Apron 406 in white linen lafont

Lafont designs an apron in recycled linen and polyester

After fifteen years of absence from the catering market, the Lafont brand is announcing a strong comeback in 2018, with two hundred new references for the hotel and restaurant industry. The new collection is resolutely innovative and sustainable: French fabrics, developed and woven in Laval at TDV Industries® and manufactured in the group's factories.

The brand, which was born in 1844 and claims to be the father of workwear, intends to build on its heritage and its good knowledge of the trades to offer comfortable and stylish clothing. Inspired by the 406 bib and brace overalls created in 1954, the brand has created a 100% French kitchen and dining apron, the "Tablier 406", made from a linen-based fabric produced in the north of France, combined with recycled polyester from plastic bottles.

Sales and Marketing Director Lafont


"By replacing conventional cotton with linen, Lafont is promoting proximity: the linen is grown in Hauts-de-France, woven and dyed in Laval and the finished 406 product is made in Saint-Étienne in the CEPOVETT Group workshop. This exemplary industrial value chain pays tribute to the French know-how to which the brand has always been attached: making ethical, technical and responsible professional clothing."
