Sustainability & Responsibility

our values

Human

Handmade = human-made. Investing in and nurturing human capital is integral to all sustainable growth. We empower artisans who are respected craftspeople in their field to continue creating in ways that are core to their culture. We utilise traditional hand block-printing techniques that, although much more arduous and expensive than modern digital printing, helps to maintain, grow and evolve a craft that is thousands of years old.

We all have the ability to shop wisely and mindfully. At Malabar Baby, as we innovate and create, we always keep in mind that our customers are modern families who share the same values as we do. Small steps towards being greener makes a big impact, collectively.
