A company with a future

Axens was formed through the merger of IFP's technology licensing division with Procatalyse Catalysts & Adsorbents. Axens is a refining, petrochemical and natural gas market focused company offering market-leading products including processes, catalysts, adsorbents and associated services.

Axens' strong reputation is the result of the professionalism of our staff, our continuous efforts on the improvement of our commercial processes and products, our modern production facilities and our extensive commercial database .

Nevertheless, Axens is a young dynamic company with strong growth perspectives in the near future; Axens is financially secure and has the solid backing of a prestigious organization.

An international company with a human dimension

With more than 50 people in the USA and offices and representatives in several other countries, Axens has a worldwide presence. Nevertheless, it remains a human-sized company, which favors exchanges between employees that foster a real team spirit. This is undoubtedly of major importance for our development.

Human Resources management

First of all, given the characteristics of our jobs, the men and women that form Axens' workforce are our main value.

In practice, our organization and its human size allow each individual to be taken into account, regarding career advancement and quick access to responsibility, while favoring the team spirit necessary for the success of the company.

Moreover, the diversity of our jobs and our international presence (more than 95% of our revenue is achieved from outside of France) are two ideal components for mobility, either professional or geographic.

Employees' continuous training

The development of skills is a permanent target for Axens, our activity being highly technical and constantly innovative. Therefore, a significant share of our personnel cost is dedicated to employees' continuous training.

Continuous training is organized as follows:

Training for new employees, so that they can acquire the skills necessary for our jobs: each new employee receives specific training via teamwork on one hand, courses suited to his experience, his diploma and his job on the other hand.

Classical employee training, which is decided jointly by the employee, his hierarchy, the training coordinator and the training department. Courses that are proposed are then adapted to the company's job and to career advancement perspectives.

Our jobs are evolving quickly and each of us must always be in phase with this evolution. This is all the more true as, in our business domain, technical expertise is the guarantee to performance.
