General information

Short Summary
The company designs and manufactures pylons, the first green telecom towers and biodiversity refuge, intended to accommodate the antennas of mobile telephone operators. They are looking for a metal structure manufacturer or supplier.
Full Description
Located in the Caribbean, on the French island of Martinique, the company is a startup specialized in telecom infrastructure. After 3 years of research and innovation, they have developed a new type of telecom pylon, designed to facilitate their integration and acceptance within the local environment. They offer innovative integration solutions, promoting bio-integrated and artistic architecture that makes antennas invisible while improving service proximity for better urban quality and reduced operational costs.
Advantages and Innovations
The big difference lies in the fact that they respect 4 innovative criteria:
1. Environmental integration: the structures are « designed » and have an architectural shape, integrating perfectly into the landscape and their environment.
2. Use of bio-sourced materials: the materials used reduce their carbon footprint and are biosourced.
3. Development of ecosystems through the installation of birdhouses and insect hotels on the mast: the masts can accommodate bio-diversity elements, such as nest boxes or shelters for insects or bats for example ; the pylons are « vegetalised » , since they grow climbing plants at the foot, the objective of which is to cover 3/4 of the structure.
4. Customization to meet specific needs.
