Editor’s letter W

elcome to our latest Wheeled Goods Supplement, where we shine the spotlight on one of the most exciting, innovative and fast-moving categories within the nursery industry.

Few product sectors evolve quite as rapidly as wheeled goods.

From pushchairs and strollers to travel systems and compact travel solutions, manufacturers continue to push the boundaries of design, functionality and convenience. As parents’ lifestyles change, so too do their expectations, creating a constant demand for products that

are smarter, lighter, more versatile and easier to use than ever before.

One of the biggest developments in recent years has been the continued rise of the compact fold.

Parents are increasingly seeking products that fit seamlessly into busy lives, whether navigating public transport, storing a stroller in a small apartment or preparing for family holidays. This demand has fuelled the popularity of cabin friendly travel products, allowing families to move through airports and beyond with greater ease and confidence.

Innovation certainly has not stopped there. More recently, we have seen the introduction of folding carry cots that can remain attached to the chassis, offering an even more convenient solution for parents who want to maximise practicality without compromising on comfort for their little one. It is developments such as these that demonstrate just how responsive this category has become to the needs of modern families.

Within these pages, we take a closer look at the trends, challenges and opportunities shaping today’s wheeled goods market.

We gain valuable insight from Damon Marriott, Head of Product Management at Joie, who discusses the growing demand for compact convenience, the importance of balancing style with functionality and how ongoing innovation continues to influence the future direction of pushchairs and strollers.

We also speak with independent retailer Chelsea Baby, where Director Raj Sanghera offers a unique

perspective from the shop floor.

With a front row seat to the rapidly evolving wheeled goods market, Raj shares his thoughts on everything from compact travel solutions and folding carry cots to the growing influence of social media and changing consumer expectations.

He also highlights why the in-store experience remains such an important part of the purchasing journey, despite the increasing role of digital channels in product discovery and research.

You will find a host of leading brands featured throughout the supplement, each showcasing exciting new products, fresh thinking and innovative solutions designed to meet the needs of today’s parents. From practical everyday essentials to premium lifestyle products, there is plenty to discover and plenty of inspiration.

Elsewhere in the supplement, we are delighted to feature an article from Scott Blease, Founder of Plan A Product Development. In The Power of Design: How Innovation is Driving the Future of Wheeled Goods, Scott explores how thoughtful product development and creative engineering are helping to shape the next generation of wheeled goods solutions.

For retailers, the importance of this category cannot be overstated.

Wheeled goods continue to be a major purchase decision for parents and remain a key driver of footfall, online engagement and sales. They also provide fantastic opportunities for creating compelling social media content, with new launches, innovative features and real-life demonstrations generating strong consumer interest and interaction.

Whether in store, online or across social platforms, wheeled goods remain one of the most influential and engaging categories within the nursery sector.

We hope you enjoy the supplement and find plenty of ideas, inspiration and insight across the following pages.

Cover Story Hauck

Ready For

hauck’s Fly N Care is a compact all-in-one travel buggy designed to make every family journey feel lighter, easier and more comfortable from day one.

Family travel is full of little moments that matter: the first flight with a baby, a weekend away, a train journey to see grandparents, a busy school run with a toddler in tow, or a city break where every hand and every centimetre of space counts. For modern parents, a stroller needs to do more than simply get from A to B. It needs to fold quickly, carry easily, keep children comfortable and make life feel that little bit simpler. hauck’s Fly N Care has been created for exactly these moments. As part of hauck’s new stroller generation, it brings together compact travel convenience, thoughtful comfort and everyday practicality in one all-in-one buggy. Designed for families who love to move, Fly N Care is ready for airports, train platforms, car boots, pavements and spontaneous days out.

Compactness is at the heart of the product story. Fly N Care folds down to 55 x 45 x 24.5cm and is described as IATA-compatible, making it a natural companion for families planning flights, holidays and short breaks, as well as those who simply want a buggy that stores neatly at home or in the car.

One of Fly N Care’s biggest strengths is that it comes as a complete travel-ready package. The set includes the buggy, seat liner, carry strap, transport bag and

infant car seat adapters, meaning the key travel essentials are already included.

