Our commitment to sustainability
Time Ahead – Making a difference today for tomorrow
Since its founding in 2021, Time Ahead Sweden has grown into a brand that places sustainability and quality at the forefront. Our mission is to provide parents with environmentally friendly and practical alternatives to disposable products through modern cloth diapers and textile accessories. Driven by a commitment to sustainability, we strive to simplify parents’ daily lives while making a positive impact on our planet – a difference that starts today and shapes tomorrow.
Together for Cleaner Oceans
At Time Ahead Sweden, we are committed to reducing plastic pollution in our oceans and rivers. Through monthly donations to Seven Clean Seas, we contribute to the collection and recycling of approximately 70–100 kg of plastic per year. This support helps fund projects across various regions, focusing on cleaning the oceans and creating sustainable pathways for recycled plastic.
In addition, we use GRS-certified (Global Recycled Standard) recycled plastic in our products, ensuring that resources are managed responsibly and ethically. By choosing our products, you are not only supporting sustainable materials but also helping to keep our oceans cleaner. Throughout the year, we may also provide additional support to specific sustainability projects that align with our mission.
"As a producer, we believe we have a great responsibility to reduce our environmental impact. We may not be able to collect every kilogram of plastic we use, but by choosing recycled plastic for our diapers and supporting plastic removal initiatives, we are taking important steps to give back to our planet. This choice comes at a higher cost to us, but we believe it’s worth it to offer a more sustainable product – without passing that cost onto our customers."
Sustainability work
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do. Our products are designed to last and are made with care for both people and the environment. We collaborate with factories that meet strict requirements for working conditions and sustainability standards. These factories are certified according to international standards such as SEDEX and SGS, ensuring that production takes place under fair working conditions. We are committed to working with factories that promote equality and ensure that workers have safe and fair working conditions.
Our material choices
To ensure long-lasting durability and safety in our products, we use carefully selected and certified materials. Our products are made from materials that are gentle on both children and the environment:
OEKO-Tex certified textiles
The majority of our products are certified according to OEKO-Tex Standard 100, meaning they are free from harmful chemicals and safe to use next to children's skin.
SGS-certified materials
Products in our Basic series that are not made from OEKO-Tex certified materials are produced with materials certified by SGS. SGS certification ensures that the materials have undergone rigorous testing to meet international standards for safety, quality, and sustainability.
r-PET
Many of our cloth diapers are made from r-PET, a recycled material derived from plastic bottles. This material is certified by the Global Recycled Standard (GRS), guaranteeing that the recycled material comes from responsibly managed sources and is produced with consideration for both environmental and social factors regardless of gender or background.
FSC-labeled packaging
We use recycled materials in our packaging as much as possible, and they are FSC-certified. The FSC label ensures that the packaging comes from responsibly managed forests and supports sustainable forestry.
