Thoughtful materials
Every ingredient and component is checked for safety before it goes into a kit. Non-toxic first, always - these boxes end up on kitchen tables and in children's hands.
78 of our 147 kits have a refill, so the box you buy once keeps working. Here's what we do, plainly - and what we haven't cracked yet.
Real figures from our catalogue, not projections.
Applied to every kit before it goes on sale.
Every ingredient and component is checked for safety before it goes into a kit. Non-toxic first, always - these boxes end up on kitchen tables and in children's hands.
Right-sized boxes, recycled filler where we can get it, and no decorative packaging that goes straight into the bin. If a layer isn't protecting something, it comes out.
78 of our 147 kits have a refill. Buy the tools once, top up the consumables - it costs you less and it means one box, not five.
Same fun, a fraction of the packaging, and cheaper than starting over. It's the single most useful thing you can do here.
Shop refills
We'd rather tell you this than put a green leaf on the box and hope you don't ask.
We haven't measured our footprint end to end, so we don't claim a number we can't show you.
78 of 147 do. The rest are on the list, and refills ship with new kits wherever the format allows one.
Food-safe and moisture-sensitive parts are the hard cases. We swap them out as we find alternatives that actually work.
Every kit we launch gets reviewed against the three rules above before it goes on sale, and every kit already on sale gets looked at again each year. When we find a better material, a smaller box or a refill that works, we change it - and we'll say so here rather than quietly.
