Manufactured in Europe? Yes - UK
What's it made from? Bioplastic - an innovative, carbon-neutral material made from plants, making it carbon-neutral because plants absorb carbon as they grow - whereas petroleum-based plastic has a carbon footprint of up to 6 times its own weight in CO2.
What's it packaged in? Sustainability-certified* card sleeve that is sealed with a cellulose sticker that is biodegradable. It folds out to reveal instructions on how to use the sticks.
Shipping packaging from manufacturer to us: Cardboard only
Plastic-free? 100% free of petroleum-derived plastic. Made of bioplastic (from plants)
Vegan? Yes
Animal-cruelty-free? Yes
Reused upcycled or recycled? No

* We're not allowed mention which certificate because of bizarre bureaucracy, for details search our site for 'Not allowed to say FSC'.

Feel great about you and your child using it

Great for ages: Molding it involves hot water so only for people able to manage that safely. Once molded, it's safe for all ages but I wouldn't chew on it, and remember any small item presents a choking hazard to a young child

Awards: N/A
Safety standards met: EU safety standards
Solvent-free? Yes
Gluten-free? Yes
Peanut-free? Yes
