Four pillars, since 1950
SCALP designs and manufactures high-performance, innovative and responsible technical solutions in France, dedicated to the maintenance, protection, treatment and enhancement of surfaces. Drawing on over 70 years serving professionals in the building, industry and transport sectors, our family-run business has been built around four fundamental pillars.
Innovation
We design innovative solutions that meet demanding specifications in the shortest possible time, and we do our utmost to guarantee the shortest possible delivery.
Efficiency
Safety is of paramount importance. We adhere strictly to current standards, in line with ISO 9001, for which we have been certified since 2005 — twenty years.
We are committed to supplying products that meet your requirements and comply with legal obligations, through a compliant and efficient system applied across the company.
Ecology
Social responsibility sits at the heart of our strategy. We invest continually in the research and development of innovative solutions, favouring raw materials of natural origin and manufacturing processes that limit CO₂ emissions.
We have also implemented a low-carbon strategy aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preserving biodiversity, alongside raising our employees’ awareness of environmental issues.
Quality
Our day-to-day role is to select the most effective and innovative raw materials, in terms of both efficacy and safety. We give preference to French or European raw materials meeting the most stringent standards, and every product is meticulously tested in our laboratories before launch.
Certified, and audited from outside
Quality, safety and respect for the environment sit at the heart of our approach. We hold several recognised labels and accreditations that attest to the performance and reliability of our products — awarded by third parties, not declared by us.
EXCELL+
Guarantees that our products comply with very strict emission and residue thresholds, protecting the health of users and building occupants.
EXCELL Zone Verte

On the international stage

Our command of international logistics and the associated Incoterms guarantees delivery of our products while relieving you of the formalities. SCALP complies with the regulations and safety standards specific to each country in which its products are marketed.
Our reputation is built on innovation, quality and performance. We share with every customer a passion for a job well done and for precision — because for us every detail counts. It is thanks to that investment, patience and hard work that our products are recognised by professionals the world over.
