You knew the appellations of controlled origin for champagne or wine … Today, SAAMP is the only French company able to display the Guaranteed France Origin on the precious metals market. All SAAMP semi-finished products are 100% certified Origine France Garantie.
What does this certification consist of? What are the advantages for the customer?
Interview with Sébastien Canesson, Sales Manager France and Director of the SAAMP Paris Agency.
SÉBASTIEN CANESSON: This certification was created in June 2010 following the publication of the Yves Légo report, then deputy for Seine et Marne, devoted to the France brand.
It is the result of a collective approach by actors who wish to work together to promote "production in France". Through this certification, we promote industrial and artisanal know-how.
Two obligations to obtain it:
S. CANESSON: An audit is carried out by an independent certification body. This confers an indisputable characteristic! The Made in France is only a statement affixed to products manufactured at one point in the manufacturing process. We speak of French origin, SAAMP supplies recovered, refined and produced gold on the national market.
S. CANESSON: The promotion of French know-how. We provide the consumer with traceability information on a luxury product entirely of French origin. Three strategic axes have been defined: Refining, Analysis, Finishing. It is total control of the life cycle of precious metals.
S. CANESSON: Our positioning is obvious. We set ourselves apart from all our competitors by providing this guarantee. SAAMP is the only founder, refiner, preparer who informs and disseminates French know-how. It must be highlighted!
100% of our semi-finished products are certified Origine France Garantie: ingots, fine gold pellets (gold, silver and platinum alloys for lost wax casting), tubes, planes, wires, welds.
Many craftsmen and manufacturers support us in this process. We are sure that the big French luxury brands will join. French production is still there … Consumers can be sure that precious metals can meet all criteria of traceability, quality and ethics in the internal market. As a reminder, SAAMP is also RJC COC. Today, there is no traceability on the silver, apart from this certification which gives an indication of provenance and sets us apart from the competition.
S. CANESSON: Have you been to the Origin France Garantie site? All sectors of activity are concerned. Many companies from all sectors (TEFAL, LES SAVONS DE MARSEILLE MARIUS FABRE, INVICTA, etc.) have applied for and obtained the Origine France Garantie certification.
Why should precious metals be the only ones that cannot meet this expectation?
The consumer feels a strong need to buy French, he wants to be reassured about the origin of the product. We value ethical, environmental work on gold and other precious metals. We supply ourselves on the French market, we recycle and produce.
S. CANESSON: It makes sense. SAAMP is structurally built around the recycling, refining and production of semi-finished products of precious metals, in France. It’s our identity. This certification is more recognition of our development strategy on the national market unlike the competition.
It is only at SAAMP that you will find semi-finished products (in gold, silver and platinum) certified Origine France Garantie.
We're not going to hide our pride …
