Sustainability at Kidzroom
At Kidzroom, care for the planet and a sustainable future are central. For us, sustainability is not just a trend, but an essential value that we cherish. We realise that the world in which young adventurers grow up requires loving care and responsibility. That is why we are committed to making a positive impact on the environment by making sustainable choices in the production of our products.
Recycled materials and in-house production for a better environment
Most of our bags are made from recycled plastic, using mainly rPET - recycled polyethylene terephthalate. Moreover, we have complete control over our production from start to finish. This means that we closely monitor every aspect of the process, allowing us to guarantee quality and ensure that each product meets our high standards. Managing production ourselves also offers other advantages, such as flexibility and the ability to respond quickly to sustainable innovations. This allows us to continuously strive for improvement and have the control to meet all environmental and social standards.
rPET is extracted from used (soft drink) bottles handed in by consumers. After collection, the bottles are carefully sorted, washed, ground and converted into high-quality fabrics. By reusing rPET, we reduce the need for new raw materials and contribute to a cleaner environment, with less plastic in our oceans and habitats.
The advantages of rPET
Fewer raw materials: rPET is made from recycled PET packaging, which reduces the need for new oil for plastic production. Less plastic in nature means a healthier environment for animals and fewer microplastics in our food.
Lower CO2 emissions: Using rPET significantly reduces CO2 emissions. Recycling 1 kg of PET plastic saves as much as 3 kg of CO2 emissions.
Closed recycling process: rPET is recyclable and can be used again and again as packaging material, in drinking bottles and other products.
Production with care in Europe and China
We aim to produce our products as locally as possible, which not only ensures quality but also reduces our carbon footprint. Much of our production takes place at our factory in northern Macedonia. If production in China is required, we prefer to transport the products by train to minimise CO2 emissions.
Kidzroom and the BSCI quality mark
Our products are made and designed with care and attention in the Netherlands. Kidzroom meets the social requirements of the BSCI quality mark, which guarantees labour rights such as a minimum wage, safe working conditions and a ban on child and forced labour.
