Ethical Choice is Moominvalley Park's original brand
The Ethical Choice logo is applied to comprehensive efforts to develop in-facility production environments, foods, products, materials and services based on ethical and sustainable choices (selection) that place no burden, neither tangibly nor intangibly, on the human body or the environment.
Ethical Choice debuted with “Apron Many Times"
The Reusable Bib comes with the Kids Meal Bucket available at Moominvalley Park. It is a tangible expression of coexistence with nature, made of Paptic®, a resource-efficient material produced from renewable wood fibres by Paptic Ltd., that is durable to allow reuse but flexible and soft to the touch. The idea behind this product is for children wear the bib while enjoying their meal at Moominvalley Park and then use the bib again at home.
