A brand born around fire...
It all started by a campfire, with a cauldron blackened by the flames, and the desire to simply get together with friends.
For more than 10 years, we have been passionate about bushcraft , bivouacs , and outdoor cooking .
From this passion was born Approche Libre : a French brand, from the Alpes-Maritimes , independent, which designs durable and useful objects for living in freedom and cooking outside in a cauldron.

-
Laser engraved , without ink or plastic, on tieul plywood
-
Strong and durable , even in wet conditions