For parents, this removes complexity and adds reassurance: everything needed for the next journey is ready from the start.

The one-hand Auto-Fold function has been designed around real family life.

When parents are holding a baby, guiding a toddler or managing bags, Fly N Care can be folded quickly and easily. Once folded, it can be carried comfortably over the shoulder using the padded carry strap or placed in the included transport bag, helping families move smoothly through busy spaces.

Comfort has been carefully considered too. Fly N Care is suitable from birth up to 22kg, offering a flexible solution from the earliest days through to toddlerhood. The softly padded seat, additional seat liner and adjustable five-point harness help little passengers feel secure and supported, while the one-hand adjustable backrest can be moved into a lie-flat position for naps on the go.

Everyday details make the difference. A swivel and removable bumper bar makes getting in and out easier, while the four-wheel suspension and puncture-proof EVA wheels help create a smoother ride across different surfaces. Whether families are rolling through an airport, crossing city streets or enjoying a day out, Fly N Care is designed to keep moving with them.

Take-Off For warmer days and longer adventures, the extendable XL canopy with UPF 50+ protection offers shade and comfort. Large mesh inserts in the canopy and backrest support airflow, helping children stay comfortable when travelling or exploring outdoors. A spacious basket provides room for everyday essentials, from snacks and toys to blankets and changing items, while washable fabrics help keep the buggy fresh for the next outing.

Fly N Care also gives families extra flexibility as a travel-system option.

With the included adapters, it can be used with common infant car seats, making transitions between car, stroller and travel situations easier. This strengthens Fly N Care’s role as more than a compact holiday buggy: it is a complete mobility solution for families from day one.

The design language adds to the sense of ease and confidence. With its modern silhouette, leather-look handle and bumper bar, and two stylish colour options - Sage Green and Black - Fly N Care combines practicality with a premium feel. It is compact and functional, but still looks considered; a buggy parents can feel good about using every day.

Fly N Care sits within hauck’s new stroller generation, a collection shaped around the way families live, travel and move today. For parents who want an even lighter option, Lite N Care brings a powerful innovation story to the range. With its carbon frame and ultra-light weight of just 5.5kg, Lite N Care is made for maximum lightness without losing comfort, stability or style. It is suitable from birth up to 22kg and includes one-hand folding, a carry strap, UV 50+ protection, XL ventilation and elegant design details.

Lite N Care’s appeal is further underlined by its awards, including German Design Award 2026 Winner and Loved By Parents Platinum Winner. These recognitions support what parents can immediately feel when they lift it: a stroller designed to make everyday movement lighter.

For families looking for smart folding and practical everyday flexibility, Fold N Care adds another now available choice within the same stroller generation.

Together, Fly N Care, Lite N Care and Fold N Care give parents different ways to find the right fit for their lifestyle, whether they prioritise an all-in-one travel package, ultra-light carbon innovation or compact everyday handling.

Focus Cybex

Compact Style For Every Journey From cabin-approved travel companions to everyday UK essentials, CYBEX’s compact pushchair range supports modern families through every journey, at home or abroad, without compromising on style or functionality.

CYBEX Beezy

As families look ahead to the busy summer travel season, the demand for compact, versatile pushchairs continues to grow. Whether jetting off abroad or planning a UK staycation, parents want solutions that offer both convenience and comfort, without compromising on design. CYBEX meets this need with a thoughtfully engineered range of compact pushchairs, including the Orfeo, Libelle and Beezy. Each designed to support different travel moments while maintaining the brand’s signature aesthetic and performance.

For families travelling on an aeroplane, hand luggage compatibility has become an increasingly important consideration. Both the CYBEX Orfeo and Libelle are designed with this in mind, offering ultra-compact folds that meet cabin size requirements on many airlines. Lightweight and easy to carry, they are ideal for navigating busy airports, boarding flights with ease and simplifying the overall travel experience. Despite their compact size, both models deliver on comfort and practicality, ensuring children remain supported throughout the journey while parents benefit from effortless handling.

