The history of this agency dates back to the 1970s, to the time of the oil crisis. It actively collaborates with politicians, public organisations, the private sector and citizens. It is behind recommendations, proposals for technical, methodological and financial procedures, studies and awareness campaigns. Thanks to its many years of operation, ADEME is recognised as a credible third party providing guarantees of efforts towards a sustainable future. By purchasing a product from a manufacturer cooperating with this agency, the customer can express their will to preserve the environment through strictly assessed procedures and key innovations throughout the process of its creation.For over 100 years, VILAC has been fulfilling children's dreams. The French brand VILAC, as the flagship of the French industry for the production of wooden toys, is located deep in the heart of the Jura Mountains, surrounded by mountains, lakes and forests. Since 1911, VILAC has been producing wooden toys hand in hand with traditional manufacturing, modern trends, adaptable economics and an emphasis on ecology. The toys are made from wood sourced from sustainably managed forests, respecting biodiversity and with a strong emphasis on environmentally friendly technologies. VILAC prefers short routes for wood delivery. It uses local wood and ensures that a new tree is planted for every tree felled. Because today we can no longer ignore the challenges of environmental problems, VILAC is committed to defending our planet. After all, a river consists of many small drops. Therefore, VILAC continues its environmentally friendly activities.VILAC also follows in the footsteps of the old turning factories that once made the region famous: craftsmen lovingly turned, smoothed, sanded, lacquered and decorated wood in their workshop in the Jura mountains. Beech, hornbeam, alder or boxwood from the surrounding French forests are used; this wood guarantees the specificity and quality of production. There are so many stories about these craftsmen who love their craft and have managed to pass it on. In fact, not much has changed in the last 110 years, and that's quite reassuring. The gestures are almost the same, the noise of the machines, the sounds of carving and painting wood create the same melody. Above all, the workshop still smells of beech wood chips, which evoke old memories. If the company does not have the know-how for some toys in France, it manufactures them abroad, where it applies the same quality requirements. In production, it eliminates the use of all plastic parts except when necessary for the safety of children. And this also applies to product packaging. VILAC applies high quality and safety requirements to the production of toys both in France and in other foreign countries.VILAC collaborates in the production of toys with talented illustrators, artists and designers who create wooden toys with original designs and often decorative elements that add a touch of authenticity and naturalness not only to the children's room. These artists adapt their visual world to traditional wooden toys: pop culture with Keith Haring, poetry with Michelle Carlsund, retro with Ingela P. Arrhenius, Suzy Ultman's eye for detail and others. Each generation can find something to marvel at in their creations. VILAC is constantly developing and establishing new collaborations, the most important of which is the collaboration with the Musée d'Orsay and the Réunion des Musées Nationaux (RMN), the Élysée Palace – the seat of the Presidents of the French Republic. It also collaborates with the Ladislav Sutnar Faculty of Design and Art from the Czech Republic. VILAC wooden toys are unique, timeless, always on-trend, and can enchant all generations. VILAC helps shape children's imaginations with its joyful illustrations and des
