My suppliers: the excellence of French know-how.
The Living Heritage Company (EPV) label
I am fortunate to work with EPV suppliers, whether it is my printer Label Graine (Valtex group), or my linen supplier "Lemaitre-Demeestere", they have been recognized as a Living Heritage Company.
Their know-how allows me to offer you high-quality products, 100% French. What a pleasure to make these materials born from the experience of passionate and exciting people.
This year 2020 will have allowed us, despite everything, to question our way of consuming. The linen sector is developing through initiatives from involved and responsible companies.

Faced with increasingly tough international competition, the term " French product " is not always enough to attract customers. Framed, the "Living Heritage Company" (EPV) label highlights the excellence of French manufacturing .
What is the legislation for made in France?
Although several laws deal with the use of the term "French manufacturing", they do not make it mandatory to affix such an indication on a craft or industrial good produced in France. This mention is the result of a voluntary approach on the part of companies wishing to highlight their local commitment . However, it has the disadvantage of being declarative and controlled a posteriori. Since it does not have any formalized visual, it also runs the risk of being considered by the consumer as an additional marketing element.
Economic criteria for displaying the “made in France” label
To consider a product as made in France, Customs applies European regulations on the non-preferential origin of goods on a national scale. A product can display a "made in France" marking as long as the manufacturing conditions meet the rules set out in these regulations. These rules are varied and require companies to have a certain mastery of the non-preferential origin in order to determine that of their product. Customs has set up a free procedure to provide you with information on the possibility of a "Made in France" marking on your product: this is the Made in France Information (IMF) procedure.

The EPV label: ambassador of “made in France” excellence
Issued by the State after rigorous instruction, this label aims to reward small and medium-sized companies that are emblematic of French excellence industrial or artisanal.
Its criteria focus in particular on the mastery of advanced, renowned or traditional know-how, generally associated with a terroir. They make it possible to clearly highlight high added value of “made in France” manufacturing in the eyes of national and international buyers.
This promotional action is amplified by the presence of labeled companies at major trade fairs as well as by export support.
Distinguishing manufacturing excellence and rare know-how, the “Living Heritage Company” label allows French companies to be effectively promoted in the face of global competition
