Sustainable Playtime at Toys & Garden
At Toys & Garden, we place great importance on sustainability and safety. We believe that children should not only be able to play safely but also grow up in a world we carefully protect. Sustainability is essential for the future of our planet and the generations to come. That’s why we are committed to offering environmentally friendly and safe products that contribute to a better world for everyone.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
Collaborating with Responsible Suppliers
We work exclusively with suppliers registered with the Business Social Compliance Initiative (BSCI). This means we can trust that our products are manufactured under fair and ethical conditions. By partnering with BSCI-registered suppliers, we ensure that working conditions are safe and humane, and that no child labor is used.
EPR Registrations for a Clean Future
We have extensive Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) registrations in various countries. These registrations include WEEE, PACK, and BATT. By complying with these EPR regulations, we contribute to recycling and responsible waste management, thereby reducing the environmental impact of our products. Additionally, we are affiliated with PRN (Paper Recycling Netherlands).
Sustainable Materials
Recycled PP/PPE: For the brand Step2, we use recycled polypropylene (PP) and polyethylene (PPE) wherever possible. This helps to reduce plastic waste and contributes to the circular economy.
FSC-Certified Wood: Many of our products are made from 100% FSC-certified wood. This means that the wood comes from responsibly managed forests that are sustainably maintained and replanted.
Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
We adhere to strict Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) standards. This means that we not only focus on our environmental impact but also on our social responsibility. We strive for fair trade practices, respect for human rights, and contributing to community development.
Climate-Neutral Logistics
Our containers are mainly transported via a climate-neutral certified freight forwarder. Since 2021, this forwarder has been completely climate-neutral, contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions in the logistics sector. Additionally, our packages are primarily shipped with a carrier committed to minimizing CO2 emissions. Through these collaborations, we minimize our ecological footprint and contribute to a more sustainable future.
Safe Play is a Priority
At Toys & Garden, the safety of children is our highest priority. All our products meet stringent standards such as UKCA, CE, and EN71. These certifications ensure that our products comply with the highest safety requirements, allowing children to play without worry.
Recognize Our Sustainable Choices
We make it easy for our customers to make environmentally friendly choices. Our products that meet our strict sustainability criteria are marked with our special sustainability badge. This badge signifies our commitment to a greener future and helps our customers quickly and easily identify sustainable products.
