Ecokins sustainable plush toys are made from 100% used recycled PET water bottles and recycled paper to save energy and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Wild Republic continues to stick to its corporate promise to commit to the planet by reducing plastic waste that pollutes our environment. Our main goal is to ensure that 60 million disposable water bottles do not end up in the dump every day. How do we make the adorable Ecokins toy stuffed animals from water bottles? First, the water bottles are shredded, cleaned, disinfected and melted. Then the fibers are spun into an ultra-soft fabric yarn. The fabric, the fibre filling and the threads are made from this recycled material. It is incredible how soft and cuddly this plush toy feels considering that it was made from water bottles. Thanks to the embroidered eyes and nose made from recycled threads, they prove to be a safe soft toy for babies. We also use tags made from recycled paper printed with soy-based ink and cotton cords instead of plastic. Wild Republic goes one step further by using biodegradable mailers. Ecokins 8" sea otters are made from 7 recycled water bottles. Ecokins is currently the only plush toy made from 100% recycled material. Our mission has always been to make toys and plush toys that awaken curiosity about the wildlife and bring children the wonders of nature. Wild Republic as a toy and soft toy brand meets the strictest safety standards for toys worldwide.
