Kit & Kin has been awarded the highly coveted B Corp Certification, placing the earth-friendly baby brand among the world’s most sustainable and ethical businesses. The prestigious accolade recognises Kit & Kin as a leader in the global movement to create an inclusive, equitable and regenerative economy.
Since its launch in 2017, Kit & Kin has been an influential force for good in the nappy industry. The founding principles of the brand focus on sustainability and giving back, helping to look after people and the planet. These core values have helped to drive the brand’s success. They also provide an example to other businesses and encourage them to improve their practices.
In just five years, Kit & Kin’s accomplishments include:
- Developing the most accredited eco nappy on the planet. This includes FSC, Allergy Certified and Dermatest.
- Switching to carbon neutral production for its nappies in 2020. The nappies are also made using sustainably sourced, plant-based materials and are wrapped in sustainable packaging.
- Protecting thousands of acres of rainforest through its charitable foundation. Kit & Kin is the only nappy brand to purchase and protect acres of rainforest; for every 10 nappy subscriptions, it purchases one acre, helping to maintain this vital ecosystem for generations to come.
- Supporting rural communities in Guatemala, funding educational scholarships and healthcare clinics.
- Donating thousands of packs of nappies and wipes to baby banks across the UK to help families in need.
