Its role Investor / Financier
Cybelle is a Belgian holding company (société anonyme / naamloze vennootschap) incorporated in 1997 and headquartered in Nivelles, Belgium. With a share capital of €17.5 million, it functions as a long-term investment vehicle primarily focused on industrial and sustainable sectors.
The company maintains majority stakes in inorganic and speciality chemicals through SILOX and in biomass energy recovery via BIOCARBON. Its controlling family shareholder also operates in sanitary equipment (SIAMP) and food packaging through the CEDAP group. CEDAP is a significant player in the global food packaging industry, with manufacturing facilities in France, Belgium, Mexico, and the United States, emphasizing food safety for dairy products and supporting the sector's environmental transition toward sustainable materials.
Cybelle has positioned itself as a strategic investor in the circular economy and decarbonization efforts. In late 2024, it joined as a new shareholder in Futerro S.A., a Belgian company developing a major lactic acid, lactide, and PLA (polylactic acid) biorefinery in France, alongside existing investors Finasucre and Compagnie du Bois Sauvage. This investment aligns with Cybelle's interest in bioplastics as alternatives to fossil-based materials in food packaging applications.
Directors include Jean-Christophe Bogaert, Joel Perrin, and Djivan Djierdjian. The company exemplifies family-controlled holdings that support innovative, environmentally responsible industrial projects across Europe and beyond.
Also known as Cybelle N.V., Cybelle SA, and Cybelle (Cedap group).
