We are Lindex
At Lindex, we believe it is important to let kids be kids, which is reflected in our design. For us, itÂŽs a mindset of always looking at the world with playful, curious, and creative eyes.
Our entire baby assortment is made from sustainable materials. The cotton is always organic and the cotton garments are always GOTS certified. The assortment is designed to use and reuse for a long time.
Extending the lifetime of garments is part of our sustainability promise. Our baby assortment has been carefully developed so that the products can be used for as long as possible and then be passed on to younger siblings or a new baby. These high-quality products have a seasonless design and have useful functions such as an extra row of buttons and foldable cuffs, which enables the garment to grow one size.
We want our customers to be sure that all materials are sustainable. That means that all accessories, such as hats, mittens and sunglasses, are also made from organic or recycled materials.
We are Lindex – making a difference for future generations

INUR – the new natural day and night skincare programme – created by French skincare experts and nutritionists, and formulated in Korea
INUR is the first beauty brand to launch a full holistic programme of nutrition, exercise and lifestyle coaching for body, mind and skin.
Alongside the programme is a NEW natural day and night skincare range created by nutritionists and French skincare experts, which is formulated in Korea using the highest quality natural active ingredients.
INUR was founded by ex-CEO of premium French beauty brand BY TERRY, Marion Assuied, and nutritionist Valérie Espinasse.
The brand is a pioneer in the global wellness system for skincare and uses only natural and clean skin-nourishing ingredients, such as aloe vera, matcha (from Jeju Island – an UNESCO world heritage site to ensure premium quality), and pre and probiotics, which are all rigorously tested and clinically proven to actively work with the skinâs own natural system.
We like the Renew Sleeping Mask, a powerful overnight mask which restores, revives and refreshes skin whilst the body rests. It combines Aloe Vera, Matcha, Pre and Probiotics, and AHA to give a radiance-boosting bouncy glow to the skin when you wake up in the morning.
One application at night, three times a week of Renew Sleeping Mask will bring a blend of active ingredients at a 47% concentration. In tests, 94% said their skin was more hydrated and nourished, and 92% said their skin looked smoother.

Love the Planet You Play On â Sustainable Summer Styles from Frugi
Sustainable childrenâs clothing brand Frugi is recognisable by its bright prints and clever details, such as interactive appliques, reversible styles, and extendable cuffs and sleeves, that allow for the clothes to grow with the child making them both practical and fun to wear. Frugiâs gorgeous maternity range Frugi Bloom takes you from bump to breastfeeding and beyond.
Frugi uses 100% GOTS certified organic cotton for 90% of its clothing. Organic cotton is not only better for the environment by using less water, but it feels softer and is more durable because the fibres are left intact and not broken down by the harsh chemicals used in the processing of conventional cotton.
Encouraging customers to buy less, buy better, the remaining 10% of products are made from old polyethylene (PET) plastic bottles that have been spun into yarn to make a durable, waterproof fabric for outerwear, accessories, and swimwear. Frugi is in partnership with theLittleLoop, the UKâs first rental market for childrenâs clothing and each year Frugi donates 1% of annual proceeds to charity and since launching 18 years ago has so far donated a whopping ÂŁ1 million to various causes.
