Custom Scented Plush — Encapsulated Fragrance →
A plush that smells of lavender at bedtime, vanilla in a nursery, citrus in a stress-relief gift basket. We integrate encapsulated scent beads into custom plush — IFRA-compliant fragrances, hypoallergenic, 2–3 year scent lifespan, and a slow-release diffusion that doesn't overwhelm the room. Strong fit for sleep / wellness plush, aromatherapy gift programs, newborn comfort plush, and seasonal-themed plush (cinnamon for holiday, fresh-cotton for spring).

Custom Weighted Plush — Therapy & Sensory →
A weighted plush delivers deep-pressure-touch input the same way a weighted blanket does — but in a form a child can hug, a teen can carry to school, an adult can use at a desk. We produce therapy-grade weighted plush with glass-bead or steel-shot fill, distributed across small internal cells so the weight stays even as the plush is held, hugged, or carried. Strong fit for autism / ADHD / anxiety support programs, occupational-therapy practices, and wellness retail brands.
