BEIBAMBOO: Super soft eco-friendly clothes for baby’s tender skin
In order not to irritate your baby’s sensitive skin, we have put a lot of thought into Beibamboo’s designs. Our essential clothing envelopes your tender little one in a super soft bamboo/organic cotton mix.
Baby friendly. World friendly. Eco-friendly. The founder and CEO of Beibamboo, Nina Ignatius, began her babywear revolution due to the premature birth of her own daughter in the summer of 2007. She set out to design a small, but beautiful, range of baby wear with only the most essential items addressing the everyday needs of prematurely born babies and healthy newborns to 2.5-year-olds.
“The idea of comfortable, no nonsense and also ‘Parent Friendly’ baby-wear, was born in a NICU/Neonatal ward, shortly after I gave birth to my own my preemie baby daughter.” Nina says.
I am proud that Beibamboo has won multiple design awards and has been received extremely well by NICU healthcare professionals. Today, Beibamboo offers smart, comfortable clothing for newborn up to 3 years old for both hospitalized babies and those that are healthy.”

We use only ÖkoTex 100- certified materials, which guarantees the absence of any toxins, pesticides and heavy-metals. Beibamboo clothing features a unique combination of 50 % bamboo, 50 % organic cotton. The bamboo viscose comes from regulated farms in China, and the organic cotton from suppliers in India.
Bamboo-fabric is an excellent choice for your baby because bamboo is as soft as silk, warm when it is cold, and cools you down when it is hot, because of the hollow structure of the fiber. .It is also very absorbent, thus feels dry on the skin.
Bamboo is an ecological choice for your baby’s world, because it grows without fertilizers or pesticides, and only requires minimal irrigation. It releases 35% more oxygen to the atmosphere than a tree. Commercially grown bamboo for fabric is not panda food, but a different species altogether.
As we do not want to unduly overload the already suffering water systems of the world with chemical dyes, we have chosen to only produce our garments in milky white. The dyes in the logo ribbon and our labels are ATSO free.
We strive to offer a timeless, season-less and gender neutral collection of baby essentials. Our designs have a long usage life, for instance the baby grow has a double row of poppers. We aim to minimize the number of seams and we place all our labels on the outside of the garment.
“I just fell in love with your line. Anyway, I bought a pair of trousers from you, and I wish I had known about this clothing sooner. I would have had my baby in it every day.”
– Amy, Helsinki
“These clothes work perfectly for our twin sons! They are easy to dress and they are really comfortable and soft. During the first months you need a lot of clothes and it would be silly to buy them in such quantities. In spite of the size difference of my sons the same size fit them both because the pant legs could be folded for one and the other could wear socks. Every little thing that makes life easier for a family of multiple babies is a big help ;)”
These features have been engineered to ensure only soft, skin-friendly material comes into contact with your baby’s delicate skin.
