The French Touch of a product designed and made in France

The quality of French creations is recognized and universally praised worldwide. The Élhée French baby bottle is no exception. Through it, we wanted to innovate and break the codes of a market that was both too masculine and monotonous.

Our own French Touch? A unique, round design, emotional and reassuring, a clean design made entirely of medical-grade silicone, and a style as timeless as it is unmatched, created for the enjoyment of babies and their moms alike.

So, to convey authenticity and empowerment in the French way, we chose to create our French baby bottle in the heart of the Rhône-Alpes region. The goal? To control 100% of the design process and promote the bibROND throughout the region and beyond.

• For you, the Élhée baby bottle is eco-designed. Its creation is undertaken with the greatest care for feeding babies up to 3 years and beyond, with respect for their health and daily needs.
• For you, Élhée has chosen local, short-supply chain manufacturing. The French bottle and its packaging are developed in France, in the Rhône-Alpes region.
• For you, the inspection, assembly, and packaging of Élhée BibRONDs are entrusted to an ESAT (Work and Support Service Establishment) located in Saint-Laurent-en-Royans, in the Drôme department. That’s where Amandine, Diane, Séverine, and Nadia, along with Fabienne, look after your bottles and prepare them for their journey to you.

5 quality criteria for a 100% Made in France brand

Because choosing your baby's first bottle is a truly meaningful decision, it leads to questions and deep reflection for young parents, especially for new mothers. Capacity, materials, origin, manufacturing process, practicality, brand promise, originality, design... every aspect is scrutinized to find the bottle that perfectly meets each person's requirements. That’s why, for the Élhée French baby bottle, we dreamed of and demanded the best.

• Healthy and safe for babies, the Élhée bottle and its physiological nipples are made from medical-grade silicone, hypoallergenic, chemical-free, and perfectly suited for food contact.
• Innovative, Élhée’s physiological nipples have a shape close to the mother’s breast. Thanks to their design, they support the proper development of your child’s palate and mouth. They’re also equipped with an anti-colic valve at the base to limit air intake with each feeding, and offer 3 different flow rates to suit your child’s age, feeding style, and preference.
• Cutting-edge and patented, the Élhée French bottle features an exclusive closure system that ensures the milk is only in contact with the safe silicone of the bibROND and its nipple. You’ll also be provided with a seal making the bibROND airtight and allowing you to easily convert it into a small container.
• Eco-friendly and mindful of its environmental and social footprint, Élhée follows a sustainable approach at every stage in the creation of its bottles, from production to shipping, including design and purchasing of materials (innovative medical silicone for bibROND, FSC-certified papers and Imprim’Vert-labeled plant-based inks for booklets and packaging...)—excellence every step of the way.
• Durable, our French bottle extends its lifespan as much as possible not only thanks to its semi-rigid design and unbreakable silicone material, but also through the virtuous practice of the circular economy.

The first French baby bottle imagined by a woman

Behind the first fully round French baby bottle is a brilliant and bold woman, a pioneer in a traditionally male-dominated industry. A seasoned businesswoman, but above all a sensitive woman and even more, a mother of three, Allison Piraud dreamed of reinventing the baby bottle.

To do this, she drew inspiration from deep within herself, her experiences, her life, her convictions, and also her ideas. Passionate about art and design, Allison wanted a bibROND that would stand as a banner for French-made bottles by its remarkable aesthetic. Practical and original at the same time, the Élhée bibROND is as much an impulsive purchase with a sensory and emotional aspect as it is a genuine solution for the future.

Tired of broken bottles and discouraged by plastic baby bottles that are harmful to babies’ health, Allison gathered the best manufacturers to achieve her revolution: to offer all mothers—whether breastfeeding or bottle-feeding—a feminine, safe, and healthy bottle to take anywhere. Like the mother’s breast, the Élhée French baby bottle is soft, flexible, tender, and nourishing. A true milky pause.

Élhée, a French gem to discover and support

Today, step by step, Élhée is taking off. With a range of 3 bottle sizes, 3 flow rates for its physiological nipples, and a cotton swaddle to purchase in its store, thanks to you our brand is universally acclaimed. We can never thank you enough for raising the bibROND to the rank of the safest and most innovative French baby bottle.

To our greatest pride, Élhée received the “Janus de la Santé” 2019 award for its new-generation bottle, now carries the “Go for Good” label for its environmental commitment, is supported by the Orange Group through the #FemmesEntrepreneuses program. We also participated in the global event highlighting solutions for the planet: #ChangeNOW2022.

So, once again, thank you. Thank you for your warm welcome, thank you for your support, thank you for your feedback and for all the shares you give us, which each day shape the beautiful story of the French Élhée baby bottle.