The Orfeo combines compact functionality with enhanced comfort features. The Orfeo is also suitable from birth.

Meanwhile, the Libelle stands out as one of the lightest options in its category, offering an ultra-compact fold that is perfect for families prioritising portability without sacrificing quality.

Closer to home, the CYBEX Beezy offers a versatile solution for UK-based travel, from countryside escapes to city breaks.

Designed with everyday usability in mind, it provides a smooth, comfortable ride across a variety of terrains, making it ideal for staycations or even everyday use!

This season, all three models are available in brand-new colourways, chocolate brown and cinnamon yellow, offering a sophisticated update that appeals to style-conscious parents.

Instead, they have become essential, go-to solutions that support families across a wide variety of journeys. With the Orfeo, Libelle and Beezy in particular, CYBEX demonstrates how thoughtful design and innovation can elevate everyday travel, providing parents with trusted companions wherever their plans may take them.

Innovation Meets Everyday Style

Wheeled Goods Joie

As one of the most recognised names in wheeled goods, Joie continues to evolve alongside the changing needs of modern families. In this interview, Damon Marriott, Head of Product Management at Joie, discusses the growing demand for compact convenience, the importance of style and functionality, and how innovation continues to shape the future of pushchairs and strollers.

Joie has built a strong reputation within wheeled goods over the years, but from your perspective, what are parents really prioritising when choosing a pushchair or stroller in today’s market?

Some of the core priorities we see from parents are size and method of fold, weight and general ease of use. These are not necessarily flashy features, but finding the right balance between the core aspects of a stroller and the more “nice to have” features is key.

Compact folds and cabin-friendly options appear to be dominating conversations within wheeled goods. How much has consumer demand shifted towards convenience-led products, and how is Joie responding to this trend?

Cabin approved capability was a natural next step for compact folds, and customer requests have definitely become more prevalent in the last couple of years. Convenience for the parent is something we have traditionally leaned heavily into and is, of course, a big selling point. We will be releasing our cabin approved option very soon.

If you had to pinpoint one area of wheeled goods that feels particularly strong or dominant right now, what would it be and why do you think it is resonating so well with families?

Lately, it seems as though many brands have upped their game when it comes to the aesthetics of soft goods and hard goods, with all aspects of products working seamlessly together. The look and feel of products will always resonate strongly with parents when we are talking about wheeled goods, as strollers in particular are like an extension of themselves and a reflection of their personal style.

Innovation within wheeled goods never seems to slow down. From materials and folding mechanisms to multi-functional designs, where do you feel the biggest product developments are happening at the moment?

Quality and ease of fold is a highlight for me. There are now many mechanisms available that allow simple one hand folds, with the aim always being to make life simpler for parents. Fold and unfold is an incredibly important aspect of a stroller in a parent’s day to day life, so it is no surprise that it remains high on the priority list.

Parents today are incredibly style conscious but also want practicality and value. How important is it for brands to strike that balance between aesthetics, functionality and affordability?

It is always a balancing act, but we tend to have an offering at many price points within the market so we can provide

great products and value no matter what people’s budgets are.

Retailers are constantly looking for categories that keep shoppers engaged. What benefits can retailers gain from investing in a strong wheeled goods offering, and how important is in store demonstration when selling these products?

In my opinion, wheeled goods is one of, if not the most important category to have showcased in store. Many parents want to try before they buy, as there are so many aspects to wheeled goods that must be weighed up and you cannot truly get a full picture when looking online. There is also the financial outlay to consider, as this can be significant for strollers and bundles.

Social media now plays such a huge role in shaping buying decisions for parents. How have platforms like Instagram, TikTok and influencer content changed the way consumers discover and engage with wheeled goods brands?

Social media offers a really good way for consumers to do their research before committing to a purchase. Social content can help inform users on a deeper level than websites and traditional media by showing real usage of the product and allowing consumers to hear genuine opinions from other users. This provides a research path that

can lead consumers to make an informed decision before going on to purchase either in store or online.

Looking ahead, what trends or developments do you think will continue to shape the wheeled goods category over the next few years, and where do you see the biggest opportunities for growth and innovation?

