Back in 1643 in Paris, Trudon began as a greengrocer as well as a wax merchant; his son carried on the family business and then became the royal wax manufacturer in 1719. As Napoleon’s wax producer during the Empire, the company survived the arrival of domestic lighting and the birth of the ‘electric revolution’ continuing to prosper.
