Ecological test "very good" for HOPPEDIZ® Baby Slings from Bergisch Gladbach

Bergisch Gladbach, 10th January 2005 - The HOPPEDIZ® Baby Sling company has received a rating of "very good" in the year-book young children 2005 from ÖKO-test, the German ecological test magazine, for its "Casablanca, long" baby sling. In the previous year, ÖKO-test rated the HOPPEDIZ® baby slings as "good" in the 02/2004 issue. In the same issue, the products made by the company from Bergisch Gladbach were rated as "very good" for material. "We have reacted to the test results and improved the weave type for our baby slings in order to meet the requirements for an overall rating of "very good", said Annette Schröder, founder of HOPPEDIZ® Baby Slings.

Annette Schröder has successfully combined the carrying experience made since 1999 as a mother and long years of experience in the textile industry, and was able to develop a high-quality product within a very short time. "It is very important for us that children can be carried as well as possible at a fair price" said Ingo Schröder, managing director of HOPPEDIZ®.
