All Charlie Bears are limited in production, and our special collections often have very low editions. Lovingly made by hand, each bear has their own unique characteristics and that is why only Charlie Bears are known as the bears with personalities.

At Charlie Bears, we believe all bears should be made with care, craftsmanship, and a commitment to responsible practices. From the materials we use to the partners we work with, we aim to ensure our products are created with care, respect and transparency.

We work closely with trusted suppliers and manufacturing partners around the world who share our commitment to responsible business practices. Our approach focuses on ethical sourcing, fair working conditions and product safety.

Our goal is simple: to create bears that collectors can treasure, knowing they have been produced responsibly.

Some of our collectable bears are made using mohair, a natural fibre produced from the Angora goat. Mohair has been used in traditional teddy bear making for more than a century and is valued for its durability, softness and distinctive appearance.

At Charlie Bears we recognise that natural fibres should be sourced responsibly. For this reason, the mohair fabrics used in our bears are sourced through suppliers aligned with the Responsible Mohair Standard (RMS).

The Responsible Mohair Standard is an internationally recognised standard developed by Textile Exchange that promotes responsible and transparent mohair production.

The standard focuses on:

• Responsible animal welfare practices
• Sustainable land management
• Environmental protection
• Supply-chain traceability
• Fair working conditions for those involved in production

This means that the Angora goats providing the fibre are raised with appropriate care and welfare standards, including suitable living conditions, proper nutrition and veterinary attention.

By working with suppliers aligned with the Responsible Mohair Standard, we aim to ensure that the materials used in our bears are sourced responsibly and transparently.

Charlie Bears works closely with its manufacturing partners and regularly conducts independent social audits of our production sites.

These audits help ensure that our suppliers operate in line with recognised ethical standards and allow us to ensure needed improvements are identified and corrective action plans are implemented to ensure standards continue to improve.

Areas reviewed include:

• Labour standards
• Health and safety practices
• Responsible recruitment
• Fair wages and working hours
• Non-discrimination policies
• Responsible use of subcontracting

Child labour, forced labour, and unsafe working conditions have no place in our world and will never be tolerated anywhere within our supply chain.

Product safety is extremely important to us. All Charlie Bears products undergo extensive safety testing to ensure they meet or exceed the regulatory requirements of the markets in which they are sold.

Our collections include both collectable bears intended for adult collectors and products that are suitable from birth, each tested to the appropriate safety standards.

Quality, safety and craftsmanship remain central to every bear we create.

Our bears are created to bring joy to collectors around the world. By working responsibly with our suppliers, partners and employees, we aim to ensure that this joy is supported by ethical and sustainable practices.

Transparency and continuous improvement remain important to us, and we will continue to review and strengthen our standards as our business grows.
