OUR COMPANIES

The heart and purpose of our Group

Created in 2002, Technitoit was the first company to be founded by Benjamin Erisoglu. The company has gone on to become the market leader in home renovation, notably by offering an innovative concept that has driven its success: the self-cleaning house. Technitoit currently carries out around 30,000 projects a year, and boasts over 70 franchises.

Europe Energie is specialised in energy efficiency and home improvement, offering customers the most efficient energy systems on the market today. Europe Energie’s network is enjoying expansion, driven exclusively by franchises. 

The company Pr. Phobe, which designs and markets innovative surface coating products, started out in 2011 with a laboratory of the same name.  Its leitmotiv: to develop new formulas designed to protect materials coated with Pr. Phobe products.

Ben Touch Digital is Ben Touch Group’s fast-growing communications agency. With its team specialised in marketing and communications, Ben Touch Digital enables all Ben Touch Group companies to benefit from the best development strategies, particularly phygital strategies.

Mister Toiture, founded in 2021, is the most recent company to be launched by Ben Touch Group. Mister Toiture believes in offering affordable home renovation products for both professional and private consumers. It has opted for a phygital strategy, deploying both an e-commerce site and sales outlets across France.

e-Cassini was created in Maine-et-Loire, France in 2017. It was awarded at the 2019 CES Innovation Awards in Las Vegas. Ben Touch Group was immediately convinced by the exceptional potential of e-Cassini, and decided to invest in the young company to promote its growth, both in France and abroad.
