At Iku Baby, we are dedicated to creating baby clothing that is not only stylish, practical, and comfortable but also environmentally responsible and sustainable. Our commitment to sustainability encompasses every aspect of our production process, from the raw materials we use to the longevity and lifecycle of our products. Here are the core principles that guide our sustainable practices for our baby clothing:
SUSTAINABILITY
Crafted from 100% organic cotton and treated
with natural lanolin as a softener, our clothing
ensures the highest level of comfort and
safety for your baby’s delicate skin.
Sustainability Commitment
Additionally, the brand has taken steps to minimize its environmental impact by eschewing plastic in packaging, opting instead for eco-friendly alternatives that align with its values of sustainability and stewardship.
Certified Organic Cotton
We are proud to use 100% certified organic cotton in all our baby garments. Organic cotton is grown without harmful pesticides or synthetic fertilizers, reducing environmental impact and promoting healthier ecosystems. By choosing organic cotton, we support sustainable farming practices that protect both the planet and the people who cultivate these precious resources.
Lanolin Finish for Fabric
To ensure the highest quality and longevity of our baby clothing, we use lanolin for fabric finishing. This natural finish enhances the durability and softness of our baby clothes, providing a comfortable and long-lasting wear experience. Lanolin is a sustainable alternative to synthetic finishes, aligning with our commitment to eco-friendly production methods. Additionally, it makes the fabric healthy to wear and gives it a natural softness.
High-Quality, Long-Lasting, and Gender-Free Products
We believe in creating baby clothing that stands the test of time. Our designs are meticulously crafted to be durable and timeless, reducing the need for frequent replacements and minimizing waste. By prioritizing quality over quantity, we encourage our customers to invest in pieces that will remain a staple in their baby’s wardrobe for years to come. Our products are also designed to be gender-free, offering versatile and inclusive options for all babies. We believe in promoting equality and inclusivity through our designs, ensuring that our clothing can be enjoyed by every baby, regardless of gender.
Water-Saving Production Processes
Our baby clothes are pre-washed, which uses significantly less water compared to home washing. Home washing typically involves multiple small loads of laundry, with each load consuming approximately 50 liters of water. In contrast, our pre-washing process involves washing in large batches, which reduces water usage by about 30% compared to home washing. This method conserves water and minimizes overall consumption.
Problem-Solving, Multi-Use Products
Our baby products are designed to be versatile and functional, addressing specific needs without being limited to single-use. Whether it’s our adaptive clothing for growing babies or multifunctional pieces for parents on the go, we focus on creating solutions that add value and convenience to our customers’ lives while promoting a sustainable lifestyle.
Ethical Producers and Compliance
We partner with producers who share our commitment to ethical practices and sustainability. Our suppliers are certified by SEDEX, which demonstrates that they meet high standards in fair labor practices, safe working conditions, and environmental management. This certification provides transparency and assurance that our supply chain operates in a socially responsible manner.
