1. DESIGN
Fashion proof + play proof + future proof!
At Filou & Friends, we believe that every child deserves to grow up carefree, to discover the world through play. We base this on three pillars: fashion proof + play proof + future proof.
2. RESOURCES
Choosing the right resources
We always look for the right resources when designing each collection. Our goal is to ensure that our products are not only safe for children, but also produced fairly for everyone in the supply chain.
3. PRODUCTION
Responsible throughout the entire value chain
At Filou & Friends, we value responsible production with a focus on transparency, ecology and local production. We achieve this by working for years with the same production partners. All companies that share our values.
4. SALE
A premium service for our customer and the planet
As Filou & Friends, we want to be a premium brand with accompanying premium service for our customers. By premium service, we mean becoming a true partner-in-life.
5. USE

6. END OF LIFE
Filou Forever & Social initiatives
Filou Forever is the second-hand brand of Filou & Friends, launched in 2022. Under this name, we want to give clothing that still meets our quality standards a second life. At Filou & Friends, we also think it is important to do our bit for society. We do this in various ways. For example, every year we sell heart pins during the Berre Fund's Cherish Week to support parents and families who have lost a child. We also participate in “De Warmste Week” to raise money for charities.