It is always tough to tell, but one area we have been working on is enhanced manoeuvrability, which is, of course, a core aspect of any stroller that will hopefully make parents’ lives easier when out and about. We will continue to invest in improved functionality and ease of use, as we believe ensuring our products are simple to use but effective is key for parents. www.joiebaby.com

Engineered with first time parents in mind, valora blends intelligent design and lightweight performance with Joie Signature’s sleek sophistication.

Lightweight and ready to go, valora weighs just 8.8 kg making it simple to lift, yet sturdy enough to transport a child and all of their essentials.

Valora gives four strollers in one when combined with an infant car seat and carry cot – all on a compact frame. Sold separately, valora will team with i-Level Pro, sprint, and calmi R129 as well as i-Snug 2 and i-Jemini.

For those early newborn strolls, pair with ramble xl for a safe and ergonomic snooze.

When they are ready to sit up and take in their surroundings, you can easily transition the seat unit from parent to world facing allowing them to see everything that’s going on around them.

When it’s time for nap, the seat easily reclines to a lie-flat position for safer spines and easy breathing on the go.

Valora has been precision engineered for smooth strolls with all-wheel suspension and light but durable EVA tyres that glide easily over any bump, cobblestone or tough terrain.

The height adjustable push bar makes valora comfortable to use for parents of all heights. The full size UPF50+ and water-resistant canopy will keep little one sheltered from the elements, while the large storage basket and convenient storage pocket on the back of the seat give parents handy places to store all of their essentials.

When it’s time to pack up and go, valora is easy to fold even when hands are full. No matter which way the seat faces, you can fold valora with just one hand into a compact close that stands neatly on its own making it simple to stow away – and being lightweight, it’s easy to pick up and go. uksales@joiebaby.com www.joiebaby.com

With Innovation As Director of Chelsea Baby, Raj Sanghera has a front row view of the rapidly evolving wheeled goods market. From compact travel solutions and folding carry cots to the growing influence of social media and changing consumer expectations, he shares how today’s parents are shopping, what innovations are making the biggest impact, and why in-store experiences continue to play such an important role in the buying journey.

Brands have have done their research, usually via social media or online reviews, and really pushed innovation want to do a test run with the product before buying. in the compact and Are customers typically visiting stroller market, giving Chelsea Baby with a specific stroller or travel system already in consumers so much mind, or are they still open to discovering new products and more choice than there receiving expert advice in store? was before.

Again, we have a mix of customers.

From Chelsea Baby’s perspective, how informed are today’s parents when it comes to wheeled goods, and have you seen customer knowledge evolve alongside the growth of online reviews, social media and influencer content?

Some will walk in knowing exactly what they want, however others want to be shown all the options they have. We have some customers who think they want a certain pram and, once they have had a look at the range, they change their minds.

How important are in-store demonstrations when helping parents choose wheeled goods, and which features tend to create the biggest impact during those hands on experiences?

The hands-on demonstrations are the main advantage of a bricks and mortar store over the convenience of online shopping. For most parents to be, as well as those expecting baby two, three or four, touching, feeling and really testing out the prams gives them confidence that the decision they are making is the right one.

Have you seen growing demand for cabin friendly strollers and ultra compact travel solutions as more families look for products that suit holidays, flights and everyday convenience?

Compact seems to be the flavour of the month, or even the year, with a huge variety of folding carry cots on prams from brands such as Silver Cross, Venicci and Cybex. Brands have really pushed innovation in the compact and stroller market, giving consumers so much more choice than there was before.

Our customers are certainly considering the need for cabin and travel friendly strollers during their initial purchases and we have reacted by creating bundles that include some travel strollers with the main pram purchase. For example, when buying your Cybex Priam style bundle, we offer a deal with a matching Cybex Coya to give a full package.

We’re also seeing innovation around travel cots that can fold while still attached to the chassis. How much interest are you seeing in multifunctional products like these, and do you think parents are increasingly prioritising versatility when investing in wheeled goods?

