ITV Parapentes (also known as ITV Paragliders) is a French aircraft producer located in Doussard, having previously operated out of Épagny, Haute-Savoie. The firm focuses on designing and manufacturing ready-to-fly paragliders and also produces wings specifically for paramotor use.[1][2]

Established during the 1980s, ITV Parapentes expanded to become one of the leading paraglider manufacturers worldwide.[1]

By the early 2000s, their product line included beginner-friendly gliders such as the Opale and Proxima, alongside intermediate models like the Diamant, Polaris, and Tomahawk. Additionally, they offered a tandem glider designed for instructional purposes, named the Turquoise. All these models were created under the direction of designer Xavier Demoury.[1]
