storage of gases and solvents used in

the aerosols. The products themselves are

inspected many times for their seal and

reliability.

SOPPEC HAS BEEN IMPOSING ITS BRAND SINCE 1962A European leader which continues to score points

A BRAND WHICH RESPECTMAN AND THE ENVIRONMENT

INTERNATIONAL COATINGS CARE® COMMITMENT SOPPEC pioneered the introduction of the COATINGS CARE international programme into France in the 1990s. An initiative specific to the coatings industry (paints, glues and adhesives, inks, etc.), the Coatings Care Programme has been implemented in more than ten countries worldwide, including the USA, Canada, Brazil, Japan, Australia and France, for more than ten years. Its signatories undertake to consider and control the impacts of their activities on health, safety and the environment. They are therefore adhering to genuine ethics of responsibility and on-going improvement.

QSE-CERTIFIED MANAGEMENT SYSTEMThe QSE integrated management system is based on three certifications - ISO 9001 for Quality, ISO 14001 for the Environment and OHSAS 18001 for Health and Safety. In these three complementary fields, the SOPPEC approach is based on analysing and preventing risks, on-going improvement of performances, compliance with regulatory requirements and customer satisfaction. The triple certification has been renewed successfully every three years since 2004.

TAKING UP THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT CHALLENGEToday, the certifications obtained by the company and their renewal commit SOPPEC to a path of real sustainable development policy. This policy is hence-forth defined in the charter below.

SOPPEC COMMITMENT FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT• Make environmental protection, human health and responsibility for individuals the conditions of its survival.

• Promote internally a genuine sustainable development attitude, where social dialogue, awareness-raising, staff training and an organisa-

tion to achieve this reign supreme.

• Act as an ambassador for sustainable development to its customers, suppliers and partners.

• Behave as a socially responsible company by conducting a policy of transparency, on-going improvement and listening.

• Contribute to the search for and development of ever-safer products.

• Comply with and even anticipate the health, safety and environment regulations for an economically acceptable cost.

• Make its ethical and law-abiding behaviour the fundamental rule in its commercial initiatives.

No marking aerosols have Xi, Xn (irritant, harmful)

or N (toxic for the aquatic environment) pictograms

on their labels.

The products are CMR-free (carcinogenic, mutagenic,

reprotoxic) in categories 1, 2 and 3 at a concentration

higher than the regulatory threshold of 0.1%.

STANDARD MARKER®

MARKING GUN

the forestry markers in the SYLVamark® range

satisfy many uses in the wood sector, including

both forestry management and wood processing.

The range ensures accuracy, visibility and durability: fluorescent

aerosols (FLUO MARKER®, FLASH MARKER or HYDRO MARK

FLUO) or non-fluorescent (STRONG MARKER®, HYDRO MARK

or STANDARD MARKER®).

The aerosols are fitted with a specific patented cap and are

used with the top pointing upwards.

SOPPEC is working with foresters on the innovative SYLVAGUN

marking gun, which is both lightweight and comfortable.

Lastly, to limit the impact of its products on the environment,

SOPPEC offers an aqueous phase range: HYDROMARK, existing

in aerosol and cartridge compatible with the SYLVAGUN.

• All the aerosols are formulated according to our triple certification

rules.

• Use of products up to very low temperatures thanks to highly

pressurised cans (5 bar) and a specific propellant gas.

adVice on uSe

Should be used upright, apply less than 10 cm from the surface for clear, accurate marking.

• Before use: Shake the aerosol with purge upside down to mix the paint properly (you can hear the beads clearly).

• After use: purge upside down (until only gas is released) to clean valve and spray.

SYLVaGun FORESTRY markinG Guna true (patented) innovation, the first professional marking gun for foresters.

Lightweight, ergonomic, SOPPEC has designed the SYLVaGun to make marking operations more comfortable and less restrictive.

It is fitted with:

• a removable metal scraper (a), which can make marking easier by preparing the surface to be marked without using another tool or potentially damaging the aerosol.

• a translucent protective cone (b) which restricts the paint projections without restricting the marking vision.

it is used with the SoPPec fLuomarker® or StronG marker® or HYdromark range of refills.

To keep SYLVaGun working properly and ensure its long life, SOPPEC has developed the specific cleaner, SYLVACLEAN. This is mounted on the gun to clean it easily and prevent the nozzles and spraying system from clogging (see pages 26 and 27).
