For over 40 years, Focal has been designing and manufacturing free-standing and in-wall/in-ceiling loudspeakers for the home, Home Cinema systems, speaker drivers for cars, monitors for recording studios, open-back and closed-back Hi-Fi headphones, as well as audio solutions for boats and yachts. Based in Saint-Étienne in France, Focal has positioned itself as a global leader in its field, thanks to its constant commitment to new technologies and innovations.
Focal has always been recognised and renowned worldwide for its expertise and manufacturing of products “Made in France”.
The production site in Saint-Étienne, in the Auvergne department (Rhône-Alpes), groups together research & development and the production lines for speaker drivers, loudspeakers and high-fidelity headphones.
It is also equipped with a logistics platform. 100% of our hi-fi loudspeakers, monitoring loudspeakers and high-end products - including our Headphone and Car Audio collections - are made in France.
We are particularly proud to have maintained production in France. It gives our equipment real added value, and guarantees optimal sound quality, thanks to our unique expertise, to our specific production line and to the assembly, which is in part carried out “by hand”.
All our products are the result of innovations and technologies exclusive to Focal all developed by our engineers in France.
To stay faithful to our tradition of high-performance, a 100% Focal design is paramount. We believe this is the best way to have complete control over the design and quality control processes in order to guarantee high-quality products.
Focal Ébénisterie Bourgogne, our dedicated cabinet-making workshop, is an asset to the prestige of Focal and its products. Based in Bourbon-Lancy in Bourgogne, it brings together a team of cabinet makers and manufactures the enclosures for our Hi-Fi and high-end professional loudspeakers: Sopra, Utopia. The sound performance of our products is influenced by the quality of our materials and finishes, as well as the unique French expertise of our teams.
The quality of our products is essential, and excellence is a constant concern. This is why we choose all our French and foreign partners with great care, to ensure that the level of quality meets our select criteria, whether they're suppliers of components or finished products.
Certain manufacturing processes are outsourced to our partners, who have been carefully selected according to strict criteria.
We apply strict quality control standards as a guarantee that the manufacturing process adheres to our values in terms of excellence.
