In the same way, the relationship of trust established between our company and its employees allows steady, profitable development for everyone in the company. Our commitment to limit our impact on the environment is also one of our priorities.

After more than 168 years, Drouault’s pioneering and entrepreneurial spirit is still at the core of the company’s development. Our traditional savoir-faire is reinforced by major investments in technological innovations.

Expertise

Maison DROUAULT is one of the only companies where the production process starts with collecting feathers and ends with a complete, natural product.

A controlled supply

The Drouault tradition implies perfectly mastering the combination of down throughout the year. Thanks to a strategic location near farms in Vendée and the south-west of France, Drouault benefits from a regular, secure and high-quality supply, making it possible to collect this raw material quickly and efficiently.

Effective treatment of feathers and downs

Drouault’s savoir-faire stems from a great deal of experience in the selection of raw materials and the washing, sterilization, sorting and assembly of down. Mastering these steps is essential to avoid altering the down and to continue offering the finest-quality stuffing.

Quality products

For more than 168 years, DROUAULT has positioned itself as the haute-couture brand of the sleeping industry. Combining craft and industry, all products are handmade, giving them a unique, irrefutable character. Our teams’ expertise is evident in the neat, quality finishes on the casings.

R & D

We are committed to meeting the needs of our customers, so our research and development division is constantly working on:

• Selecting the best raw materials and developing smart fabric,
• Creating new stuffing combinations,
• Perfecting production processes for better-quality products,
• Developing innovative products that meet the needs of consumers.

Sustainable development

Strict water management

Significant investments have been made to reduce water consumption. We have acquired a new water-efficient washing unit and set up a waste-water recycling system.

For the latter, a filtering system is in place, coupled with an automatic extraction of samples for quality control. Thanks to these investments, we have been able to reduce our water consumption by 40%.

Active involvement in the Sarthe industrial community

Drouault’s social responsibility is rooted in its history and strong ties to the region :

today it is the oldest Mancelle company still in operation.

While the French textile industry has been in decline for several decades,

Drouault continues its development in France by recruiting qualified employees. Nearly 140 employees are on board for the adventure !
