Our Story

We're a group of pandas who give a sheet

Not just about bamboo. About making genuinely brilliant everyday essentials that families love to use. Products that are soft, strong, great value, and require no compromise.

We chose bamboo because it helps us make products that are naturally soft, kind to sensitive skin and high quality. It also happens to be one of the fastest-growing plants on Earth. We think that's a much better place to start than cutting down trees for products we use for a few seconds and then throw away, don't you?

It all started with one simple question

When founders Chris and Julie discovered that bamboo could be made into beautiful toilet paper, they couldn't understand why hardly anyone was doing it.

For over a hundred years, we'd just been cutting down mature trees to make toilet paper.

They didn't think that was good enough, so they started Cheeky Panda from their spare room, determined to prove that choosing better shouldn't mean compromising on quality.

Then life gave them one more reason to care

When their son Leo was born with severe eczema, Julie searched everywhere for baby wipes that were gentle on delicate skin and made from plastic free, plant-based materials.

She couldn't find them. So, once again, Julie and Chris decided to make them themselves.

That single product has since grown into a range of personal care essentials, including baby wipes, face wipes, hand wipes and period care, all designed with sensitive skin in mind.

Today, you'll find Cheeky Panda products in Tesco, Waitrose, Morrisons, Boots, Ocado and thousands of homes, hotels and offices across the UK.

Over the years, our team has grown, but our belief remains the same: to make products that care for your family and the planet

Meet Colin, our Cheer Chief Officer

Every movement needs a face. Ours is Colin.

He's curious, cheerful and just a little bit mischievous.

He celebrates the wonderfully ordinary moments of life: restocking the loo roll before someone shouts it's out, surviving the school holidays, keeping little hands clean, sneezing through hay fever season, or finding small ways to make busy days feel a little brighter.

You might find Colin creating children's activity books, cycling around London with a giant billboard, handing out free samples, or popping up with cheerful surprises that make people smile.

Because driving change doesn't have to be serious. It can be playful. It can be joyful. And it can still make a real difference.

We’re here to make bamboo mainstream. From bathroom shelf to travel bag, we’re leading the bamboo revolution, and we’re just getting started!

Our purpose

Our purpose is to help families care better, for themselves, their loved ones and the world around them, through everyday products that deliver quality without compromise.

We believe caring shouldn't mean choosing between quality, value and sustainability. Families deserve all three.

That's why we challenge old ways of making everyday essentials and look for better ones instead.

Better materials. Better products. Better choices.

Because when caring becomes easier, more people choose to do it.

For people who give a sheet

We believe most people quietly care.

They care about their families. They care about doing a good job. They care about friends, neighbours and customers. They care about buying products that work brilliantly and make sense.

They don't need to be perfect. They simply try to do a little better, whenever they can.

Those are our people. People who give a sheet.
