Like the brochure, the website homepage begins with a generic presentation of the group and what sets it apart, then continues with animated tabs that lead to details of each department. It ends with a process highlighting the 7 complementary departments representing the chronological stages of a complete support service to meet all customer needs.

A balance between technology and human know-how

The new visual identity highlights the group’s technological expertise, through the logo, colours and background, reminiscent of a design office layout.

This is complemented by photos showing the teams carrying out their duties, ensuring a fair balance in bringing out the quality of both machinery and human expertise.

Action photos are preferred to posed images, creating a dynamic result that indirectly highlights the group’s responsiveness. The animations used throughout the website reinforce this idea.
