Calimacil was founded in 2003 by Patrick Lessard in Sherbrooke. Inspired by modern and ancient fencing and show fighting and surrounded by a team of enthusiasts, Patrick gave himself the mission of producing the first LARP weapon in urethane foam. From there was born the famous magic potion of Calimacil Foam which produces life-size weapons of striking realism in addition to being durable and safe.

20 years later Calimacil continues to innovate in the manufacturing of safe weapons for life size. Still located in Sherbrooke and now surrounded by a team of more than 35 people. Calimacil now offers a showroom on site, continues to manufacture all its weapons on site in addition to offering modern fencing courses on its premises thanks to Sher-Lames in addition to having the largest warehouse of articles for Life Size in Canada!
