Children’s products and the environment

Furniture made especially for children is not a modern phenomenon, but has existed independent of how adults' views of children have changed.

Actually, it was not until the twentieth century that mass production allowed children's products and furniture, such as highchairs, cribs, and toys to be made for the general public.

Today, with more than four million babies born worldwide each year; providing baby furniture, accessories, equipment, and toys amounts to large emissions and energy consumption in production, transport, and eventually waste management and recycling.

Lower production values and an inability for products to adapt to your child’s development increase the replacement rate for many pieces of your child’s own furniture, equipment and toys. Replacement that is not only costly, but also environmentally unfriendly.

Choosing a highchair, crib, or other essential that has the ability to adapt to the development of your child is beneficial for your wallet and the environment.

Children’s furniture and toys which can support your child’s needs not only for a short period of time, but throughout their infancy and childhood show that you care for your child and the world that they will one day inherit.

In today’s modern society, caring for your child means much more than providing them with safety, comfort, and protection. Caring for your child means caring for the things your child needs. And your child’s highchair, crib, stroller and toys are all necessary items that come with a price tag. A price paid not only by you, but for non-adapting and non-durable items, by the environment as well.
