Our commitments
Selection of producers and raw materials
Origin of raw materials
Babynat selects the geographic origin of its ingredients with care, preferring local producers.
Babynat mainly uses French producers, in particular in the South West region. When this is not possible, it procures as often as possible from neighbouring European countries (Spain, Italy...).
For example, we invite you to discover the origins of the ingredients of the Pumpkin-Parsnip Baby Soup.
Quality of selected ingredients
Babynat is subject to the very strict specifications of child regulations.
We therefore have very strong requirements on the quality of the raw materials used. Rigorous checks are made on receiving the raw materials.
For example, the trout that you find in the Vegetables-Trout Menu comes from a 600ha lake in Arriege fed by pure water from the melting snow in the Pyrenees and where the fish are able to move about in a large volume of water.
We also consider the nutritional importance of the ingredients that we incorporate in our recipes to respond better to the baby's specific needs.
In its fruit juices, Babynat adds natural vitamin C from acerola, a small West Indian cherry that is one of the richest fruits in vitamin C.
Transparency
Babynat is the only infant brand to state the origin of the ingredients on its jars, soups and dishes and does this for transparency to the consumer.
The origins indicated on the products do change due to our requirements in selecting producers and the difficulty of procuring organic raw materials.
Babynat encourages you to read our labels, starting with the Vegetables and Veals Meals in Jars.
Sustainable relations with producers
Babynat endeavours to set up sustainable relations with its producers and gives particular importance to the construction of organic supply chains so as to be as close as possible to the producers.
For example, Babynat offers varied recipes using Bolivian fair trade quinoa
Unique guarantees in infant nutrition
Almost "home made" recipes rich in fruit and vegetables.
These recipes have no unnecessary additives.
For example, all our jars, soups and dishes have always been:
without added sugar,
without added salt
without thickeners
These recipes are prepared according to paediatric recommendations.
Babynat contributes to nutritional and taste education from the
child's first few months
Recipes matching baby's age
We adapt our recipes by removing the main recognised allergens (kiwi, celery...) and we endeavour as much as possible to offer milk, gluten and egg free recipes so that every baby, depending on its predisposition to allergies, can benefit from tasty foods, nutritionally adapted to his needs.
Discover our products age by age.
Babynat refuses to offer complete cereals because these are not advised before the age of 3 due to the insoluble fibres they contain that potentially irritate the digestive tract of babies and young children.
Exclusive recipes
Babynat is the only infant specialist offering organic trout from Ariege or fair trade quinoa.
An ideal way to vary baby's taste pleasures and make them discover original ingredients!
To start weaning, parsnip that has the shape and sweetness of carrot and the colour of turnip is an ideal ingredient. Discover our pure parsnip jars.
Organic and Respect for the Environment
Organic from infancy
Up to the age of 3, baby's body is immature, it is not capable of eliminating toxic substances. Faced with baby's fragility, infant regulations set composition requirements.
By using ingredients from organic agriculture Babynat meets these requirements as naturally as possible whilst preserving the environment.
In fact, organic agriculture remains the most natural way of avoiding the introduction of toxic substances: the production method encourages the use of natural fertilisers and the non-use of synthetic chemical products.
In addition, any use of GMOs and GMO derived products is excluded.
All organic products produced in the 27 European member states have to comply with the Council Regulation (EC) No 834/2007 of 28 June 2007 on organic production and labelling of organic products.
In most of the European countries a national logo is used to indicate that a product is organic and follows this Council regulation. For instance, France uses the AB logo and Germany uses the BIO logo.
Babynat is thus subject to two sets of regulations, those for infant food and those for organic agriculture.
Respect for the environment
Babynat uses raw materials from organic agriculture, so committing us to respect for the environment and respect for nature.
The organic production method is in fact based on non-polluting production methods (natural fertilisers, crop rotations...) that preserve the quality of the soils and water table.
By preserving the planet, are we not above all preserving our children's future?
Well being of men and animals
The organic production method respects the well being of animals (open air access, homeopathic preventive treatments) and of man (no GMO). Finally, organic values are close to those of fair trade, encouraging local production and equity.
Nutritional and taste quality
Organic agriculture preserves the nutritional and taste quality of the ingredients.
