Marmalade Lion

Marmalade Lion is an Australian family-run brand of sustainably-produced children’s products. Creating beautiful, practical items that you can invest in once and love forever, this is a business that values quality, durability and gorgeous design. After building the brand on home soil since 2017, Marmalade Lion has just launched in the UK.

The products are made using high-quality, non-toxic materials, with care taken over every detail in a range that includes play mats, pushchair liners, bibs, baby blankets, nesting dolls and more. Each item has a nostalgic childhood feel, and most feature their beautiful hand-illustrated prints, inspired by Australian flora, fauna and landscapes.

Marmalade Lion isn’t just about stunning design and durability, though. “Creating beautiful and practical products that serve a functional purpose has always been the heart and soul of Marmalade Lion”, explains founder and creative director, Alicia Jackson, “but that can’t be at the expense of our planet”.

With a brand ethos that cultivates conscious consumerism and appreciation for the world around us, sustainability and responsibility have been firmly at the heart of the brand’s decisions since day one.

Their choices speak for themselves. Environmentally-friendly materials, strategic alignment to a production chain that collaborates in ethical and responsible business practices, and OKEO-TEX certified production mills (meaning processes are environmentally and socially responsible, and products are tested for harmful substances)… this all adds up to a business that believes in action for the environment, rather than just words. Plus, from early 2020 Marmalade Lion are thrilled to be a plastic-free business!

With products which are designed to be used (and misused!) by several children, Marmalade Lion is on a mission to encourage families to invest in quality and durability rather than buying into the disposable culture. Explore the range at www.marmaladelion.co.uk.
