Arcane Industries

A French manufacturer of waterproofing products, béton ciré and renovation paints, established in the Paluds industrial zone at Aubagne since 1995. Its kits are sold by destination — wall, bathroom, worktop, stair, fireplace, exterior, over tile — each holding primer, mortar, resin, pore-filler and varnish, across a forty-shade colour card.

Its Maison Étanche shop prices every kit both outright and per square metre, in four languages.
