Quality Charter
Tonnellerie Saury has been committed for many years to providing the highest quality products, thanks to very stringent control and analysis criteria. This commitment is evident at every stage of our manufacturing process, from the careful selection of wood to the final delivery of barrels to the cellars.
Rigorous Oak Selection
Our manufacturing process begins with a rigorous selection of oak. This strategic choice allows us to guarantee a superior quality raw material, essential for crafting exceptional barrels. With 100% autonomous supply, we have complete control over the production chain, ensuring perfect traceability from the forest to the barrel.
Controls and Analyses
In partnership with the Laboratoire Exact, located in Murlin in the Nièvre, we have established a comprehensive analysis chain to detect any potential contaminants. We conduct in-depth analyses of the wood, production environment, shipping containers, water, air, and more.
Technoak Design Office and Maintenance Workshop
Since 2006, Charlois has created its own design office (named Technoak in 2016) located in Murlin, where its own workshop ensures the maintenance and renewal of production machines in a perpetual quest for quality, safety, and material efficiency.
Certifications and Recognition
Tonnellerie Saury has obtained several certifications, demonstrating its commitment to quality and sustainability:
- PEFC Certification (Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification): This certification ensures that our oak comes from sustainably managed forests, contributing to the preservation of forest resources.
- ISO 9001: This international standard guarantees that our quality management system meets high-level standards, ensuring customer satisfaction
- ISO 14001: This certification shows our commitment to environmental management, minimizing the impact of our activities on the environment.
- HACCP Certification since 2008: It ensures that we have an effective system in place to guarantee the sanitary safety of our products.
- Origine France Garantie: This certification values our local production and authenticates the French origin of our barrels.
Traceability and Transparency
We provide to our customers traceability, allowing them to track each barrel from the forest to delivery. This transparency is a guarantee of trust, reflecting our desire to maintain the highest quality standards in our sector.
All Saury oak barrels have a unique traceability number. Each harvested tree is identified to ensure its origin. Thus, with 100% autonomous supply of French oaks and fully integrated manufacturing, Tonnellerie Saury has complete control over the raw material for its production.
A Saury oak barrel undergoes very strict controls at every stage of its production. To begin with, the origin and assembly of the woods that will compose it are recorded. Its manufacturing processes in general and the intensity of the toasting in particular are noted.
At Tonnellerie Saury, quality is not just a word; it is a true philosophy. Our quality charter, strict controls, and certifications testify to our commitment to producing barrels that meet the highest expectations of our customers