At Chelsea Baby, we think the folding cot will be similar to 360 rotation on car seats, initially seen as a nice feature to have, but eventually becoming the standard for all prams in the market.

Are parents currently placing greater emphasis on portability features like lightweight frames and one hand folds, or is there still strong demand for larger, more feature rich travel systems?

For our customers it is a mix of the two, as some are after a compact folding unit to fit in with their lives.

However, we also have many who want a bigger, more robust feeling travel system and do not mind the extra space or weight.

Which wheeled goods categories are currently performing strongest for Chelsea Baby, for example compact strollers, travel systems, double buggies, all terrain models or newer hybrid solutions?

Travel systems and compact strollers are definitely our top sellers, but we are seeing more people come in for double buggies.

Are you seeing meaningful innovation across the wheeled goods category at the moment, and are there any new developments or product features that are particularly resonating with your customers?

The biggest recent innovation is definitely the folding carry cot, which is appearing across multiple brands.

We are also seeing the use of smarter fabrics that are more weather and

wind resistant, alongside electronics designed to support the movement of prams.

Do you feel recent product launches are successfully meeting parents’ expectations when it comes to functionality, convenience and design, or are there still opportunities within the market?

There has been a wave of newness in the market over the past six months across multiple brands, which gives parents real options in terms of design, aesthetics and practicality.

At Chelsea Baby, we think the folding cot will be similar to 360 rotation on car seats, initially seen as a nice feature to have, but eventually becoming the standard for all prams in the market.

How brand driven are Chelsea Baby customers when shopping for wheeled goods? Are heritage brands continuing to lead the category, or are newer and more niche brands beginning to gain momentum?

I think it is fair to say heritage brands are certainly holding their own. We have seen the continued success of Silver Cross with the Silver Cross Cove and Silver Cross Reef over the past year or so. However, newer brands are innovating and pushing boundaries to gain position.

Have you noticed any emerging trends around colourways,

fabrics or styling within wheeled goods, and how influential are aesthetics in the final purchasing decision?

The two trends we are seeing are, firstly, the rise of chocolate brown, which seems to be the colourway of the moment. The second is the growing importance of rain covers and UV protection to help deal with the typical British weather.

How does the Chelsea Baby team stay up to date with evolving trends, product innovation and changing consumer behaviour within the wheeled goods category?

We have a great relationship with our brands and our account managers visit frequently to ensure our team is up to date with all the latest developments.

How do you operate to align product selection with the trends and conversations happening across platforms like Instagram, TikTok and YouTube?

We try to stay informed of trends across social media, while also working closely with our brands to ensure we have the latest information about what they are planning for the future.

Finally, do you feel supported by the brands that you stock or is there anything further they could do to offer you assistance?

Big City Adventures Just Got a Whole Lot Smaller

Say hello to Woosh City, the brand-new luxury modular stroller from Cosatto, designed to help families conquer city life in style. Compact enough for tiny boots, clever enough for busy streets and comfortable enough for little explorers from birth right up to 25kg, Woosh City is here to make every journey smoother, smarter and more colourful.

Whether weaving through bustling high streets, hopping on trains, jetting off on family adventures or squeezing everything into a compact city car, Woosh City is built to go wherever life takes you.

Small Fold. Big Personality

We know city parents need products that work hard.

That’s why Woosh City folds down with a simple one-hand click-and-drop action into an ultra-compact package. It’s lightweight at just 8.65kg, freestanding when folded and comes complete with a handy carry handle for life on the move.

In fact, it’s so compact it’s IATA compliant for air travel, making airport dashes and holiday adventures easier than ever. Tiny boot? No problem. Woosh City has got that covered too.

From Newborn Naps to Toddler Treks

Suitable from birth through to 25kg, Woosh City is designed to grow alongside your child. The spacious seat features an extended backrest and leg rest, multi-position recline and adjustable calf support, creating a comfy ride for everything from newborn snoozes to toddler sightseeing missions.

For parents wanting extra flexibility, Woosh City is compatible with the Cosatto Acorn Recline i-Size 0+ car seat, transforming into a travel system with both parent-facing car seat and forward-facing seat unit options available.

