WHY BAMBOO?
Bamboo is stronger than steel and heartier than most hardwood, making it a versatile and valuable building material. Bamboo is also eco-friendly. It produces more oxygen and absorbs more carbon dioxide than trees. While hardwood takes 30-50 years to mature, bamboo takes between 3-5 years and requires no pesticides or chemicals to encourage the maturation process.
What makes Kinderfeets a sustainable company?
Kinderfeets products are made using fast-growing Bamboo, an extremely adaptable and resilient crop that has the ability to self-regenerate. Bamboo also doesn’t require toxic chemicals or artificial pesticides for growth and maintenance, which makes it both toxin-free and more cost-effective.
We also use non-toxic, water-based lacquers, minimal packaging and recycled paper for product information to set children up for a lifetime of planet-friendly living.
Furthermore, part of our annual profits is put toward Trees for the Future – a nonprofit organization that partners with businesses like us to plant trees and combat deforestation.
What makes Kinderfeets’ products safer for my child than others on the market?
The intentional and functional design behind each Kinderfeets product ensures child safety and user-friendliness. All products are handmade using sustainable materials, non-toxic finishings and non-formaldehyde glue to protect both children and the environment. Products are also safety tested for the European, North American and Australian markets: including CE, ASTM, EN71 and AS/NZS 8124.
How will Kinderfeets products help my child develop?
Kinderfeets’ active toys support children in their development of gross motor skills, balance and coordination – all while encouraging them to gain self-esteem through independent play. Each Kinderfeets product is manufactured to stimulate a child’s imagination, increase their capacity for joy, support their development and encourage their overall growth!
