Commitment

 

SEL is the expert in the conception, manufacturing and distribution of deterrent systems to repel birds, since 1986. The deterrents used, do not cause any harm to the birds. SEL products have the only vocation to dissuade them from landing

The Trademarks manufactured by SEL are:

 ECOPIC®
 DEPIGEONAL®
 BIRD-OUT®
 CABLE BIRD®...

We intervene very soon in the process by developing ourselves the products. If necessary, we register the models and patent them. We work on close collaboration with our partners (raw materials suppliers) by buying directly the raw material. That enables to control all traces. The manufacturing is under permanent control, to sell you only the best.

Our products are often composed of stainless-steel and polycarbonate (for the « base »). The steel wire often used gives an important mechanical resistance, not under 1700-2000N/mm2. This result has all it’s importance; it gives the guarantee of the efficiency of our products, that is what we call a spring quality wire. Standards resistances to salty mists exist, we use the DIN50021 NSS ASTM B117 standard norm, recognized and uses in the automobile industries. One of our product STEELINOX®+ passes over the limit of 1000 hours of salty mists; again a quality proof sure in time.

The polycarbonate comes from worldwide well-known manufacturers. No exotic products, because an impeccable quality must here also be insured. The polycarbonate we use is of 80% minimum virgin polycarbonate, the UV resistance is essential; only a perfect control, guarantees a maximal resistance.

Without giving more details, just in a few words some information, that proves that our products are not simply « spikes ». Not everyone manufactures quality products. Do not hesitate to ask form details about materials used and about our guarantee.

We manufacture in France, because we have competent technicians, a great reactivity, a real good production and a constant control for quality. All the above mentioned reasons enable us to offer you an unbeatable range of products.

A multitude of services to assist you:
- an assistance for quotations;
- a 24 hours delay of delivery;
- a mailing assistance;
- an assistance for coding our products (EAN);
- an on-line command ...

All these contribute to offer you not only our products.

The company

 
The company SEL is permanently presented in 38 countries. SEL is confronted with every kind of bird and all kinds of architectural situations. Bird problem is complex. Only one solution is often ineffective. Rely upon an expert.

Why should you protect your patrimony against birds :

1st - The aesthetic

The pigeon, gull or starling venue on our buildings does not bother, it gives a few animation. The aesthetic problem comes with the number of birds, in fact, if a group of twenty bird is on a statue, a balcony or a cornice, the architecture is immediately wasted.

2nd- The excretions

The bird faeces cause also a visual constraint, but particularly a reel technical problem. In fact the faeces are extremely acid, whatever the support can not resist and inch by inch it will be burned by it.

3rd- The health

The bird proliferation generate the risk of illness transmissions:
INFECTIONS :
- viral diseases like New Castle or Paramixovirus, Adenovirus, Herpes Virus, Diftero-smallpox
- fungal diseases like Aspergilosis, Cadidiasis of Muguet
- bacterial diseases like Salmonelosis or Paritifosis, Pasteurelosis or Colera, Coriza, Ornitosis PARASITICS :
- internal = Coccidioasis, Ascaridiosis, Capilariosis, Teniasis
- protozoanal = Plasmodiosis or Malaria, Haemoproteosis,Trichomoniasis
- external = Lice, Acaros, Dipteros (flies), Carraças (aracnideaos)

Beyond the problem attached to the animal and to the support, it’s also necessary to distinguish what we call « the pressure ». In fact when the animal has decided to land on a support he systematically has a reason: a watching place, place to sleep, place of reproduction...

We have identify several zones :

- Low pressure zone, utilization of the support for the bird to rest;
- Medium pressure, utilization of the support for the bird to observe a place of food (cornice upon a restaurant), sunbathing….
- High pressure zone, nesting…

One or several SEL products correspond to each of these zones.

Beware, on some buildings we can found zones on which any birds will land. In fact these places are exposed to wind currents. In this case, you will not find any pigeon, but perhaps gulls or seagulls. All the time observing is necessary; do not hesitate to contact the SEL team. We assist our customers since 20 years.