Comfort for Every Season

British weather likes to keep us guessing, so Woosh City is ready for whatever the skies have planned.

A generous UPF100+ hood helps shield little passengers from the sun, while the double-length sun visor, airflow panels and 360-degree ventilation help keep things cool

when temperatures rise. When the rain inevitably arrives, the included raincover has you covered.

A reversible padded liner adds an extra layer of comfort, while the viewing window allows parents to keep an eye on their precious cargo throughout the journey.

Premium Details that Work Harder

Woosh City combines practical features with premium styling throughout.

Parents will love the spacious 28-litre basket capable of carrying up to 8kg of essentials, complete with a dedicated raincover pocket. Handy extras come as standard too, including a cup holder, phone holder, swivel bumper bar, mosquito net and magnetic buckle harness designed to make getting in and out quick and fuss-free.

Front and rear suspension, puncture-proof wheels and reflective wheel rims help deliver a smooth, safe ride from daytime strolls to evening adventures.

And because sticky fingers happen, the easy-clean padded liner and quick-release wheels make tidying up refreshingly simple.

Good Looking.Good Thinking

Woosh City doesn’t just look good. It’s kinder to the planet too.

Each stroller is crafted using eco-conscious fabrics made from approximately 31 recycled plastic bottles, helping families make a more sustainable choice without compromising on quality, comfort or style.

Luxury detailing, colour-coordinated wheels and a branded leatherette bumper bar complete the premium look, proving practical can still be seriously stylish.

A Design for Every Personality

Woosh City launches in four standout designs: • Silhouette – sophisticated and effortlessly chic.

• Tiger Tale – bold, playful and full of character.

• Camille – elegant with timeless appeal.

• Meadow – inspired by nature’s beauty.

Pricing and Availability

Woosh City stroller is available with an RRP of £299.95.

Families looking for a complete travel solution can choose the Woosh City Car Seat Bundle for £499.95, which includes the Acorn Recline i-Size 0+ car seat and travel system conversion pack.

Wheeled Goods Focus Design & Innovation

The Power of Design:

How Innovation is Driving the F

By Scott Blease, Founder, Plan A Product Development When people think about design in the wheeled goods sector, they often think about appearance first. They notice the sleek chassis, the premium fabrics or the latest colourways. But in reality, good design runs much deeper than aesthetics.

At its best, design solves problems. It makes life easier for parents, improves safety, enhances functionality and ultimately creates products that people genuinely love to use. Having spent many years developing products across the nursery sector, I’ve seen first-hand how design has become one of the biggest drivers of innovation within wheeled goods.

The pushchairs and strollers we see on the market today are vastly different from those of even a decade ago. Consumer expectations have evolved rapidly and, as a result, product development teams have had to evolve with them.

Today’s parents are asking more from their products than ever before. They want lightweight solutions, compact folding, travel-friendly features, sustainable materials and premium styling, often all wrapped into a single product. Meeting those expectations isn’t easy, but it’s exactly what is making the sector such an exciting place to be.

Designing Around Real Life One of the biggest shifts I’ve seen is the move towards designing around real-life usage rather than simply meeting technical requirements.

Of course, safety, durability and performance remain absolutely critical. But increasingly, we’re looking at how products fit into everyday family life. How easy is it to fold one-handed?

Can it fit into a small car boot? Will it work just as well navigating a busy airport as it does a local park?

These are the questions driving many of today’s design decisions.

Parents are juggling more than ever, and the products they buy need to keep up. The most successful wheeled goods are those that remove friction from everyday life. In many ways, good design is often invisible. When a product works effortlessly, that’s usually the result of countless hours of design and engineering refinement behind the scenes.

Lighter, Smarter, Better Lightweight design continues to be one of the biggest areas of innovation in the category.

A few years ago, reducing weight often meant making compromises elsewhere. Today, advances in materials and manufacturing techniques mean we can create products that are both lighter and stronger than previous generations.

Refined aluminium structures, improved manufacturing processes and increasingly sophisticated engineering approaches are allowing designers to remove unnecessary weight while maintaining the durability and performance parents expect.

