Our commitments
TUBULAR LIVESTOCK PRODUCTS MADE IN FRANCE
Driven by our exacting standards to go above and beyond legal requirements, we have created our own label to reflect our commitments:
Manufacturing our products in France guarantees full control over design, manufacturing, quality control and in-house logistics.
We use 95% French steel. Our tubes have the Véritube label, certifying their manufacture in France by Arcelor Mittal, in their plants at Lexy (Meurthe-et-Moselle) and Fresnoy-le-Grand (Aisne).
Our tubes are hot-dip galvanised by our partner ZINQ Val de Loire, whose workshops have been based in our production site since the early 1980s. The process uses a high-quality lead-free zinc.
How can you recognise a JOURDAIN product?
At JOURDAIN, every product reflects our know-how and our quality commitment.. To guarantee they are genuine, all our equipment carries a distinctive sign: the JOURDAIN brand or logo stamped directly on our products.
These visible and unique details are a genuine guarantee of reliability. They assure you that you have in your hands a product designed to last, meeting the high standards that have made our reputation.

To enable reprocessing or recovery, all waste generated by our business is sorted and recycled.
We favour the use of 95% water-based lubricants.

We seek to subcontract within France in order to reduce our carbon impact.
