Sustainability is at our core
7 years and counting...
We've dedicated the last 7 years to creating socially and environmentally responsible products that are better for bub and better for the planet. It is our mission to continue creating a better future for the generations to come.
WHY ORGANIC COTTON?
SAFER FOR BUB
Organic cotton is grown without the use of toxic synthetic pesticides, herbicides or fertilizers, ensuring that bub is not exposed to any harmful chemicals, which the long-term effects are still unknown.
ETHICALLY PRODUCED
Using organic cotton ensures that not only the end-user but any person involved in any part of the bubnest-production-process is working in a healthy environment safe from toxic chemicals.
BETTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Organic cotton is environmentally friendly and is grown without pesticides and toxic synthetic fertilizers. Due to improved soil quality, organic cotton uses significantly less water and energy, and it releases less greenhouse gases.
WHY ORGANIC SILK COTTON?
The bolsters in the Bubnest® Baby Nests are filled with Organic Silk Cotton. Organic Silk Cotton grows on the Kapok Tree also known as Ceiba Tree. It is an evergreen tree which grows naturally in Jungle Country areas as opposed to being farmed.
SOFT & BREATHABLE
Silk Cotton is a true 100% Organic soft and breathable material. Silk Cotton is also incredibly light in weight, it weighs only one-eighth as much as cotton. It is commonly used as stuffing in organic pillows, mattresses and upholstery. Much like Silk, Silk Cotton is also incredibly soft, lightweight and lustrous to rest on - only the best for Bubnest babies.
MOISTURE RESISTANT
It is a moisture resistant, quick drying and resilient fibre.
REGULATES BODY TEMP
Silk Cotton fibre is famous for how well it regulates body heat. Silk Cotton is known to reduce the heat from the body and make for a sound and safer sleeping environment.
TOXIN-FREE
Both the Kapok Tree and Silk Cotton Fibre are not treated with any fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides. This makes Silk Cotton 100% free of harmful chemicals and toxins which means, in comparison to synthetic or heavily sprayed natural fibres, it is a healthier and safer option for every living creature and the environment.
100% SUSTAINABLE
Silk Cotton is biodegradable and environmentally friendly. The harvesting of Silk Cotton Fibre does not impact the tree's integrity, making Silk Cotton profoundly sustainable. When exposed to the correct conditions, Silk Cotton can return to nature by biodegradation in a matter of weeks.
CIRCULAR ECONOMY
At Bubnest, we are passionate about enabling planet-positive solutions to future-proof the world and ensure a better tomorrow for our babies. Known as the ‘Circular Economy’, our practices are guided by three simple principles: designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use, and regenerating natural systems.
Put simply, at Bubnest, we specialise in creating high-quality baby products from natural materials, while ensuring they can return to earth with little or no impact.
