About us
Our story began in 2001, just before the “Build Your Own Plush” movement became all the rave. This interactive concept of stuffing your own unstuffed plush animals quickly became a great activity for children. The movement quickly created a new division in the plush toy industry that continues to grow, with thousands of retailers incorporating the “Build Your Own” model into their stores and vacation resorts worldwide. Since that time, The Bear Factory has been the leading plush supplier worldwide in innovation, quality, and sustainability. With the creation of “Plush for the Planet, the first sustainable stuff a plush line made of recycled fabrics, in 2020 we remain the only supplier of environmentally conscious plush skins worldwide. We encourage you to join us in our mission of creating lasting memories while also educating the next generation on the importance of animal and environmental conservation.

The idea behind recycling and sustainability is primarily focused on reducing waste, conserving resources, and minimizing environmental impact, rather than saving literal time. When communities engage in recycling, they help reduce landfill use, decrease pollution, and conserve energy needed for producing new materials. This has long-term benefits for the planet, which can indirectly lead to time savings in terms of resource management and environmental restoration. #PlushforthePlanet How many seconds can you offset with your sustainability efforts?
