The Raidlight teams are committed to designing high-performance, clever and comfortable products that are genuinely designed for running on all trails and in all races, from the desert of Jordan to the trails of the Grand Raid de la Réunion and the Ultra Trail du Mont Blanc..  

Discover our production workshop in the heart of the Chartreuse Massif 

After 10 years in the Loire, when Raidlight moved to the Chartreuse, Benoit Laval decided to open a textile workshop dedicated to lightweight, innovative products for trail runners. This workshop became operational in 2015, with a surface area of 500 m², equipped with around thirty machines.

In 2024, Raidlight expanded its production capacity by opening a second Made in France workshop in Veurey-Voroize, just outside Grenoble. With a production team of around 15 people, almost 40,000 items will be manufactured this year, including backpacks, carbon poles and technical jerseys. Made in France production now accounts for 20% of sales, and offers trail runners the chance to buy locally.

For example, Raidlight as a historic partner of the Grand Raid de la Réunion, produces a limited edition Made In France every year in its textile workshop. Raidlight also offers to customise French-made jerseys for clubs, races and companies, to order.

"It's a deliberate and voluntary choice to produce part of it in France to offer customers the choice of buying Made In France.’
