We’ve been making planners since 1954. We create and design them in France with the greatest care, so that they follow you year to year and become memories.

We develop our expertise at the heart of our workshops in Nantes in France, where more than 200 people work every day, combining industrial and traditional skills. For 70 years, we have been committed to responsible production, supporting the local economy and promoting our French expertise. We are proud to produce 7.9 million planners and notebooks in France.
Step N°1 :
Each product is conceived, designed and imagined by our team of product managers.
Step N°2 :
The sheets are printed using offset and rotary presses that can produce planners and notebooks in up to 8 colours. We can print and turn over sheets of paper in a single pass to colour them with a maximum of four colours per side, and thus offer colourful diary grids.
Our paper comes from the Clairefontaine manufacturing site.
Step N°3 :
This machine allows us to fold the sheets in the order of the pages we want, to form books of sheets.
Step N°4 :
Once the folding is complete, these books of sheets are assembled and sewn together in a single operation, using a sewing machine, to form the interior of a notebook or planner.
The binding is then carried out by a machine adapted to the type of binding chosen.
Step N°5 :
Our covers are cut from large rolls of material. Our planners or notebooks can have a removable cover, nested (padded on a cardboard), integra (printed on a cardboard) or simply laminated and cut to the planner or notebook format.
Step N°6 :
Using high-frequency or heat-set machines, we mark the covers with a “cliché”, a metal stamp that allows us to mark motifs, decorations, our logo and the year for our planners.
Step N°7 :
Using 8 semi-automatic robots and 5 manual flatbed machines, we automatically stitch the edges of the covers.
Assisted by an operator, the finishing touches are made by hand to offer you great quality covers.
Step N°8 :
The final stage consists of assembling the cover with the interior of the book and adding any options (telephone book, repositionable pages, etc).
Depending on the product, the covers can be applied directly by the finishing machines or assembled by hand.
