Why choose baby accessories made in Occitanie? The “Made in Occitanie” label at Timouny
AtTimouny, the introduction ofthe“Made in Occitanie”labelmarks a major milestone: it symbolizes our commitment to quality, local roots, and a responsible production model designed fornew parents looking forethical baby accessories. In this article, I’ll explain how this label highlights our artisanal manufacturing, our social commitment, and our environmental values.
The "Made in Occitanie" label: a recognition of our craftsmanship
The"Made in Occitanie " label highlights companies that design and manufacture their products within the region while adhering to eco-friendly practices. It showcases local expertise and supports jobs that cannot be outsourced.
For us, earning this certification means that the entire production process ( design and manufacturing) of our accessories (highchair cushions, baby blankets, bath capes, bibs, and more) takes place in Occitanie, in accordance with the criteria set forth in the commitment charter.
Local, socially responsible, and inclusive production
Our workshop is located in Occitanie, which ensures a strong connection to our values and our clients. We work with a workshop staffed by people with disabilities, which is particularly important to us: not only do we value human expertise, but we are also contributing to a social and inclusive initiative.
This collaboration not only allows us to create high-quality handmade products, but also gives meaning to every accessory we make: each item is crafted with respect and dedication.
Responsible suppliers: when Occitanie isn't enough
When certain raw materials are not available locally, wechoose suppliers from France orneighboring countries to ensure traceability and minimize our carbon footprint. This local sourcing strategy allows us to maintain quality control while upholding our environmental commitments.
Oeko-Tex 100 certified fabrics: safety and comfort for your baby
All of our fabrics areOeko-Tex 100 certified, which means they have been tested and are guaranteedto be free of substances harmful to babies’ sensitive skin. This choice meets the expectations of new parents who care about their child’s health and comfort, while aligning with our values regarding textile ethics.
The "Made in Occitanie" label is not the first label our Timouny brand has received
In fact, two years ago we earned the “Eco-défis” certification, a major milestone for our business. With this certification, we committed to reducing packaging in our shipped orders and repurposing all fabric scraps. Thanks to this initiative, we launched a zero-waste line, featuring toothbrush cases, soap pouches, dishcovers, etc., all made from our fabric scraps. This eco-friendly approach is a cornerstone of our brand and perfectly complements our “Made in Occitanie” production.
We’ve also switched to electronic invoicing; in fact, for the past two years, we haven’t included any paper invoices in our packages.
