Quality Reduces Footprint
The best way to reduce the environmental footprint from the products we buy and use is to chose products of high quality and durability, and at the same time take good care of them.
Factory life
We value long lasting relations and work together with all our suppliers in a long-term perspective. We have a limited number of manufacturers in order to secure good supervision. The production is based in China. We regularly visit the factories and have frequent meetings with them in Norway.
Sustainable products
Your child's well-being is our top priority. We're dedicated to using recycled plastic bottles for our materials.
Our FSC certification ensures responsible forestry practices, prioritizing local communities.
Our drinking bottles and lunch boxes are BPA-free, safeguarding your health. We meet EU's REACH regulations, prioritizing safety. For children's products, we go beyond regulations, testing to the strict EN71-3 standard.
Cooperations
RISE, a leading research institute, and Intertek, a global quality assurance expert, are crucial partners in ensuring our products meet the highest standards. RISE keeps us at the forefront of chemical and environmental matters, while Intertek's thorough inspections and testing guarantee top-notch quality. Together, they play a vital role in our commitment to excellence.
Social responsibility
We want to take responsibility for how our business affects people and the environment. For us, it’s about making conscious choices in our daily operations and working toward improvements where we can.
We focus especially on:
- Using materials and solutions that are more environmentally friendly
- Contributing to safe and fair working conditions with our partners
- Supporting aid organizations with school supplies for children in need
