Clean Ingredients / Materials
Australian made pointelle fabric in 100% certified organic cotton.
Ethical Practices
The UME swaddle is crafted from unbleached, 100% certified organic cotton and is designed to be low-tox, making it allergy and asthma-friendly for newborns. It is produced ethically in Australia from Australian fabric, with independent testing confirming a 0% formaldehyde result and a 0% AZO dye result by the Australian Wool Testing Authority (AWTA).
Sustainable Practices
UME Australia utilises recyclable, Australian-made packaging, including shipping boxes, tissue paper, stickers and cards, to create a sustainable supply chain with a reduced carbon footprint. They employ minimal packaging and take pride in the custom-printed boxes sourced from a family-owned paper mill in Melbourne. The filler for their playmat range is organic Australian wool, chosen to avoid synthetic materials like polyester. Both wool and cotton are breathable, hypoallergenic and decompose at the end of their life cycle, aligning with a circular fashion business model. The fabric used is certified organic, produced by Australian manufacturers without fumigants, ensuring its environmental friendliness. Furthermore, toxicity reports from the AWTA are available to support UME Australia’s sustainability efforts.
Social Impact
Since its inception in 2020, UME has supported numerous small Australian manufacturers and suppliers by prioritising locally made components. The brand is committed to an Australian supply chain, which is central to its ethos. Their signature organic pointelle fabric, the only Australian-made pointelle, is knitted in Melbourne by a family-owned fabric manufacturer, which led to the recommissioning of a specific knitting machine that had been unused for over 20 years. Engaging Australian family businesses is a source of pride for the brand and contributes to the strength of the local manufacturing and textile industry.
Product Reviews by Experts
What I like most about the UME Australia organic cotton swaddle is how soft, breathable and gentle it feels against a baby’s skin. The pointelle knit adds a beautiful touch of texture and stretch, making swaddling both effective and comfortable. It’s versatile enough to use not only as a swaddle but also as a light blanket, nursing cover up or pram cover, which makes it a staple item for everyday parenting. I’m impressed by UME Australia’s commitment to using GOTS-certified organic cotton, which ensures their materials are free from harmful chemicals and produced in an environmentally responsible way. It’s clear the brand values transparency and sustainability throughout their supply chain, which includes ethical labor practices and thoughtful packaging choices. Their dedication to high standards while remaining gentle on the planet stands out.
This cotton swaddle blanket pointelle is soft and stretchy, perfect for first time parents to wrap their newborns in! In saying this, I love that this swaddle can be used for other purposes such as being used as a cover when breastfeeding given its lightweight, breathable make up. The natural colour goes with everything and the beautiful pattern and large size allows it to be used for any occasion. UME’s desire to work towards a circular fashion business model is fantastic and the way they have combined the use of organic, natural materials and Australian based companies to do this is great! I am in awe of what they have achieved and in their passion to create sustainable, non-toxic products and manufacturing.
This wrap is not only so visually beautiful it is texturally beautiful too. I love the knitted look and feel, it is unusual and feels very luxurious. I will be gifting this to friends that have babies as it is so lovely and one of a kind. UME being 100% made in Australia is the most impressive part of their ethical and sustainable impact. Recommissioning a specific knitting machine that had not been in use for over 20 years is incredible and inspiring.
