Natural light accessible to all!

When we created Espaciel in 2013, we had a vision, an ambition, a dream: to make natural light accessible to everyone. With nearly 4,000 reflectors installed in more than 20 countries, this challenge is becoming a reality. The Espaciel light reflector provides a unique and innovative service that meets a real need.

Relatives, friends, associates, clients, colleagues, partners, you have helped and guided us in this adventure. We owe our first successes to you… Today, we are offering you the opportunity to go further in the Espaciel adventure by becoming a shareholder in the company, alongside us!

From the prototype made in the kitchen… to the product sold at Leroy Merlin

Since the first “home-made” Espaciel reflector in 2006, the product has constantly evolved to reach its current shape and its various applications: window, balcony, French window… It is the ideas and feedback from our friends, partners and customers that led to the successful and patented product we are marketing today. Proof of the maturity of the product, the BHV & Leroy Merlin in France, Migros in Switzerland are starting to distribute Espaciel reflectors in their stores!

This co-design approach has shown us the importance of sharing and exchange, to refine our offer and services in relation to market expectations. Today it seems natural to us to offer a new form of involvement to our community and our customers.

The Espaciel reflector a simple, effective and accessible solution


Acceleration of web sales and start up in distribution

In 2017, Espaciel is online to achieve a turnover of 300 000 €. That’s twice as much as in 2016.

In addition to the development of e-commerce sales on the www.espaciel.com store, the activity is becoming multi-channel: sales in supermarkets and first sales on professional projects, to equip offices. The numerous press spin-offs strengthen Espaciel’s reputation and facilitate sales.

Our goal is to double sales again in 2018 and 2019. An ambition supported by a boost e-commerce plan and the distribution of Espaciel reflectors in new stores. For example: Espaciel is now present in 2 Leroy Merlin stores (Ivry and Rosny), while the brand has more than 130 stores in France alone!


Transformation : from startup to industrial SME

The acceleration in sales reinforces the company’s development prospects. But in the short term it is a challenge to finance the production of the stock of light reflectors, deliver them, and then be paid (at 45 days end of month for distribution), hence the launch of this fund raising. We are looking for €60,000 before the end of September to launch the production of a new series of latest-generation Espaciel reflectors, and to implement our margin optimisation plan. We want to validate this crucial step to accelerate the company’s development.
