Demarle in the world
A European company with headquarters and manufacturing plants located in Wavrin near Lille (North of France). 32 Million Euros in Sales in 2002, 126 Employees, currently successfully promoting direct sales in: France, Germany, Belgium and United Kingdom.
Demarle has a long history of innovation, of immense curiosity, of people who in turn made their contribution to the Demarle structure as we know it today, to make it become the Gourmet Cooking specialist!
A Pioneer in the Food-Standard High-Temperature Silicone Technology
In 1960, Guy Demarle, a chemist of genius, came up with a new non-stick process designed for the food industry. A pioneer in the food-standard high-temperature silicone technology, Mr. Demarle used this new material combined with a fibreglass structure, to create professional tools designed for the food industry.
He first invented a silicone coated sheet, to replace the leather then used by confectioners, then non-stick baguette mats that revolutionised bread cooking, bringing it hygiene, quality and productivity. This is when he developed Silpat® - a baking sheet used by bakers and sweets specialists alike, to prepare pastries or work with sugar. Silpat® soon turned out to be an essential tool for chefs all around the world. After 25 years of good and faithful service, Guy Demarle retired for a well-deserved rest… But the Demarle spirit on being the cooking flexible non-stick specialist was born.
A New Concept
In 1994, Patrice Jacquelin bought Demarle and launched a new concept: Gourmet Cooking at Home.
Patrice Jacquelin was born with a passion for cooking, in Burgundy, a temple of the French gastronomy. The current chairman and CEO soon became aware of the huge potential of the Demarle brands, and decided that from then on developing the Demarle name meant conquering the everyday cook’s kitchen.
An Impressive Success
In 1995, the Demarle Team opted on promoting its products through the party plan marketing.
The success was impressive. Everyday was a new event, the company rapidly acquired an international dimension within Europe, and its turnover has been growing steadily.