“

Today’s parents are asking more from their products than ever before. They want lightweight solutions, compact folding, travelfriendly features, sustainable materials and premium styling, often all wrapped into a single product.

”

What’s particularly interesting is that consumers now view lightweight design as an expectation rather than a premium feature. Parents don’t want to wrestle with heavy products. They want solutions that are easy to lift, carry and manoeuvre, and that demand is pushing innovation throughout the sector.

The Travel Revolution If there’s one trend that has had a huge influence on wheeled goods design in recent years, it’s travel.

Families are travelling more frequently and, understandably, they want products that travel with them. That has created enormous demand for compact folding systems, airline-friendly dimensions and lightweight travel strollers.

Designing a genuinely travel-friendly product is far more complex than simply making it smaller. Every component has to work harder. Folding mechanisms become more sophisticated, chassis geometries are refined and packaging dimensions become increasingly important.

The challenge is always balancing convenience with comfort and functionality. Parents don’t want to sacrifice performance simply because they’re travelling. The brands that are getting this right are finding clever ways to deliver both.

e Future of Wheeled Goods Fabrics Are Working Harder Than Ever While chassis innovation often grabs the headlines, fabrics have quietly become one of the most important areas of product development.

Modern textile technologies are transforming what parents can expect from wheeled goods. Today’s fabrics need to be durable, easy to clean, breathable, weather resistant and visually appealing. Increasingly, they also need to support sustainability goals.

We’ve seen significant growth in the use of recycled materials and performance textiles, alongside improvements in ventilation and comfort features. Parents are becoming much more informed about the materials used in the products they purchase, and manufacturers are responding accordingly.

What I find particularly exciting is how fabrics are now contributing to both function and brand identity. They’re no longer simply a covering; they’re an integral part of the overall product experience.

Reinventing the Bassinet Another area that has seen some genuinely clever innovation is the bassinet.

Historically, bassinets have often been viewed as essential but bulky components.

They can be awkward to store, difficult to transport and take up valuable space both in retail environments and in consumers’ homes.

Today, we’re seeing designers challenge those assumptions.

Innovative folding bassinets are creating

“

The pushchairs and strollers we see on the market today are vastly different from those of even a decade ago.

Consumer expectations have evolved rapidly and, as a result, product development teams have had to evolve with them.

”

new opportunities for parents who want all the benefits of a traditional bassinet without the storage headaches. Developing these solutions requires careful consideration of safety, comfort and structural integrity, but when done well, they can significantly improve the user experience.

It’s a great example of how design innovation doesn’t always have to be revolutionary. Sometimes the most valuable innovations are the ones that solve everyday frustrations.

Sustainability is Shaping Every Conversation No discussion about modern product design would be complete without mentioning sustainability.

A few years ago, sustainability was often treated as a separate conversation. Today, it’s becoming embedded within the design process itself.

We’re seeing increasing focus on recycled materials, longer product lifecycles, repairability and more responsible manufacturing practices. Consumers are asking tougher questions about where products come from, how they’re made and how long they’ll last.

That’s a positive development for the industry.

Good sustainability and good design should work hand in hand. Products that are built to last, designed thoughtfully and engineered efficiently are often better products in every sense.

Looking Ahead One of the things I love most about working in product development is that innovation never stands still.

As designers, engineers and manufacturers, we’re constantly looking for new ways to improve products and better serve the needs of modern families. Whether that’s through smarter materials, more compact folding technologies, improved sustainability or entirely new product concepts, the opportunities for innovation remain enormous.

What I believe will continue to separate the market leaders from the rest is a commitment to design-led thinking.

Because great design isn’t just about making products look better. It’s about understanding how people live, identifying challenges and creating solutions that genuinely make life easier.

Plan A is one of the leading nursery product development companies.

Founded by Scott Blease, who has worked in the nursery industry for over 25 years, Plan A takes products from the spark of an idea to a fully retail-ready item, covering everything from strategy, design, sourcing and prototyping, to compliance, production and graphic design.
