SAFETY & COMPLIANCE
Your character carries your brand name, so it has to be safe. Every plush toy and every piece of merchandise we make meets European law, and you receive the documentation to prove it
How we work
Safety is built in, not checked afterwards
Safety starts with the design: materials, small parts, seams and filling are chosen with European rules in mind. Your sample and your production are tested, every product carries the right labels, and we keep the full file. So when your quality or purchasing team asks for proof, it’s ready.
What you receive
- EU Declaration of Conformity
- Test reports from an accredited laboratory kept for each production
- Technical file, kept for every product
- Correct labelling: CE marking, warnings and traceability information
- Packaging information in line with PPWR

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
The questions brands ask us most, answered in plain words. Don’t see your question? Send it to us and you’ll have an answer within 48 hours.
No. CE marking means the product meets the European requirements. It’s backed by test reports, a technical file and a Declaration of Conformity. That’s the documentation you receive from us.
Yes. A plush toy is almost always treated as a toy, even when it’s a gift for adults, because children will play with it. That’s why we always produce plush to toy safety rules.
Mascot costumes and merchandise such as bags, socks or towels are not toys. They fall under the General Product Safety Regulation, and we make sure they meet it.
