Gratnells – CloudCubby™
CloudCubby™ is Gratnells hygienic, durable and child‑safe alternative to traditional wicker storage, designed to meet the real demands of early years and primary learning environments. Developed in response to extensive teacher feedback, CloudCubby™ addresses long‑standing issues with wicker baskets, including poor durability, difficult cleaning, and safety concerns such as splinters, frayed edges and trapped dirt. Research with UK educators revealed widespread safety worries and significant weekly cleaning burdens, highlighting the need for a more resilient solution.
CloudCubby™ delivers this through robust, precision‑engineered construction, a smooth wipe‑clean surface and built‑in BioCote® antimicrobial protection that reduces bacteria by 97%. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, it supports free‑flow learning, messy play and everyday classroom routines without warping, breaking or absorbing moisture. Its ergonomic design empowers children to access and transport resources independently, enhancing organisation and promoting self‑directed learning.
With a lifetime guarantee and recyclable design, CloudCubby™ offers a sustainable, cost‑effective alternative to fast‑wearing wicker storage. Early reviews report reduced cleaning time, improved classroom hygiene and greater child engagement. Praised by teachers and early years professionals for its strength, safety and practicality, CloudCubby™ represents a modern, future‑proof storage solution for educational settings that allows teaching to follow the play, anywhere.
