Nowadays, companies are being criticized more and more according to the importance of their will to assume environmental friendly conditions . However, we don’t hear this requirement as a duty, but more like a question of love and passion for our craft.
Responsible for Nature
It is with the same passion that includes the practice of the profession, that we consider the environment. It is thanks to nature that we are provided with an exceptionally raw material, allowing us to produce high-quality barrels every single day.
Oak trees that are aged more than 200 years, planted during a period of time in which pollution didn’t exist, are nowadays used to create our barrels. From an ethical standpoint, we have to make sure all of the replanted oak trees enjoy the same fulfillment for the next 200 years.
To do this, the teams of the Tonnellerie Cavin constantly search for new ways to minimize their impact on our (?) planet. For this reason, all of our packages are recyclable.
Act local, think global; our choice to produce in Burgundy, using raw materials from the Châtillonnais, helps us reduce our carbon footprint.
To us, it is essential that the production, use and removal of a barrel doesn’t cause any inconvenience to the environment . We support the reuse of barrels, as much as we can, for longevity and reduced waste, before joining again at the end of their life, in a recycled fashion. This is the reason why we offer to our partner companies individualized return programmes.
Modernizing our profession, is also to act responsible.
Explore the Potentials.
Since the very early stages, an entrepreneurial spirit guided our approach to work, our relationship with our team.
Our Mantras
Give Meaning.
Know your customer, understand their barrel choice. We involve our team in the production process from A to Z. We allow talents to reveal themselves, until they reach excellence in their sector.
Freedom and Autonomy.
We work independently, to become more responsive. Taking the good decisions in due course, being free to take decisions allows us to have a global comprehension of the company.
Prepare the New Generations.
There’s no future without new generations of coopers! Our company is partnered with several training organizations such as the “Compagnons du Devoir”, in order to contribute to the shaping of new talents around us.
