Jacques Mahul, founder of Focal in 1979, has always been committed to faithfully reproducing music as the artist imagined it. That’s why we’ve always pushed research into loudspeakers, materials and processes to improve sound reproduction. Acoustic quality is our vocation, and hi-fi loudspeakers the heart of our business, from musical creation with the Professional collection, to sound reproduction with our Home and Motorities collections.
Focal is a Living Heritage Company (EPV) for its unique expertise in acoustics, for the training of its teams in rare and specific techniques, for its manufacturing in its production (Saint-Etienne) and cabinet-making (Bourbon-Lancy) workshops, and for its innovative patents.
This quest for perfection has given rise to loudspeakers and technologies, some of which have become world references. These include the Beryllium tweeter, the Flax sandwich cone in flax fibre, the K2 cone in aramid fibre, the “M” profile and the Slatefiber cone in recycled carbon, among many others: all exclusive innovations. We cultivate the rigor, inventiveness and precision that lead us to excellence.
We craft solutions for a modern lifestyle. From creative lighting designs that redefine spaces to ensuring seamless project execution, we transform concepts into living experiences.
