A modern tree care business, ELAG’BEARN, has been established in Piets-Plasence-Moustrou, in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques department of southwestern France. The company is the creation of Étienne Hecquard, a 30-year-old arborist with 14 years of experience in the field.
Hecquard, originally from Morlannes, formally launched ELAG’BEARN on January 7, 2026, registering it as a simplified joint-stock company (SAS), according to official records. The business operates from 1704 chemin Départementale 45, 64410 Piets-Plasence-Moustrou, and can be reached at 06 78 91 56 46.
ELAG’BEARN offers a comprehensive range of tree care services, including pruning, felling, and the removal of green waste. Hecquard emphasizes safety in his work, utilizing professional equipment such as climbing harnesses, ropes, pulleys, and specialized cutting tools. He too provides smaller landscaping services, including hedge trimming, brush clearing, and general gardening.
The company’s service area extends across the Béarn region and into the Landes department. Hecquard is also a member of the JARDINIERS SAP cooperative, allowing him to offer services eligible for France’s 50% tax credit for personal services.
According to company filings, ELAG’BEARN currently operates with a single employee – Hecquard himself. He was born in September 1991.
