When we think of childhood, we picture soft cuddles, comforting toys, and favourite teddies clutched close at night. But most soft toys on the market today, no matter how cute, are made from polyester: a synthetic, plastic-based fabric that sheds microplastics and carries hidden toxins.
At Pure Earth Collection, we believe playtime should be as safe and natural as possible. That’s why we designed our Organic Cotton Teddies a trio of completely plastic-free companions made for healthier cuddles and a cleaner planet.
The Problem with Polyester Plushies
Polyester is in most soft toys. It’s cheap, soft, and easy to manufacture, but it’s also plastic. With every snuggle, polyester toys can shed tiny microplastic fibres into the air, onto your child’s skin, and into their mouth. Babies and toddlers, who often suck or chew on their toys, are especially vulnerable.
These particles can be ingested or inhaled, and although they’re invisible to the eye, they add to a child’s toxic load over time. At Pure Earth Collection, reducing this exposure is at the heart of everything we do and our teddies are no exception.
What Makes Our Organic Cotton Teddies Different
Every element of our soft toys is thoughtfully chosen:
✔️ 100% Organic Cotton Plush Outer
✔️ Biodegradable Organic Cotton Filling
✔️ Organic Cotton Labels with Non-Toxic Inks
✔️ Zero Polyester, Zero Plastic
These teddies are completely microplastic-free. From the thread to the stuffing, they’re safe to be snuggled, chewed, kissed and loved, without worry.
Available in three lovable styles
🦄 Unicorn: For dreamers and magic-lovers
🐘 Elephant: A calm, grounding friend with a big heart
🐒 Monkey: For cheeky adventurers and cuddle chasers
Each one is stitched with love and care, offering a more natural, breathable, and non-toxic alternative to the mainstream market.
Why Microplastic-Free Play Matters
The reality is: babies and toddlers are still developing, their organs, skin barrier, and immune systems are all more sensitive than ours. So, reducing their contact with synthetic, plastic-based materials (especially those that go near their mouth or skin) makes a huge difference.
Our Organic Cotton Teddies are a simple, feel-good swap for any parent looking to reduce toxins in their child’s environment.
The Perfect Low-Tox Gift
Whether you’re shopping for a newborn gift, baby shower, birthday, or Christmas stocking filler, these organic teddies are a thoughtful, safe and sustainable choice. They’re designed for families who care about what goes near their children and who want to invest in products that support better beginnings.
Because every cuddle should be safe. And every toy should protect, not pollute.
