Feel great about where it comes from
Raw materials from Europe? No - Brazil - we are not thrilled about this because it's far away (transport carbon emissions). But we do have assurance that no rainforest was removed to create the sugarcane fields:
The sugarcane is grown in a different region of Brazil far from the Amazon rainforest
The Brazilian government doesn't allow new sugarcane plantations because they feel the country has enough
Organic? Yes >70% of the sugarcane is organically-grown
Manufactured in Europe? Yes - Netherlands
What's it made from? Bioplastic (specifically Green PE) - an innovative, carbon-neutral material made from the leftovers after sugarcane is harvested. It's carbon-neutral because plants absorb carbon as they grow - whereas petroleum-based plastic has a carbon footprint of up to 6 times its own weight in CO2. Bioplastic is fully recyclable at end of life along with petro-plastics. Think of it as FairTrade coffee - looks the same, tastes the same, but has a very different impact on the world because of how it's produced.
What's it packaged in? Sustainability-certified* cardboard box, bioplastic bag (also made from sugarcane, recyclable including in Ireland)
Shipping packaging from manufacturer to us: Cardboard only
Plastic-free? 100% free from petroleum-derived plastic - made from bioplastic, see above for the difference
Vegan? Yes!
Animal-cruelty-free? Yes
Reused upcycled or recycled? No
Feel great about where it goes after you've used it
Biodegradable / compostable? Not biodegradable (but still really good for our planet because it's made from plants (not petroleum), can be used for generations and then recycled
Reusable refillable? Yes
Recyclable? Yes 100%
Feel great about you and your child using it
Great for ages: 3+ - warning: containssmall parts which are a hazard to younger children
Shelf life: Indefinite
Awards: DIN CERTCO certificate of bio-based materials
Safety standards met: EN71 EU toy safety standards
Solvent-free? Yes
Gluten-free? Yes
Peanut-free? Yes
Soy-free? Yes
Lactose-free? Yes
Easy to wash-off clothes skin? N/A
