After years of research, extensive testing and a worldwide design workshop, HaPe International is proud to offer the Bamboo Collection, the world's first collection of bamboo toys.

Why did it take years? The challenge with bamboo, a giant natural grass that grows as tall as a tree, is its sensitivity to sawing, cutting, filing, dyeing, temperature and bending. HaPe realized the extensive amount of research and testing required but persevered due to the sustainability of bamboo and its economical and ecological values to the world. Once cut, bamboo grows back completely in a mere three years. Bamboo also combines lightness with stability and is flexible but very strong.

Bamboo toys have names derived from Latin for use around the world. The bamboo grain has a wonderful tactile feel and is enhanced with a bright water-based paint.
