Introducing Thermoflan company

In 1961, Georges MOUREAU created  Thermoflan thermo hardening  matrix board, developed products and equipment for stamp making and founded THERMOFLAN Company. Since then, a dynamic and experienced team, led today by Jean Luc MOUREAU, has developed and specialized in marking technologies.

Created from a traditional small structure, THERMOFLAN company  has not only developed to reach an almost worldwide reputation in stamp making business, but has also been able to diversify both to anticipate or support customers’ development,  and to win new markets in marking business:  signage, pad printing, laser, doming...

Thanks to our position as a manufacturer or in association with international partners chosen for their competence and reliability, our activities now range from craft applications (art stamps, laser engraving on wood…) to the most advanced industrial needs (integration in automatic lines, traceability, precision marking or cutting...) including  more or less unusual requests  (pad printing on  chocolates, laser marking for landing gear...).

Concerned about our customers’ needs and attentive to all technical and economic evolutions, human dimension, quality of listening and seriousness remain essential in our company since its creation.

Director's editorial

In an increasingly competitive environment, companies need to differentiate from others :  marking  their visual identity is a solution to  put  their brand forward, inform customers and customize their products.

As  a growing SME,  Thermoflan participates in many customers’ projects, from small businesses to large accounts, in a wide variety of  applications : electronics, medical, packaging, communication by object, architecture, industry….

Thermoflan has succeeded to make a name for itself in marking business,   because of its expertise and technological innovation strategy, relying on highly qualified partners, but keeping a human sized structure.

After microelectronics and business administration studies, my aim was not to  take over the family business. However Thermoflan's  know-how and reputation could not leave the family business. Initiated since my youngest age in this marking environment, I took up the challenge in 1993.

With high concern for the diversity of our customers' requests and with significant knowledge of techniques and market players, my team and I have the passion to accompany you in all your projects.

You have a marking  idea , we will do our best to  find the solution!

Our partners

We are working with several international manufacturers. With more than 25 year long business contacts, some of them are more partners than suppliers : so many  years of collaboration have created not only commercial but also often friendly relations.

Offering a product, adapting it to your requirements, providing good service and fast response require more than just a customer/supplier relationship.  We are looking for  such a trust relationship.
