While silicone is naturally resistant to staining, some highly pigmented foods (like tomato sauce, carrots, or blueberries) can cause a slight discolouration over time. We recommend washing the products immediately after use to prevent any potential staining.

Bamboo Products
Our fabric is silky-soft and breathable, made from 70% bamboo and 30% cotton. It's a sustainable, eco-friendly choice that's gentle on your baby's skin and the planet.
Bamboo is naturally softer, more breathable, and better at regulating temperature than cotton. It also has hypoallergenic and antibacterial properties, making it perfect for sensitive or eczema-prone skin.
To keep your MACCIE items in the best condition, we recommend a cold, gentle machine wash with similar colours. Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low or lay flat to dry. Do not iron or bleach. Zip your sleep sacks closed before washing.
Yes! Our products are made with your baby's safety and comfort in mind. Our bamboo fabric is free from harmful chemicals, ensuring it's safe and gentle enough for even the most delicate skin.
