There’s something about the start of a new school year that makes everything feel fresh — new routines, new goals… and a new list of things to buy. But this year, more families in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar are choosing to do it differently.

Instead of grabbing the usual plastic-heavy supplies, many parents are looking for school gear that’s a little more thoughtful — things that last longer, feel better to use, and don’t add to the pile of waste we all try to avoid.

That’s where Fresk — and Maison Tini — come in. Fresk is a Dutch brand that brings together Scandinavian design and sustainable materials, and their Back to School collection checks all the boxes: functional, fun, and made with real care.

Why Parents Are Switching to Sustainable School Gear

We’ve noticed more and more parents asking: Is there a better option than the usual throwaway stuff? And honestly — yes, there is. Fresk is proof.

Their backpacks are made from recycled PET bottles, their lunch gear is built to last, and their stainless steel bottles actually keep drinks hot or cold (yes, really). Everything is designed with kids in mind — but with an eye on the bigger picture too.

You still get the cute designs. You still get the practicality. But now you also get to feel good about what you’re buying.

What’s Inside the Fresk Collection?

Backpacks That Can Handle It All

 Fresk’s backpacks aren’t just about the prints (though we love the Seahorse and Summer Fruit ones). They’re lightweight, roomy, and made from recycled plastic bottles. For kids aged 0–7, they’ve got just the right amount of space for a lunchbox, water bottle, and the usual mix of books, toys, and “treasures.”

Water Bottles That Work
You know how some kids’ bottles promise to be leakproof… but aren’t? These are the real deal. Made from stainless steel, they keep drinks cool or warm, and they match the rest of the collection too — which always helps when mornings get rushed.

Lunch Bags, Food Jars & Boxes
Fresk’s lunch gear is practical without being boring. Their food jars keep things warm (or cold) for up to 6–8 hours, and everything is easy to clean — a major win if you’re packing lunch five days a week.

Pencil Cases & Wallets
Small but useful. The matching pencil cases and wallets are great for keeping everything in one place — and they add a little personality to your child’s daily routine.

The School Sets That Make Life Easier

Let’s be honest — shopping for school supplies can be a bit much. That’s why Maison Tini put together curated school sets that include everything your child actually needs, in prints that match beautifully. No need to overthink it.

Here’s what’s available:

• Complete School Set – Backpack, large bottle, insulated lunch bag, food jar, and lunchbox
  
  

• Complete Nursery Set – Smaller versions of the same, for little ones
  
  

• Ready, Set, Learn! Set – Backpack, pencil case, and wallet
  
  

• School Essentials Set – Backpack and water bottle for a simpler start
  
  

• After School Set – Backpack + duffel bag for gym days or football practice
  
  

• Swim Class Set – Backpack and swim bag for swim squad days
  
  

They’re not just cute — they’re actually helpful. You get everything you need, and you don’t have to worry about whether things match or fit.

Personalize It (Because Kids Love That)

There’s something special about seeing your own name stitched onto your school bag. Maison Tini offers custom embroidery on backpacks, pencil cases, and swim bags — and it’s not just for the look. It helps keep things out of the lost-and-found too.

Fast Delivery? Of Course.

No one wants to wait around when school is about to start. Maison Tini offers free UAE delivery on orders above AED 300 and same-day shipping in Dubai. If you’re in Saudi Arabia you can get free delivery on orders above 500AED or anywhere in the GCC, orders placed before noon can arrive the very next day.
