Our Products

Are GrowGrows products in compliance with testing standards?

Most definitely.

Our bamboo and organic cotton fabric is OCS certified, with the organic cotton being GOTS certified.

Our factory is OEKO-TEX 100 standard (baby class 1), which basically means products they produce are certified as free from any harmful chemicals or substances.

Not only that, but all our products are tested (chemical and hazardous) via an independent accredited third-party both here in the UK and Türkiye where our products are made, that is in compliance with UK safety standards.

Is there a difference in colour between the product and the actual product?

We always do our best to keep the colours on our website as close as we physically can but of course, each device has it’s own colour settings so there might be a little (albeit hardly noticeable) variation.

If you have any doubt about the colour of a product, then feel free to reach out and we will do our best to answer your query.

How do you recommend caring for GrowGrows?

Here's a little more information on how to best care for your GrowGrows items…

100% organic cotton may shrink with regular washing because it’s not chemically treated. Our fabric contains 30% organic cotton and 70% bamboo which is also not chemically treated.

There are many things you can do to prevent this: 

  • It’s best to wash cold or up to 30°C (but cold is always best)❄️
  • Use a normal or mild detergent🫧
  • Wash inside out (this helps protect the fabric and prevent bobbling)👚
  • Wash with similar colours and fabrics, abrasive materials can cause bobbling👕
  • Re-shape the items while they are damp (simply stretch the fabric back to its original shape if needed after a wash)☁️
  • Air drying is best (it helps save the pennies and the planet)! If tumble drying is necessary, then a cold setting or low heat setting is best🌬️
  • Can be ironed on a low-medium heat🌞

We know that you are super busy and doing some of these things is a bit annoying, but we just want you to get the best out of your clothing. Taking these steps will ensure your favourite GrowGrows items last as long as possible.

A lot of our customers re-sell their GrowGrows items once their little ones have grown out of them because they last so long when following the care instructions!

What size will be best for my little one?

You can find our size charts here for ease. Our sleepsuits have been developed to western (UK and US) industry standards, so are designed to fit comfortably but of course all little ones are different.

When will you re-stock a sold out size or design?

We try our best to make sure we order enough stock for each print design we sell, however we sell out very fast.

All of our GrowSuit designs are produced on a limited edition basis.

We may reorder popular designs or re-introduce them the following year when the season comes back round, but this isn't always guaranteed.

If you want more information about a specific design, do feel free to get in touch with the team and we'll be able to advise when or if we'll be re-stocking.

Shipping Options

Our primary shipping partner is Royal Mail or who work with their international equivalents for international orders. We also offer expedited services from other major carriers. You’ll be asked to select a delivery method during checkout.

What shipping options do you offer?

Our standard UK shipping rate is £4.95 which is a tracked Royal Mail 48 hour service with delivery within 2-3 working days and next-day delivery service available from £6.95.

For European, US, Canadian and Australian orders, we have specific shipping pricing for each country so please see our Shipping page here.

When will my order be shipped?

If you order with us before 12pm (GMT) Monday to Friday, your order will usually be shipped the same day.

If you order after 12pm or on a weekend (Saturday or Sunday) your order will be shipped the next working day (Monday to Friday).

What happens if nobody is in when my order is delivered?

All of our standard shipping services are tracked therefore you can select alternative delivery times, locations or collect from your local post or mail office.

In the UK, Royal Mail typically leave a notecard when they've attempted a delivery.

We also ship smaller orders in letterbox-friendly boxes which fit through 90% of letterboxes in the UK!

Will my parcel be charged additional custom and import charges?

Absolutely not in the UK.

We cover all duties and taxes for the European Union (EU) for orders under €150, but beyond that and the EU we can't guarantee these will be covered. If you have any questions, do get in touch with us.

Custom and Import charges are charged once an item has arrived in its destination country and it’s something we have no control over, as Custom and Import charges vary from country to country.

We would advise that you find out what these charges may be before you place your order.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes, we deliver worldwide. The shipping costs will be calculated when you are completing your shipping information at checkout.

If you are a GrowClub member ordering from outside of mainland UK, we will contribute the cost of our standard UK shipping to your order - so you will only need to pay the additional shipping cost in order to get your GrowClub order delivered to you. This will be calculated at checkout.

How long will my order take to arrive?

Hopefully, just a few days.

We dispatch 95% of orders within 24 hours (Monday to Friday) and our standard UK shipping option takes 1-2 business days.

We expect most UK orders to arrive within 2-3 days of the order being made, if not before.

If you're outside of mainland UK, then please refer to our Shipping page for most up to date shipping times.

International orders can take a little longer depending on the courier and customs. 

Delays are very unusual within our mail system but if this does occur this is unfortunately out of our control but we will do the best that we can to support in these times with updates.

Can I use more than one discount code?

We unfortunatly do not accept more than one discount code at a time!

The only instance this would be possible is if you reach the free shipping threshold, then you would still get your discount plus free shipping.

What is a pre-order and when will my order be shipped?

A pre-order is when you place an order for an item before it is available for shipment. This means that we do not have the item in stock at GrowGrows but it is being made and is on the way to us!

We offer this service as our items frequently sell out so we like to give everyone the opportunity to access our limited edition designs before they are here with us.

The specific dates for when your order will be shipped is on the product page. ✨

If you have ordered in stock items these will be shipped at the same time 🥰
