Originally the company was established by Campbell-Jones in France to collaborate with Dudek Paragliding of Bydgoszcz, Poland in producing paragliders including Campbell-Jones' Reflex wing and paramotors, including the Paramania Vortex. Prior to that Campbell-Jones' designs were produced and marketed by the Eagle Flight Factory.[1]

By 2015 the company was specializing only in the design and production of wings for powered paragliding and was producing the Paramania GTS, GTX, Revo and the Rokit wings.[4]

Paramania wings are distributed by paramotor manufacturers, such as Paratour.[5]
