Plush & Clothing

Sustainability is one of the top priorities at The Bear Factory. We do offer eco-friendly plush through our “Plush for the Planet” line. These animals are made from 100% recycled materials. All our plush is now pre-filled with recycled fiber as well. To learn more about our Plush for the Planet line, click here.

Individual fiber packs/bulk stuffing options are available for hand stuffing and machine fibre. For more information please click here.

We do offer custom t-shirts and printing for the animals. If you are interested in purchasing custom apparel click here. We also offer a custom plush program. For more information on this, please email hello@thebearfactory.com or click here.

The Bear Factory holds the United Stated patent for the locking zipper closure. Since 2002 we have been using this closure which utilizes a zipper with the string attached to the zipper head that is removed after stuffing is completed. This allows the zipper head to lock and secure the animal so children cannot open the back of the animal. We also have a fabric material that covers each side of the velcro closure so any customers that stuffs by hand will not have fiber get into the velcro closure.

It takes about 40g of fiber to fill our 8” plush and 100g to fill our 16” plush if hand stuffing.

Machine fibre uses approx. double the amount needed for hand filling, 80g for 8″ plush and 200g for 16″ plush.

Yes, ALL of our products are tested each year to make sure we comply with any and all toy industry standards. We carry the ASTM-F963 safety certification for all of our United States products, and the EN-71 certification for Europe.

Yes, we have two standard sizes of plush. We carry a small 8” product line and a large 16” product line. Our sizes are true to size compared to many of our competitors. Our plush line also includes stuffing in the head and paws which decreases the amount of fiber you have to use to stuff the animals.
