How we think about sustainability

Der Lernturm von ZAUNKÖNIG mit dem Logo der Green Product Selection 2020.

THOUGHTFULLY DESIGNED. BUILT TO LAST.

We design products that enrich our everyday lives and accompany us for many years. In doing so, we ensure that we use resources responsibly so that they are preserved for future generations. That is why we work with natural, certified materials, manufacture locally, and follow a clear, timeless design language. For us, true sustainability means, above all, long-term usability. We are pleased that the learning tower (3-in-1), as a sustainable piece of children's furniture, is part of the Green Product Selection (2020) .

How We Manufacture

MADE IN GERMANY

Our products are created in small, owner-managed family businesses in Germany, in the Ore Mountains and the Franconian Forest. The proximity to our manufacturers and our personal exchanges allow for sustainable production of consistently high quality. 

Our processes are transparent, and we can trust that our wood truly grows in forests in Thuringia. This allows us to stay very close—to the people, the materials, and the production—and to provide you with answers at any time.

GENUINE CRAFTSMANSHIP

For us, true craftsmanship means preserving knowledge and recognizing mastery. It means knowing the people personally and celebrating those who bring our ideas to life with their hands, day after day. True craftsmanship means a passion for high-quality design – down to the final touch.

True craftsmanship gives us human products – unique pieces, as singular and beautiful as the people who use them.

Materials we choose

Muster des Bio-Wollfilz in grau.

NATURAL MATERIALS

We rely on natural materials because we are convinced that children learn with all their senses. Because we love the superpowers of natural materials. Because we trust our children to treat good things with care. Because we believe that natural materials become more beautiful the longer you use them. Because natural materials carry memories, have a soul. 

And: because we believe in a healthy world and want to make our small contribution to it.
