Crateits history

What is Crateit?

Crateit are wooden toys that lay up to play with friends, independent immersion and presence with the family.

The wooden toys are made for the children to color and build as they wish. This is where the most imaginative adventures and stories arise.

Valuable cooperation

With Crateit we can proudly say that our products create joy, utility and benefit, as all our products are produced and gathered by adult people with different challenges, in protected workshops.

We have respect for man and therefore focus on creating meaning and responsible work for the citizens concerned.
