About
About Hemeria
Hemeria designs and manufactures space and defence systems including nanosatellites, stratospheric balloons, aerostats and lighter-than-air drone platforms. Its work spans satellite buses and payload integration, long-endurance airborne observation and specialised systems for government and commercial missions.
The Toulouse headquarters includes clean-room facilities for assembly and testing, while programme teams support design through launch or field deployment. A 2026 agreement with Safran pairs Hemeria stratospheric balloons with AI-enabled electromagnetic-intelligence sensors for persistent high-altitude surveillance. The company supplies complete platforms and engineering around payload, communications and mission requirements.
