Why Choose Baby Accessories Made in Occitanie? The “Made in Occitanie” Label at Timouny
At Timouny, receiving the “Made in Occitanie” label marks a major milestone. It reflects our commitment to quality, local roots and a responsible production model created for young parents looking for ethical baby accessories.
In this article, I’ll share how this label highlights our artisanal craftsmanship, our social commitment and the environmental values behind every Timouny creation.
The “Made in Occitanie” Label: A Recognition of Our Craftsmanship and Expertise
The “Made in Occitanie” label highlights companies that design and manufacture their products within the region while following environmentally responsible practices. It promotes local craftsmanship, celebrates regional expertise and supports sustainable, non-relocatable employment.
For us, receiving this label means that every stage of creating our accessories — from design to production — takes place in Occitanie and follows the standards set out in the label’s commitment charter.
This applies across our collections, including high chair cushions, baby blankets, hooded towels, bibs and many more thoughtfully crafted baby essentials.
Local, socially responsible, and inclusive production
Our workshop is based in Occitanie, ensuring a close connection to both our values and our customers.
We work in partnership with an inclusive workshop employing people with disabilities — something that matters deeply to us. Beyond preserving valuable human craftsmanship, this collaboration allows us to contribute to a social and inclusive approach to production.
This partnership not only allows us to create high-quality handcrafted products, but also gives deeper meaning to every accessory we make: each piece is thoughtfully crafted with care, respect and commitment.
Responsible Sourcing: When Occitanie Alone Is Not Enough
When certain raw materials are not available locally, we choose suppliers based in France or neighbouring countries to ensure traceability and reduce our carbon footprint.
This local sourcing approach allows us to maintain high quality standards while staying true to 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.
Why this label matters to you, as responsible parents
- By choosingbaby accessories made in Occitanie, you are supporting a local, artisanal, and socially responsible economy.

For us, receiving the “Made in Occitanie” label is far more than a simple badge — it is recognition of our ethical, local and social commitment.
Through every cushion, bib, blanket and zero-waste accessory, Timouny continues to move towards a more responsible, sustainable and deeply human approach to baby products.
