Succeeding in the highly regulated toys and children’s products market

Families and educators buy toys and products for their children — our most vulnerable end users — hoping to find items on the shelves that are safe, high quality and increasingly sustainable. People want to be confident your products don’t contain dangerous substances, or that they don't put the health of little ones at risk with sharp edges or small parts that the child could ingest, and many aspects need to be considered. Consumers want to trust toy and children's products brands and retailers that the item went through rigorous testing and checks.

International technical committees and working groups work hard to maintain higher safety and quality standards that toys and children’s products must undergo in order to access global markets.

Moreover, the topic of sustainability is becoming increasingly popular in this market as well. The idea of raising our children in a healthier and more protected world leads consumers to search for items from brands and retailers who pay more attention to the environment.

Last but not least, the number of connected and smart children’s products is growing, providing unique experiences to our children. This does not come without a new set of critical risks: from cybersecurity to radio frequency exposure, you as a brand or retailer have to put more topics on your list before launching your item in your destination markets.

Toys and children’s products brands, retailers and manufacturers are looking to implement innovative sustainable approaches to respond to the increasing demand for socially and environmentally sustainable products.
