What makes our sustainable soft toys sustainable?
At Loved Before every soft toy we rehome has had previous lives and adventures Donated toys undergo a meticulous spa treatment & restoration to ensure they are ready for their new home. Sustainable toys that not only bring joy but also a unique story reborn.
The pre-loved nature of of sustainable toys mean they will never end up in landfill. So far by recycling toys we have managed to save over 250 tonnes of waste from landfill. In addition, we estimate that with every toy re-homed and saved from landfill we stop around 1kg of CO2 being produced.
Join us in our mission – by the end of 2023 is to have rehomed over 10,000 eco toys to new homes around the world. We believe that through the medium of teddy bears we can educate the next generation that sustainable consumerism does not mean a compromise in quality.
All our soft toys are sustainable, environmentally friendly and because of their stories, they are even more special then buying new!
