Modular stroller designs

Having revolutionised stroller design, Bugaboo’s award-winning pushchairs boast ultimate comfort and convenience without compromising on safety or style. The lightweight strollers’ modular design allows for easy usage, repairs and adaptability, enabling effortless changes between a bassinet or a seat according to your child’s age, lending versatility to the product until your little one is ready to explore the world on their own feet. Moreover, the compact one-hand folding mechanism – activated with a touch of a button – and built-in carry strap make storage and transportation a breeze, whether you’re travelling by car, plane, or train. Bugaboo also offers a range of accessories and parts to ensure you get the most out of your product as your needs change.

The right to repair

While all Bugaboo products are crafted to withstand various environments, from urban settings to natural surroundings, if your piece does get damaged, don’t worry. Bugaboo’s warranty provides the right to repair unless Bugaboo determines that replacing or returning the product is necessary. The warranty includes features such as repairing sets that can be easily used by the consumer or the retailer and replacement parts. Additionally, Bugaboo will cover shipping costs to and from the store where you purchased the product if the repair falls under the warranty. The right to repair is crucial for maximising the product’s lifespan, with Bugaboo considering its impact on future generations.

B Corp certification

In 2023, Bugaboo added another notch to its belt as the brand became a Certified B Corporation™. This achievement means that Bugaboo has met the rigorous social and environmental performance standards, accountability, and transparency set by the nonprofit organisation B Lab. Being a B Corp means that in all of its operations, from looking after its employees and launching circular services to harnessing sustainable materials, Bugaboo bears in mind the health of our planet and society, making responsible choices every step of the way.

One such example of Bugaboo’s commitment to creating a better future is its ‘Push to Zero’ journey, which aims for the company to reach net zero CO2 by 2035. Taking strides in the right direction, Bugaboo is already crafting its strollers from mass-balanced, bio-based material, with more innovations to come as the brand carries on its ever-evolving sustainability endeavours.
