Our Story: From a Small Idea
Welcome! We’re a husband-and-wife team based in the heart of Yorkshire, and we’re the people behind the creations at Purple Panda Designs. What started as a small passion project in 2020 has grown into a busy workshop where we design and manufacture over 70 unique items in-house.
Where It All Began
Our journey started in 2020 originally we focused on high-quality personalised drinks ware, helping people find thoughtful and unique gifts.
As our orders grew so did our imagination. By 2022, we decided to merge our love for technology with our passion for play, introducing a range of 3D printed toys, fidgets and unique gifts.
Why We’re Different
In a market filled with mass-produced items, we pride ourselves on doing things differently:
Personalised for You: We’ve never lost our roots. Whether it’s a custom gift or a specific fidget design, we love adding that personal touch that makes an item truly yours.
Family-Run & Yorkshire-Based: Every order is handled by us, right here in the UK.
Safety First: Unlike many 3D printed retailers, all of our toys are UKCA certified. This means they have undergone rigorous testing to ensure they are durable and, most importantly, safe for your children to play with.
Built to Last: We don’t just make, we craft. We use high-quality materials to ensure our products can handle the rigors of everyday life.
Our Promise
Everything that leaves our workshop is something we’d be proud to have in our own home. We believe in high-quality manufacturing, British safety standards, and the joy of a product that feels just right in your hand.
Thank you for supporting our small business and being part of our story.
