The Orion Wrap is a soft, stretchy baby wrap designed to keep little ones close while freeing up a parent's hands, suited for babies from 8 to 25 pounds. Its universal fit accommod ates wearers from XXS to XXL+, including petite and plus-size body types, thanks to a design of approximately 5.5 yards of fabric. The wrap is intended for close, hands-free bonding during the early months of a baby's life. The wrap is made with 100% TENCEL Modal fabric, a lightweight and breathable material certified to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100. It is sewn in Los Angeles. For care, it should be machine washed on a cold, gentle cycle and tumble dried on low, without bleach, and any stains should be pretreated with an enzyme-based product before drying to avoid setting them in. The Orion Wrap is certified Hip-Healthy by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute and meets U.S. CPSC safety requirements. To avoid unintended holes, it should not be washed with items that have snaps, buttons, Velcro, or zippers, and nothing, including pacifier clips, should be clipped directly to the fabric.

We don't take paid placements or sponsored rankings, so a score is never influenced by who pays to be seen. This product's TrustScore: 91/100 — weighted across 9 criteria: Airway & Positioning Safety: 92/100 Safety Standard Compliance: 84/100 Hip-Healthy Design: 92/100 Carrier Textile Chemistry: 92/100 Recall History: 97/100 Structural Load Integrity: 94/100 Textile & Foam Chemistry: 91/100 Certification Credibility: 92/100 Transparency & Support: 89/100 Certifications OEKO-TEX Certified — Issued by OEKO-TEX (Standard 100). OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certifies that every component of a textile item has been lab-tested and found free of harmful substances above set limits. What it does not cover: It tests for chemical residues only and does not certify general product safety features like choking hazards, flammability, or mechanical construction. These certifications are held by the brand or manufacturer, not by Birch. We show them because the brand states them for this product.

Here's our research: Airway & Positioning Safety — 92/100The TICKS rule is taught in full for this wrap — tight, in view at all times, close enough to kiss, keep chin off chest, supported back — with an 8 lb minimum, an explicit ban on forward-facing and back carrying in the wrap because of the pressure it puts on a baby's spine and joints, and free photo fit checks and virtual consults from an on-staff babywearing educator. It is a single length of fabric tied against the wearer rather than a bag-style or deep cradle sling, and the same TICKS guidance is repeated in independent write-ups of the wrap. Safety Standard Compliance — 84/100The wrap meets U.S. CPSC safety requirements and is safety-tested for babies 8 to 25 pounds, and the maker and its Los Angeles sewing house are identified. The applicable sling-carrier standard is not named, and no children's product certificate, accredited-lab report or JPMA certification is published. Hip-Healthy Design — 92/100This wrap carries a Hip-Healthy certification from the International Hip Dysplasia Institute, asserted for the wrap itself, and it is designed to support healthy hip and spine development through baby's first year and beyond; an independent reviewer wearing it with legs out found her baby's legs sat in the correct position. No leg-spread or knee-to-knee measurements are published for the wrap, and no certificate reference is given. Carrier Textile Chemistry — 92/100The fabric — TENCEL Modal from sustainably managed Austrian beechwood forests — is certified to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100, the dyes are free of AZO compounds, phthalates and metals, no flame retardants are used, and the wrap has no foam padding to certify. The OEKO-TEX product class is not stated and no certificate number is published. Recall History — 97/100We queried the full CPSC recall corpus — 9,944 records spanning June 1973 to August 2026 — and Solly Baby appears nowhere in it, in any role, at any date. Control checks in the same corpus return hundreds of records for crib, stroller, toy and pacifier products, so children's gear classes are covered and the clean result reflects the brand's absence rather than a failed search. Structural Load Integrity — 94/100There are no buckles, rings or webbing to fail — the wrap is a single length of fabric roughly 5.5 yards long — and it is safety-tested and rated for babies 8 to 25 pounds, with guidance to stop using any wrap that has holes, snags or tears. Parents do report the fabric stretching and needing a re-tie as babies get heavier, one finding pressure built from around 17 pounds, well under the stated ceiling; no seam or fabric load-test results are published. Textile & Foam Chemistry — 91/100No flame retardants are used, and the dyes are AZO-, phthalate- and metal-free; the fabric is certified to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100, and this wrap contains no foam at all. The disclosure stops short of PFAS, which is not addressed anywhere, though no stain-resistant, water-repellent or antimicrobial finish is claimed either. Certification Credibility — 92/100The wrap is certified Hip-Healthy by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute, its TENCEL Modal fabric is certified to OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100, and the wrap meets U.S. CPSC safety requirements — all named for this product rather than for a supplier. No licence or certificate numbers are printed, and the OEKO-TEX product class is not specified. Transparency & Support — 89/100The fabric is named — TENCEL Modal from sustainably managed Austrian beechwood forests — and the wrap is sewn in Los Angeles at a family-run sewing house. The mill is not named and no warranty term is published. Show more
