Not only does this keep your child safe, but it also benefits our environment.
ORGANIC, NATURAL FIBRES
All ergoPouch sleepwear is made from natural fibres; Certified Organic Cotton and Bamboo.
Natural fibres are safer for your child and better for their skin.
- Allows skin to breath
- Regulates body temperature
- Reduces chances of overheating
- Reduces eczema flare ups
- No toxic chemicals against your child’s skin
Our fabrics are GOTS Certified annually at our factory, by Peterson Control Union.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY AND NON-TOXIC
Better for the environment
Organic cotton is grown in a way that uses natural methods to minimise the impact on our environment, using less water, reducing toxic emissions and replenishes soil fertility. Our Organic Cotton is free from pesticides and is not genetically modified like conventional cotton.
Chemical-free materials
Our fibres are dyed using a water-based ink, meaning they’re non-toxic for your child and their skin, and better for our waterways and the environment.
Our fabrics are chemically tested and certified annually to show they are free from lead, free from phthalates and free from formaldehyde, by Hangzhou C&K Testing Technic Co. Ltd. Chemical-Free Dyes and Fabric
SAFETY APPROVED, MADE TO LAST
All our products are made with the highest quality materials, and are double-stitched for long-lasting durability.
Our jersey fabrics are made with a little bit of elastane (5%), to be comfortable, help the organic fibres retain their shape in the wash, and extend the life of the product.
The high quality of our materials and manufacturing process means an ergoPouch will last several years, and multiple children. Meaning less consumption over a longer period.
Our products meet all safety standards for Australia, for sleepwear. Made to last
RESPONSIBLE MANUFACTURING
All of our sleepwear products are designed right here in Melbourne, Australia, and ethically manufactured in China. Our factory in China has certified ISO9001 Quality Management compliance.

- Provides a fair wage to all workers
