Why it’s Green

  1. They use recycled plastic milk jugs to start with. They break it down to high density polyethylene (HDPE). This material is the cleanest and safest plastics around.
  2. The toys are made right here in California. This means less energy is produced to transport the toys around the country and emits lower levels of greenhouse gases. Also it is great to support products that are made in the USA.
  3. Green Toys are packaged in recycled corrugated boxes and don’t use any plastic or cellophane or twist-ties. This makes it safe for kids to open up the packages themselves.
  4. The toys safety levels are tested by third party companies. The toys also don’t contain any exterior coating, to eliminate any fears of lead paint. They also pass all the following tests:
  • Consumer Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA)
  • Consumer Products Safety Standard Specification, ASTM F963
  • California Prop. 65 restrictions on lead & cadmium
  • FDA regulations for food contact
  • Voluntary testing for no BPA (Bisphenol-A)
  • International standards EN71 and ISO 8124
