meets this planet happy criteria:

we love this company because:
Plan Toys is strongly committed to manufacturing fine-quality and safe educational toys under environment-friendly conditions. The timber they use is plantation rubberwood (Hevea Brasiliensis), which is recovered from old rubber trees after they no longer generate latex and are due for burning. They process and kiln-dry the timber, in a chemical-free environment; no wood preservatives are used whatsoever. The paint which is used to varnish Plan Toys products is non-toxic water-based paint which has been scientifically tested by independent accredited laboratories and found to be safe for children and non-polluting in natural water sources. Natural latex glue is used to do all the joining work on their toys. In certain cases, they do however need to use plywood in their production. Special care has been taken to ascertain that the plywood used complies with E1 standards, thus ensuring emissions of urea formaldehyde at levels below those acceptable to the World Health Organization (WHO). We also really love that PVC is not used in their packaging and all of their cardboard cartons can be fully recycled.

+ Plan Toys has been certified with Thai Labor Standard TLS 8001 and Social Accountability standard SA8000. Consequently, PlanToys has received a code of conduct rating of 7/8 from the Ethical Toys Report in UK
