Cardboard Baby Cribs

This Flatpack Baby Crib Saves Space and Could Help Save the Environment

— July 20, 2017 — Art & Design
Baby cribs often tend to be rather cumbersome and heavy, which is why Romania-based product designer Nicolae Baciu decided to switch things up by designing an innovative new flatpack baby crib that is not only safe and easy to use, but is also lightweight and saves space, all without compromising on strength and durability.

Introduced under the Foldo design umbrella, the Foldo Bebe cardboard baby cribs may be used for babies up to 6 months old. What's great about this crib is that it can be assembled in a matter of minutes without any fancy tools. What's more, the crib is completely ventilated as well as waterproofed, and durable enough to withstand the biggest babies around.

Add to this the fact that these cardboard baby cribs swing just as well as regular hard-structured ones, it becomes clear that the Foldo Bebe could be a godsend for everyone from regular urban parents to parents in difficult situations such as those in disaster zones or refugee camps who don't have space to work with.
Trend Themes
1. Flatpack Baby Cribs - Opportunity for the development of lightweight and space-saving baby cribs that are easy to assemble and durable.
2. Ventilated and Waterproofed Cribs - Potential for cribs with improved ventilation and waterproofing capabilities for added safety and convenience.
3. Cardboard Cribs for Emergency Situations - Innovative solution for providing safe and temporary sleeping spaces for babies in disaster zones and refugee camps.
Industry Implications
1. Baby Product Manufacturing - Opportunity for manufacturers to create innovative and sustainable baby cribs that cater to the needs of modern parents.
2. Interior Design - Potential for designers to create space-saving and customizable cribs that blend seamlessly with modern interior design.
3. Humanitarian Aid - Market for companies to develop lightweight and portable cribs specifically designed for emergency relief efforts and refugee camps.
