Form
One silhouette, five scales
The same vector duck at 4 cm and at 3 metres. Proportions are engineered, not linearly scaled — the silhouette still reads as the same bird.

Serious ducks for un-serious people
We make ducks you don't want to put in the bath — you want to put them on a shelf. Small ones in your pocket. Big ones in the foyer. All of them in frame.
4 cm — keyring
30 cm — a cat

02 Manifesto
Why Quacktory
The most banal bathroom object, turned into a piece of design, collecting, and architectural gesture. Four reasons it works.
Material
Single-piece cast rubber
Food-grade silicone or natural rubber with EPDM additives. No plastic inserts, no metal inside, no glued seams. The whole duck is one pour.
Eyes
Painted, not stuck on
Pigment is applied after vulcanisation, by hand, with food-safe silicone dye. UV- and water-stable. No vinyl stickers on the body, ever.
Compliance
EN 71-3, REACH, GOST
Migration of chemicals tested. No phthalates, no bisphenol A. Every batch ships with a passport; every Architect ships with a certified-montazh crew.

04 Production
How we make them
Five production methods, one material logic, five quality checks per duck. The factory is small. The protocol is not.
Material
Cast, not assembled
Vulcanised rubber. The body is one mould, the eyes are painted after. No plastic inserts, no metal inside, no glued seams. Indoor only.
Tooling
A mould per scale
Steel for Micro, aluminium for Classic and Designer, fibreglass rotational moulds for Mega, CNC-foam master models for Architect. Each has its own cycle time.
QC
Five checks per duck
Visual, geometry, drop test, smell, weight within ±3%. Architect adds ultrasonic weld inspection and a photo protocol of the install.
Compliance
Age marks on the box
Micro 4 cm: 6+ with a separate choking-hazard sticker. Classic: 3+. Designer: 6+, collectable. Mega: not a toy. Architect: certified install only.
05 Segments
Where Quacktory works
Four audiences, four different entry points. The same duck, read four different ways.
Segment A
Impulse buyer
Instagram and TikTok native. Wants the viral, the meme-able, the gift under 500 ₽. Hates pretense and long copy.
Segment B
Parent
Child between 3 and 10. Cares about safety, durability, price. Distrusts anything that reads as "too fashionable" — assumes it is fragile.
Segment C
Design collector
Architect or designer, 25 to 50. Wants the limited run, the author credit, the back-story. Distrusts mass-market and anonymous goods.
Segment D · B2B
Brand & event
Hotels, agencies, wedding planners. Wants custom Pantone matched through-pigment, not paint over a stock duck. Quote on request.
06 B2B
Custom, by the menu
Custom doesn't mean "paint it your colour." It means picking from the twelve-colour Quacktory Pigment Menu — pigment goes into the mass before the pour, so it never chips.
-
Scale
Pick a line
Micro, Classic, Designer, Mega or Architect. Lead time and price depend on the line, not the colour.
-
Colour
Pick from the TPM
Twelve Pantone-equivalent brand pigments. The colour goes into the body, so it never chips, never fades at the edges, never peels.
-
Quote
Get a fixed line in the quote
Three weeks for Micro and Classic, six for Designer and Mega, twelve for Architect. Predictable lead times for the procurement team.
-
Off-menu
Off-Pantone? New formula
Fully custom Pantones are a separate line — +2 weeks and +15%. New geometry is a separate project altogether, with its own master model.
