Je suis Baptiste Vanotti, fondateur de Suppa, une entreprise innovante spécialisée dans la conception et le développement de produits techniques et durables.
Passionné depuis toujours par l’industrie ( et plus particulièrement par la plasturgie ) je suis né à Oyonnax le 29 juin 2009, au cœur de la Plastics Vallée en Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. J’ai grandi au contact direct des usines où travaillait ma famille, de mes grands-parents à mes parents. C’est dans cet environnement que j’ai découvert très tôt l’univers industriel : injection plastique, mise en pièce, conditionnement, logistique et expédition.
Dès mon plus jeune âge, j’ai eu accès à une imprimante 3D, ce qui m’a permis de concevoir mes premières inventions et de transformer des idées concrètes en objets fonctionnels. Aujourd’hui, j’utilise la modélisation 3D assistée par ordinateur pour développer des solutions qui allient performance, design et praticité.
J’ai d’abord conçu des supports pour pipettes pharmaceutiques, avant de lancer la gamme Vanotee Research, dédiée aux accessoires de golf, puis une gamme orientée biathlon.
Fin 2025, j’ai établi une collaboration commerciale avec Decathlon pour la distribution de l’ensemble de la gamme Vanotee Research. Ce partenariat marque une étape clé dans le développement de Suppa et ouvre la voie à une expansion à l’échelle internationale.
The Story of Suppa
Medicine pipette holders
The Birth of Suppa One
Using 3D modeling software, I created and printed a first prototype: a simple but effective support, made up of three rectangles with a circle to pass through the pipette. This model allowed the pipette to be held, but did not yet group the bottle. Seeing that this concept interested others, I continued to design and improve the product, adding a receptacle for the bottle. This is how Suppa One was born, combining practicality, hygiene and organization .
The evolution to Suppa Two
Although Suppa One allowed the pipette and bottle to be combined, it was still impractical to transport. I designed a two-part version that could be assembled, but it wasn't optimal. After several iterations, a new model was developed that combined portability, robustness, and ease of use . This product would become what we know today as Suppa Two , embodying the evolution of our pipette holder line.
Vanotee Research
The name Vanotee is a play on words between Vanotti , the founder's surname, and Tee , the golf accessory.
Limit tee loss
The main problem is the loss of tees , which forces golfers to buy them in large quantities, which is neither economical nor ecological. In 2023, I designed the first Vanotee , a set of six tees of different sizes pierced and connected by a string , allowing them to be kept together. This model was sold in two golf courses and was very popular for its simplicity and effectiveness.
Strengthen resistance
To solve the breakage problem, I started 3D modeling the tees, testing many versions. During an internship at the Pôle de la Plasturgie in Oyonnax , I was able to print my prototypes in TPU , a flexible and almost unbreakable plastic. Although this version was very strong, it still could not sink properly into the ground, which required several adjustments and iterations to end up with a reliable, practical and durable product.
