About us
Launching targets for fun & competition
L
aporte’s core business is the clay shooting industry. We are the one and only manufacturer of both traps and clays. We started in 1927 and today Laporte is a brand instantly recognised and associated with our sport. We are, justifiably, proud of our heritage and our accomplishments. An exclusive supplier to 7 Olympic Games, Laporte has also been honored to be a supplier selected by the Sports Federations of Europe and North America. We are a responsive, proactive and innovative actor in our market. We make it our mission to support major competitions by providing the right equipment along with reliable and accurate targets ! We continuously strive to evolve our sport by providing up-to-date & technologically advanced products. These are keys to our success. Shooting aerial targets is fun, addictive and challenging. This is our field of expertise and the reason why we created machines for the archery. Today with our Phoenix range, we have paved the way for brand new disciplines in the fields of archery and more recently paintball. These new Phoenix machines allow us to create dynamic games which attract new players every day. These new disciplines were enjoyed during the Jamboree 2013 by the Boy Scouts’ of America. Committed as partners until 2021 we, along with the Boy Scouts, have many experiences and opportunities to be shared. This is a new and exciting adventure ahead of us. For fun or for competition, our brand has something exciting to offer you.
