About us
Nanolane specialise in the development and commercialisation of optical solutions for characterising systems at the nanoscale, in particular they commercialise an innovative optical materials characterisation tool called SARFUS that extends the applicability of optical microscopy to the growing and thriving field of nanotechnologies. SARFUS' outstanding capabilities result from the implementation of the patented Surface-Enhanced Ellipsometric Contrast (SEEC) optical technique.
Nanolane is the nanotechnology department of éolane, the signature of 18 companies; all gathered under 100% control of a holding, the "Financière de l'Ombrée", whose main activity is the design and fabrication of professional electronic products. The éolane companies operate in complementary fields: technologies, industrial resource, economic sectors, and geographical areas. Strong synergies are present between them all in areas such as design, purchasing, sales, industry, networks, and quality to name but a few important ones. In 2010, our turnover was €268 million. Nowadays 2,300 people work together at éolane.
