Easygrow - products that last year after year!

Easygrow has been developed over many years, alongside you parents. Thank you for all the feedback and ideas! This enables us to enjoy excellent products for all the little ones we love!

Easygrow aims to create quality products that are safe for our children and good for the environment. Therefore, we make choices during development that may not be the best economically, but they provide the products we desire for both our children and the environment we're growing up in. Thinking long-term might cost a little more in the present production, but over time - years and generations - we will all benefit from a more environmentally friendly approach. With new research and knowledge about what's eco-friendly, we can improve a little bit every day in this area.

We choose organic materials where possible and strive to find materials that are Oeko-Tex certified. All our foot muffs undergo extra testing at Oeko-Tex and have the license number Oeko-Tex Standard 100; 18.HCN.38944. This needs to be renewed every year.

Furthermore, the water-resistant foot muffs are treated with Bionic Finish ECO - an environmentally friendly impregnation. In the newer foot muff productions, we have opted to use recycled materials. Quality is a priority, and we are committed to making products that last a long time! An Easygrow foot muff is meant to be handed down through generations!

The story

The year is 2004, the place is Levanger. The sisters Maria and Elisabeth, both mothers themselves, are on the hunt for the best products for their babies, just like any new mothers. Searching for a suitable baby foot muff, they couldn’t find one that met their exact needs. This prompted them to start sewing their own.

They sewed numerous of foot muffs. Eventually, they created their ultimate baby foot muff. Its special feature was a practical extension part that allowed the bag to grow as the child grew.

They got it patented and the very first product of today’s Easygrow was born. They then drove to kids stores across Norway to present their product. With children in the backseat and foot muffs in the trunk. Two sisters, two mothers, two hardworking women with a dream to create something.

This ”something” has now become a workplace for several employees, a Norwegian supplier of children’s equipment, a local business (still located in Levanger), and still led by the same Maria.

And we still take new steps forward, each year. This includes our expanding range of products – both the well-known favorites and exciting newcomers. Additionally, we’re focusing on sustainability and the environment. With a desire to lead the way in making eco-conscious choices within our market. The story has only just begun for Easygrow.

Our production

Our production takes place in controlled environments at factories in Norway, China, and Estonia. The production sites are visited regularly to ensure the quality of the products, so that we can be as confident as possible that the factories adhere to our values of sustainable development. Our aim is for the Global Compact to serve as the foundation for the company's guiding principles. Learn more about the Global Compact guiding principles.

The down in our products comes from ducks that are used in the food production industry. The down is not plucked from live birds! We use only duck down/feathers in our foot muff. The down is also certified by CFDIA (China Down and Feather Industrial Association), which conducts regular unannounced inspections at the factories. We also do not use real fur or leather in our products, but rather synthetic alternatives. Many of our foot muff models also feature organic cotton against the child's skin, and in our latest spring and winter collections, we have transitioned to using recycled polyester. We strive to get a little better in this area every day!

We appreciate both criticism and praise! Please feel free to reach out if you have tips, ideas, or other feedback – this is how our new products are created and continuously improved each year. Thank you to all of you for the suggestions we've received, from mothers and fathers who see a need in their busy everyday lives!
