Kaloo

Kaloo came to life because of a father's dream to invent different soft toys for his little boy. As a modern father, his vision was softness and comfort using innovative materials in a rainbow full of colours. His aim was to create the doudou his little boy had dreamt of. A little bear, an emotional symbol for all toddlers, was then chosen as the brand's emblematic animal. Because dreams can come true, Kaloo came to life one beautiful morning in late 1998.

Kaloo is committed to preserving the environment, whilst maintaining the high quality standards associated with their brand. Their products are free from toxic substances detrimental to both man and the environment. They are reducing their environmental footprint by creating eco-responsible products, such as the ‘Naturel by Kaloo’, made from 100% organic cotton fiber and displayed in 100% recycled paper boxes. Their products are all designed with optimum usage in mind, to avoid any unnecessary waste of material. Even their packaging is reusable.

Kaloo takes great care from their French designers to their production facilities located in France, India and China. Their China production is based in their own facilities of whose production is solely focused on Kaloo. As Kaloo is geared for independent specialty distribution their production runs are manageable and their long lead-times allow them to get it right.

Each product is put through rigorous quality control tests to ensure sewing resistance, torque, tension, drop, impact, fire resistance and toxicity. All Kaloo products bear the CE stamp, synonymous with compliance to European safety standards.

Their products meet or exceed both The American ASTM and European EN-71 safety standards. Kaloo is a world Brand and must conform to the highest criteria set by countries to ensure the integrity of the Kaloo Brand. This includes pull testing all their toys’ attachments and seams, toxicity and color-fastness for all dyes, even the ink on the labels.

The unique faces on all their Kaloo animals and dolls are computer embroidered for additional piece of mind. The vast majority of all Kaloo products are machine washable and machine dryable, because beauty without practicality is simply not parent friendly.

Once arranged in their round gift boxes, a Kaloo soft toy just has to wait for a baby’s arms...
