Description
The Kawan Rubberwood duck is, in our opinion, the most adorable rubber wood puzzle and decorative toy out there.
Have you been looking for toys for your kids that are fun to play with and also look nice scattered around your home? We know this isn’t an easy feat.
Painted in bright and non-toxic colours, no BPA, phthalates, plastic or other “Baddies”, the duck shape sorters are handcrafted from Sri Lankan decommissioned Fair Trade Rubberwood. Purchasing the Kawan Rubberwood shape sorter is therefore both excellent for the environment and helps empower local women from less privileged communities in Sri Lanka.
The Kawan Puzzle is a classic educational and discovery toy with a nostalgic touch. With the elegant and sturdy wooden construction, the child learns to distinguish colours and shapes. It is painted with harmless, natural colour pigments and therefore absolutely safe for children.
Kawan is from Malaysia, where his name means Friend. Safe by Nature, beautiful by Design.
Arrives in a cute box made from FSC certified paper and biodegradable materials with Hevea signature graphics printed in vegetable inks.

About the Company
HEVEA is not just a brand; it’s a story with its own purpose. The HEVEA story is about how we want to leave fingerprints on the world – a fingerprint showing that we strive to do better, to create a more mindful way of taking care of the planet we leave for future generations.
HEVEA is inquisitive. We test, try and make tangible efforts to link sustainable thinking with aesthetic design. We are constantly developing, and we always allow the best ideas to guide us, even though we seldom know where they are going to lead.
HEVEA is more than what meets the eye. We are innovators in natural rubber, in design, in ways to work together, in processes and in distribution.
HEAVE began as a question
Historically, HEVEA began as a question that needed an answer: how to take care of our children and our planet just a little bit better. That makes everything quite simple for us: we were born of an urge to do better. To show that how we act and live in the world makes a difference to ourselves, and our children – the citizens of tomorrow. The lack of natural options for our future generations and the choices we have to make was what made us turn to Hevea Brasiliensis – natural rubber, and this has formed the basis of our mission and our purpose from the very beginning.
PLASTIC IS PASSÉ, NATURAL IS NOW
Hevea, or natural rubber, can replace many kinds of plastic. Hevea decomposes naturally and can be reused to make new products. The wood of the tree itself and the rubber are our only self-imposed limitations when it comes to designing and developing new products. However, this hardly feels limiting as we are still getting to know these materials better and better. In all our curiosity, we keep firmly in contact with our roots and our reason for being here: to give you the option of creating a fingerprint that is slightly better than the one we inherited.
Great design & natural materials
Geographically, our mix is unique. While the hevea trees grow mainly in Southeast Asia, and much of our production requires skills and facilities found close to the plantations where the hevea is harvested, our design philosophy is inherently Danish. Unifying the beautiful design with clear functionality is the core of the renowned Danish design tradition, and we stick to this in discovering and developing all that our cherished hevea can offer.
