Environmentally Responsible

Kids in a field

P’kolino was started by two dads with a passion for fatherhood. Being in love with their children and their roles as dads, these two innovators set out to make a difference and improve the play at home experience. And so... P’kolino was born.

As the company and their children grew, so did a new passion... preserving what we have for the families of generations to come.

So that is why, here at P’kolino, we have improved our process to be more eco-friendly and environmentally responsible. From changing our manufacturing location to improving how our resources are harvested, our goal is unchanging: Let us better preserve what we have been given so we can help ensure that the families of tomorrow will enjoy the same planet as the families of today!

Low Carbon Logo
Together We Can Make Every Product Carbon Neutral

Our products ship in one box, unlike many other products out there that come in several boxes. One box shipments are more eco friendly as they lower the carbon footprint and reduce packaging materials. We also offer our customers an opportunity to make their purchase carbon neutral! We have synced with Cloverly, the world's first API for carbon offsets, to matches carbon emissions to equivalent carbon credits in real-time to mitigate the environmental impacts of everyday activities. Together we can make this happen!

ONE BOX SHIPMENTS AND REDUCED PACKAGING MATERIALS = LOWER CARBON FOOTPRINT

RENEWABLE WOOD Logo
Renewably Sourced Pine Wood for a Happy Planet

At P’kolino, we try our best to use only pine wood in our furniture. Pine wood is the most eco-friendly and sustainable wood found on the planet. Thanks to its ability to capture carbon during its fast growth and its carbon storage in long-lasting pine furniture. Pine wood is also largely distributed in the Americas and Europe so transportation of the wood has a relatively lower carbon footprint than more exotic, imported woods. Our pine wood is only purchased from sustainably managed forests which means the trees are not cut down until they are mature. This allows for quick regrowth, replacement of any lost canopy and the absorption of carbon from the atmosphere which helps reduce the effects of climate change. When pine wood is made into furniture, it has a relatively low carbon footprint because wood waste can be recycled fully as by-products or biomass pellets to offset the carbon emissions during harvesting and processing. Our FSC certification assures that our pine wood is guaranteed to be sustainable which helps to prevent illegal or unsustainable logging practices that harm forest bio-systems and accelerate climate change.

CARBON CAPTURING • QUICK REGROWTH • LONG LASTING

Eco Friendly LogoSafe, Durable and Smartly Designed at price points families can afford and enjoy!

Eco-friendly doesn’t always mean budget friendly. However, at P’kolino we have made changing that idea a priority. We set out with a desire to make eco-friendly products at price points families can afford. And after 18 years in the business that is exactly what we have done. Our children’s bedroom furniture is not only made from sustainable, renewably sourced pine wood but is also smartly engineered to ship in one box to lower our carbon footprint. Our furniture is also priced lower than the average eco-friendly option. Through careful design, thoughtful engineering and artistic craftsmanship, we are able to offer our customers beautifully designed furniture that is modern, durable, eco friendly and kid safe! Shop with confidence knowing our products meet or exceed US, EU, and Canadian safety standards and are independently tested for durability, toxicity, mechanical safety, regulatory standards, use and abuse and age grading.

MODERN DESIGN • BUILT TO LAST • ECO FRIENDLY • EXCEEDS SAFETY STANDARDS

Montessori Logo
Give Children Safety and Freedom with a Montessori Bed

Our Montessori inspired beds are designed with a key principal in mind: to give children freedom when it comes to their movements and environment. Developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, the Montessori Method is the belief that children should grow and learn in a self-directed manner so they develop an excellent foundation in creativity learning and booster their self esteem. Our beds are specially crafted with a low-to-the-floor design which empowers children to get in and out of bed all on their own. With the mattress laying directly on the floor children develop confidence and independence when it comes to their surroundings. Parents can rest comfortably knowing their child is safe and can not fall out of their bed.

BUILD SELF ESTEEM AND ENCOURAGE INDEPENDENCE IN YOUR CHILD
