For over 30 years, Novalac has been committed to providing nutritional solutions adapted to the specific needs of babies, while meeting the expectations of parents concerned about their well-being. Founded in 1991 by a team of pharmacists, pediatricians and researchers, the brand quickly earned the trust of families thanks to its innovative approach and the impeccable quality of its products.
Why Novalac? In Latin, "Nova-Lac" means "new milks". This name reflects the brand's ambition: to offer innovative, enriched formulas to meet the evolving needs of infants and support every stage of their growth. Novalac doesn't just develop products: it works to improve the quality of life of babies and simplify the daily lives of parents.
The brand attaches particular importance to the serenity of feeding moments. Because each feeding is a moment of complicity and tenderness, Novalac does everything in its power to ensure that parents feel fully supported in their role. This is how the brand has become an essential ally in the lives of young families.
Novalac was born of a strong conviction: every child is unique and deserves a diet adapted to his or her specific needs. From the outset, the founding team worked hand-in-hand with experts in pediatrics and nutrition to develop infant formulas capable of responding to the problems encountered by parents, whether it be mixed breastfeeding, the transition to infant milk, or the particular needs of babies with a sweet tooth.
From the outset, the brand has relied on solid scientific expertise to design superior quality products. The Novalac Laboratories research center, based in Rennes, works closely with renowned research institutes such as the Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique (INRA). These partnerships enable Novalac to offer formulas based on the latest discoveries in infant nutrition.
But innovation doesn't stop there. Novalac has also integrated fundamental values such as respect for the environment and animal welfare into its production processes. For example, the milk used in its formulas is collected from selected farms that meet strict criteria in terms of breeding practices and quality.
For over two decades, Novalac has distinguished itself by its ability to evolve with families' needs. Our goal? To enable every child to grow up in the best possible conditions, while offering parents the peace of mind they seek.
The brand places quality at the heart of its concerns. Each formula is made from carefully selected ingredients and subjected to rigorous controls. Novalac's production plants comply with the most stringent standards, including ISO 22 000, guaranteeing optimum management of food safety.
Novalac is also committed to being an active player in paediatric research. In addition to developing its own clinical studies, the brand supports research projects aimed at improving understanding of babies' nutritional needs and promoting harmonious growth. These efforts perfectly illustrate Novalac's mission: to support families with kindness and expertise, while contributing to scientific progress.
The manufacture of Novalac infant formulas is based on a rigorous process designed to guarantee product safety, quality and traceability.
It all starts on carefully selected farms, where cows are raised in compliance with animal welfare standards. The milk, collected daily, is delivered within 24 to 48 hours to the production sites to preserve its nutritional properties.
Milk processing follows a precise procedure:
Each step is carried out with methodical precision to guarantee a composition perfectly adapted to babies' needs.
Before being packaged, formulas undergo a series of in-depth tests to verify their compliance with the strictest quality standards. These analyses guarantee that each product complies with current standards and meets parents' expectations.
Novalac has four production sites in France, Germany and Spain. This strategic location enables us to maintain close control over every phase of the process and ensure consistent quality.
Novalac offers a wide range of products adapted to the specific needs of babies, according to their age and nutritional particularities. Here is a detailed presentation of these formulas:
Each product is designed to simplify the daily routine of parents, while guaranteeing optimal nutritional intake for babies.
