When you become a parent, you ask yourself a thousand questions, and that's perfectly normal. Many of you ask us where and how our baby products are made. At Novatex / TroisKilosSept.com, we have chosen to answer you simply and honestly.

100% Savoyard design, in the heart of the Alps

Everything starts here with us, in our premises located in Novalaise, in Savoie (73). This is where our designers and pattern makers develop all of our collections in-house.

From the very first sketches, we think about the comfort of newborns and the daily life of parents. We create prototypes that we check and modify as many times as necessary (sometimes three, four or five times!) to achieve flawless quality. Until the product is perfect and completely safe, we launch nothing.

Our partner factories: three countries, three factual areas of expertise

Once the prototypes have been validated in Novalaise, production is launched with our network of partner factories. To offer you the best value for money, we seek out expertise where it performs best:

• Portugal for our entire knitwear range: Northern Portugal has a worldwide reputation for its textile industry. This is your assurance of knits and clothing of absolute softness, essential for babies' delicate skin.

• Pakistan for our muslin cloths: This country is one of the world's leading specialists in cotton. Their spinning mills have mastered the weaving of cotton muslin, allowing us to offer you ultra-absorbent, healthy and durable muslin cloths.

• China for the rest of our equipment: For more technical products or heavy baby gear, Chinese factories have the infrastructure and technological precision needed to guarantee the reliability of mechanisms.

We know that manufacturing abroad, and in Asia in particular, sometimes raises questions. Yet the quality of a product depends on the level of standards imposed on it.

For us, a partner is not just a name on a contract. Our partner factories are subject to regular audits and visits. It is the only way to verify on-site that our quality standards are upheld, and that social norms and working conditions are strictly respected.
