Good, Green Eco Fun!
If you didn't know already, Bigjigs are the proud distributors for Green Toys range.
We want to tell you why we love this brand - and why you should too! Green Toys are the most environmentally conscious toy line in the world using 100% recycled plastic - the majority of which are milk bottles (over 26 million to date!) The range offers a wide variety including Cooking & Roleplay Sets, Activity Toys, Vehicles and Outdoor Toys. The Green Toys mission is to deliver high quality, eco-friendly toys that are good for the earth, as well as safe and fun for the little ones who call it home!! Plus they are very strong on their commitments and ethics:
Did you know... 100% Recycled Plastics
All of Green Toys products are made from 100% recycled plastics, the primary source of which is recycled milk jugs - over 26 million so far! Also known as #2 HDPE, this super safe material meets FDA food contact standards...and means they can be put in the dishwasher (score!!)
Safe and Non Toxic
All of Green Toys products are free of BPA, phtalates, PVC, melamine, and external coatings like lead. All of the products meet or exceed all relevant safety standards including EN71 and ASTM (just in case you are not a product safety expert, that means Green Toys are safe for kids of all ages). Saves Energy On average, every pound of recycled plastic used to make Green Toys products saves enough energy to power a TV for 3 weeks! It's also equal to the same energy as 3000 AA batteries or could keep a laptop computer running for a month!
Eco-Friendly packaging
All of Green Toys products are packaged using only recycled and recyclable materials, and are printed with soy inks. No wonder they won the Greener Packaging Award for best practices and sustainable packaging. Plus there are no metal ties, screws or other holding our products in place allowing you to get the product out of the box, and ready to play with in seconds!
Award Winning
Green Toys products have won numerous awards including: Independent Toy Awards, Parenting Magazine Best in Play, Red Tricycle Totally Awesome Award, Oppenheim Platinum, Today's Parent Top Toys and many more! What makes Green Toys such a lovable brand (in our opinion), is that at every process/stage they have thought about how they can make it as environmentally and socially responsibly as possible, whilst ensuring they produce safe and affordable toys for you! Not only can they be played with indoors, and out, but they are also lightweight and sturdy enough to be transported around easily. Whilst we are slightly bias, Green Toys are an awesome brand and we think you should all join the Green side!
