As parents, we want to give our children the very best, from love and comfort to safety and care. And when it comes to everyday essentials like toys, bibs, and pacifiers, what they’re made from matters more than we might realise.
Babies explore the world with their mouths, and their skin is extra sensitive, which means the materials we place in their environment should be as gentle and non-toxic as possible. That’s why we love and support brands that prioritise safe, sustainable materials, and why we recommend Mushie and FRIGG.
Why Non-Toxic Matters
Many mass-produced baby products still use materials like PVC, BPA, or phthalates. While regulations are improving, not all baby items on the market are held to the same standards. Choosing non-toxic options gives you peace of mind, knowing your little one is surrounded by safer, more thoughtfully designed essentials.
Non-toxic baby products are often:
Made from food-grade silicone or FSC-certified wood.
Free from BPA, PVC, phthalates, and lead.
Dyed using non-toxic, water-based paints.
Designed to be durable and reusable (great for the planet too!).
When shopping for baby products
When selecting your products look out for;
Materials: Look for “food-grade silicone,” “FSC-certified wood,” or “organic cotton.”
Certifications: Brands that highlight third-party safety testing or sustainability certifications.
Design: Simple, well-made items that don’t overuse plastic or complex mechanical parts.
Our Go-To Non-Toxic Brands
We love Mushie and FRIGG for so many reasons—style, functionality, and above all, safety.
Mushie has built a global following thanks to its Scandinavian-inspired designs and commitment to sustainable materials. Their silicone bibs, stacking cups, and teething toys are made from BPA-free, food-grade silicone that’s both gentle and durable. Their wooden toys use FSC-certified wood and non-toxic paint, making them a timeless addition to any nursery.
Frigg pacifiers are another favourite. Every FRIGG pacifier is designed, produced, and tested in Denmark, meeting some of the highest safety standards in the world. Each pacifier undergoes a rigorous stretch and vacuum test to ensure durability, along with testing for harmful substances to comply with European safety regulations (EN1400). The result? A pacifier you can trust to be not only beautiful and functional, but also incredibly safe for your baby.
