Founder Nilofer Rao started Bubz after her sister's pregnancy and is now a mom to twins.
Bubz is a babywear brand that uses bamboo fabric with hand-painted prints and thoughtful functionality.
The fabric is viscose from bamboo, making it soft, breathable, and moisture-managing for India's warm climate.
Products are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 Class 1 certified, use AZO-free dyes, and have tagless labels.
Features include two-way zippers, zipper guards, fold-over mittens and foot cuffs, side-neck buttons, and top-to-waistband buttons.
Packaging uses compostable corn-starch polymailers and reusable ziplock bags.
The brand aims to become the go-to bamboo essentials brand for babies and toddlers in India.

The Indian kidswear market is competitive, and parents are more conscious about fabric, safety, and functionality.
Bubz focuses on customer education through website, social media, and product demos, with strongest retention after first purchase.
Pricing is accessible for regular use, not reserved for special occasions.
Production is in controlled quantities, and designs work across sleep, play, and outings.
