An agile organisation, with 30 years of industrial heritage
We are your technical partners, helping you safeguard the past (Obsolescence) and build the future (Business Development).

Expertise at the heart of management
Explorea was founded in 2020 by Patrick Roseleur, a well-known figure in the high-performance connectivity industry. Having held strategic roles at market leaders (Deutsch / TE Connectivity, Glenair), he identified a gap in obsolescence management for critical ‘low-volume’ products.
Regulatory Expert:
Former CENELEC rapporteur for standard EN 50467 (Connectors for railway applications).
What this means for you:
Your solutions aren’t just ‘found’ – they’re validated by someone who helps set industry standards.
Two pillars, one synergy
Solutions to Obsolescence
We act as an extension of your design department to source or recreate items that are no longer available.
Growth & Development (Asia)
Our in-depth knowledge of the industrial landscape in India and China enables us to do two things:
- Sourcing rare components for our European clients.
- Supporting French companies wishing to establish a presence in these dynamic markets.
At EXPLOREA, we open the doors to international markets for French SMEs by facilitating strategic partnerships with China and India, whilst taking cultural nuances into account.
We help you lay the practical foundations for your international success, ensuring mutual growth and ethical business relationships with your partners.
We promise you bespoke support and a commitment to connecting you with a reliable partner in India or China within three months.
