Eurofins’s toy inspection key aspects
Our dedicated team of inspectors follows a rigorous, on-site inspection protocol tailored to meet your specific requirements and toy products’ categories. No matter your products are plush toys, wooden toys or electronic toys, the quality inspection protocols can be designed to best fit your expectations.
We cover every critical aspect of toy safety and quality to ensure compliance with international standards and customer expectations, which include but not limit to:
- Safety
Safety is everyone’s top priority when it comes to toys. We thoroughly review toys to ensure they are free from hazards, including sharp edges, insect or mildew contamination, foreign objects, improper warnings or markings, and potential leakages. - Appearance
We inspect the overall appearance of toys to verify size accuracy, colour consistency, absence of scratches/stains, and ensure there are no unpleasant odors. Proper stuffing levels in plush toys and quality of printing and painting of cardboard toys are assessed, for example. - Materials
We assess the quality and safety of materials used in toy production, including plastic, wood, metal, fabric, and paper, ensuring they present no appearance defects and hazards on the toys. - Functionality
We conduct thorough operational testing to confirm that all mechanical and electronic components of the toys function properly and safely. - Packaging
Proper packaging is vital to protect toys during transit and display. We examine the packaging process, including markings, labels, carton durability, packing methods, and the materials used to ensure compliance and product safety. - Sales packaging
First impressions matter. On top of the aesthetic values, packaging of toys carries essential product safety information required by law in most markets. Quality of sales packaging is examined to ensure that it is free from damage, properly sealed, and visually appealing.Our inspections also verify that instruction manuals, tags, labels, warnings, marks and other packaging components, such as accessories or batteries, are included and correctly presented.
