OUR COMMITMENTS

1

Designed and manufactured in Occitanie

Established since 2012 in the village of Le Pouget, in the heart of the Hérault region of France, Zephalto is part of a long French aeronautical tradition and an ecosystem of local partners of excellence: world specialists in extreme conditions and exceptional creators, for a French-style flight that combines a tradition of refinement and cutting-edge know-how.

2

An environmentally friendly flight

The balloon moves by inserting itself into the different air currents. Pushed by the winds, it varies its altitude to choose the right direction with the help of a regulator that runs solely on solar energy.

3

Reusable technologies

Each element of the balloon is designed to be reusable. A major technological breakthrough, the envelope is not torn at the moment of landing, but emptied of its gas and reused for subsequent flights, thus reducing the cost of access to the stratosphere.

PRE-REGISTRATION

Sign up to be one of our first passengers to space and to be kept informed of the launch of pre-sales.

OUR PARTNERS

Zephalto works with global experts in their field, specialists in space and extreme conditions to offer its passengers an exceptional experience.

Join the adventure of the pioneers of the stratosphere!
