ToggleAbout MAC3
A Vision Born from Experience
MAC3 is a French brand founded in 2011, born from the desire of its founders to meet the evolving expectations of the construction and industry sectors. Our company reinvents compressed air technologies daily to provide innovative products that anticipate future needs
The "Crazy Bet" of MAC3 Founders
The story of MAC3 began with what many called a “crazy bet”. When a major compressed air specialist closed its European production site in 2010, dismissing 150 employees, five former employees decided to take their industrial expertise and launch their own company.
Today, Christelle Linossier (CEO) and Michaël Chouvelon (GM) lead the project with a focus on job creation, long-term partnerships, and relentless innovation. Our heritage stretches back to the roots of the industry, from the “Société des Forges et Ateliers de Meudon” in 1900 to Maco-Meudon and Sullair
Values at MAC3 Core
At MAC3, three fundamental approaches guide every research and development project:
- Caring for People: We design products specifically to improve working conditions and ergonomics for end-users.
- Caring for the Planet: Our solutions are engineered to minimize environmental impact and maximize energy efficiency.
- Made in France: Proudly holding the “French Fab” label, we manufacture our wide range of products at our facilities in the Loire region
Innovation in MAC3 Genes
Innovation is a fundamental pillar of our development. To protect our significant investments in R&D, MAC3 works closely with designers and attorneys to file numerous patents.
Our Design Office utilizes advanced tools like SOLIDWORKS and specialized test benches—including acoustic and performance measurement benches—to create custom solutions for pneumatic tools and compressors. Notable innovations include the AIRGO® low-vibration concrete breakers and the MSS range of oil-free industrial compressors
