Bouillon

What they make

According to their website, Bouillon is a French manufacturer based in Caudry, tracing its origins to before the Second World War and formally established in 1949; it currently employs around 25 people and has been part of the Innov'axe group since 2021. The company makes technical textiles from high-density polyethylene: granules are extruded into primary film, which is slit into narrow strips and knitted into fabric, with some ranges calendered on heated rollers for dimensional stability. Output includes privacy-screening and shading rolls and windbreak netting for gardens, farms and public spaces, curing nets for the food industry, protective wrapping nets for cable reels and PVC pipes, tubular nets used to contain depollution products in waterway remediation, and fire-resistant (M1-rated) fabric for events and festivals. Production offcuts are recycled through regeneration partners. Products reach both trade customers and individual consumers, the latter via the company's own online shop, brise-vue.com. Roughly a quarter of turnover is exported, mainly to Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Italy and Spain.
