The cradle is designed with a plastic material to which an additive is added that reduces its biodegradability time. Now some clarity on the environmental and management aspects of the Kokono product and project:ġ) What do we mean when we say that Kokono is green? Additionally, KOKONO™ is a solid and robust item, re-usable to minimize the tendency to single-use consumption, typical of mass-market products.

In both cases, it is not possible to keep the baby on their back the whole day, so they are forced to leave the baby on the ground – often muddy or humid – for long hours, or to quit their job. Women empowerment (SDG 5) ⟹ KOKONO™ helps women living in rural areas or suburbs, whose subsistence is linked to daily farming activities or in small retailing markets or shops.Safe infrastructures and living spaces (SDG 11) ⟹ KOKONO™ is an affordable object, conceived specifically to address the functional and spatial needs and characteristics of domestic spaces and environments in Developing Countries.Health (SDG 3) ⟹ KOKONO™ diffusion prevents the exposure of babies (0-12 months) to the three main risks for their health and safety: infectious diseases, like malaria – which contracted in the first months of life leads to death in the 80% of cases – animal attacks and accidental injuries.KOKONO™ has been designed from scratch to be aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations Agenda 2030.

This is visible in its design, ideated by the designer Enrico Bassi: versatile, robust and simple in its materials, for their 70% biodegradable in its inclusive business model which aims at entering the local market with an accessible price and thanks to the engagement of local partners in the partnerships that have been enforced to create a powerful ecosystem of actors able to support and contribute to KOKONO™’s diffusion. The innovativeness of KOKONO™ is to be born for addressing the needs of low-income communities. KOKONO™ will physically protect them, indoor and outdoor, while staying at home or moving.
