200,000 masks of solidarity: the Comptoir des Tissus team and its partners tackle the Covid-19 epidemic

It was with great trepidation that we had to face the Covid-19 epidemic in the spring of 2020, when we were forced to close our shop in view of the general lockdown. But the Comptoir des Tissus team didn't stop there. Instead of resting, we reached out to associations and launched an initiative to supply the fabric needed to make an impressive number of masks, all in record time.

This challenge was met thanks to the inexhaustible talent of the seamstresses and dressmakers who worked tirelessly during this critical period. But these brave people, who have since become invaluable customers, have told us time and time again that our superior quality fabrics enabled them to work with ease and pleasure, even during long hours of labour.

In collaboration with various organisations such as the Groupe de Solidarité Masques Ouest Toulousain, dozens of town halls, including Saint-Alban, and companies such as GLS, we have been able to provide more than 200,000 masks to EHPADs, schools, employees and people in need.

The Comptoir des Tissus team would like to express its deepest gratitude to everyone who participated in any way in this altruistic initiative. Your support has enabled us to give the best of ourselves and to serve our community. We hope we have answered the call of those who needed us at this difficult time, and we are proud of the contribution we have made together.

And here’s the work!!!
Once again, we’d like to thank the team at Comptoir des Tissus in Saint Alban for their great generosity!
Together with the Masques Ouest Toulousain Solidarity Group, they gave us a DONATION of 1600 mask kits each!
If you’d like to thank them, please leave them a note on their Facebook page: Le comptoir des tissus
Thanks also to Aleck from Lanna Coutures in Aussone, who helped cut the fabric!
Remember that distribution will take place at Wednesday’s collection, in proportion to the masks donated.
On that note of good news, have a great weekend confinou (as Hélène Larrouy says) and take care of yourselves!

We worked with le comptoir des tissus to make our made-to-measure banquettes on the top level of the Tower. They were very professional and the work was impeccable! Their advice was very pertinent. Despite the rounded shapes that were difficult to achieve, I’m very happy with the result! I’d definitely recommend working with them, and don’t hesitate to come and see what they’ve done for us!

I had chosen a fabric on the internet and the Mr called to tell me that it might not be the right choice given the description I had given him of my project. They sent me a sample of the 2 fabrics and I was able to make my choice from home in real life. The people there are really friendly and competent. I live 500 kms from the shop and the exchange I had really saved me from making a mistake in my choice. Many thanks again for your kindness and professionalism.
