Our history: a vision built on experience and innovation
Epsylon’s remarkable growth is due to the combined vision and expertise of Alain and Jean Lefrançois, two second-generation, dedicated entrepreneurs who have been passionate about the industry for more than 40 years. With a wealth of experience under their belts and guided by a profound desire to build, they’ve teamed up with three partners who share their objective of building a powerful, competitive, and visionary enterprise.

Infrastructures at the height of our ambitions
Epsylon was founded in Quebec City and has never stopped expanding. Today, our company includes a 100,000 sq. ft. plant in Quebec City and a 35,000 sq. ft. plant in Pompano, Florida.
Thanks to our high-performance, state-of-the-art equipment, our teams are able to ensure that every step of our production processes reflect a steadfast commitment to quality, technical precision, and operational excellence.
Meticulous engineering driven by collective strength
At Epsylon, the estimates we produced are backed by a collective expertise and honed working methods. The processes are clear, accurate, and efficient. From the very first step of the planning phase, we’ll ensure everything is in place to foster an atmosphere of collaboration and trust.
For instance, our young, dedicated, and talented design team works in close collaboration with engineering to produce workshop and production drawings that are at once creative and carefully considered. The result is a synergy between aesthetics, innovation, and utility to elevate sustainable projects designed for builders who want to go above and beyond.
A human-centric, sustainable approach
We care about performance. But we also care deeply about building business relationships based on trust, mutual respect, and the constant search for win-win solutions. We believe that every partnership is an opportunity to forge meaningful, sustainable connections, at the height of your greatest ambitions.

The Epsylon Fund: supporting the
next generation of architects
In 2016, Epsylon pledged to donate a considerable sum to the Université de Montréal School of Architecture. Ten years later and our pledge has been fulfilled. The funds were used to create the Epsylon Fund in Building Envelope to support future generations of students. Our contribution has ensured that cutting-edge training remains offered in this specialized field.
