Lafuma — French garden furniture, loungers and outdoor accessories

Lafuma FOLLOWED FOR DECADES

Lafuma: A BRAND IN THE HEART OF THE FRENCH PEOPLE

In 1930, the three brothers Alfred, Victor, and Gabriel Lafuma created the eponymous brand in their small workshop in Anneyron in the Drôme. With the invention of the metal frame, they revolutionized the backpack. Over the years, the brothers Lafuma diversified their skills and created camping furniture, textiles, and shoes.

Today based in Annecy, the team revisits the collections, preserving the know-how that has made the brand internationally renowned. 

A TECHNICAL HERITAGE

The mountain has been the very first playground of Lafuma and the history of mountaineering tells of its pioneering knowledge of equipment. In 1953, its famous "Tyrolean" bag climbed Everest on the back of Sherpa Tensing. This Nepalese, then 39 years old, was the first man with Edmund Hillary to climb and reach this mythical summit via the Tibetan north face.

On the technical side, seasoned mountaineers have also accompanied Lafuma in its developments. If only one should be mentioned, Gaston Rebuffat, a leading figure in French mountaineering, has long been the privileged technical advisor of Lafuma

Today, Lafuma designs its collections for extraordinary and ordinary adventures. Everyone has their Everest.

Lafuma: A BRAND COMMITTED TO THE ENVIRONMENT

Sustainable development is embedded in the genes of Lafuma. Reducing our impact and contributing to environmental protection have always been part of our priorities.
Since its creation, Lafuma has brought together nature enthusiasts, eager to leave their children a world in which it is good to explore. Today, more than ever, this is the guiding principle of all our actions. 

In the early 90s, Lafuma questioned its role in environmental protection. 

An eco-responsible vision transformed into actions. On the ground, Lafuma became a partner of France Nature Environnement in 1992 and WWF in 2000. And on the product side, Lafuma developed its first recycled cotton bag in 1993

Today, 80% of the collection is eco-designed. These products are identified by our Low Impact™ label, certifying their traceability and eco-design. 

Lafuma is also a community engaged on the ground. Once a year, for over 10 years, Lafuma gathers its community in Chamonix and organizes the Responsible Mountain operation, a day of awareness-raising about reducing our impact in the mountains as well as in the city. In 10 years, more than 28 tons of waste have been removed from the mountains
