WITH OVER 70 YEARS TESTING EXPERIENCE, CAN YOU AFFORD TO TEST YOUR TOY PRODUCTS WITH ANYONE ELSE?

With products such as Toys which are aimed at baby, toddler and our youth, safety is of the upmost importance. Testing your products for things like Choking Hazards, Impact Hazards, Fibre Hazards, Projectile Hazards and Chemical Hazards aren’t just for protection, they are mandatory to sell Toy products in the UK and Europe.

At Bureau Veritas we have a team dedicated to working with Toy Manufacturers, Distributors and Retailers to ensure that the products which are sold in the UK and Europe are of the highest standards, meet the strictest of safety regulations and cause no harm to the children they are intended for. 

Meet our TOY TEAM – with over 70 years combined experience, we are one, if not the, most experienced Toy testing team in the UK. Not only are we experienced in testing, we offer a vast range of services, including Research and Development, advice on bringing new products to market and training seminars on Toy Safety in Europe.

Simon is our hands on Technical consultant based in our UK lab and works with our clients to make sure their products are of the highest standards.

Claire Francis – Toy Department Manager - Claire has 20 years’ experience in consumer product testing, most of which is with Toys.

BASED IN WARRINGTON UK

 Our TOY TEAM is based in our UK laboratory in Warrington, Cheshire which is a UKAS accredited lab. Our UK lab is part of a global network of laboratories specialising in Consumer Product testing, so if you have products which are manufactured anywhere around the globe, we have a solution which can help you bring your products to market. 

OUR TOY TEAM WILL BE AT The Toy Fair 2019 - STAND GH36

?This year we will be exhibiting at stand GH36 and we are right in the main isle of the trade show, so you cannot miss us!

We have created a Rubik's www.rubiks.com branded cube, showing the products we test within our UK lab and we want to give one to everyone who attends our stand! It’s simple, come along, try and solve our mixed up cube, leave your details (maybe have a photo taken for our social channel?) and take your very own cube away with you.

 As well as our cube, we will have our TOY TEAM on hand to answer any questions, give advice on new products and just be there to say hello!

So if you are passing, drop by, we don’t bite!

If for any reason you can’t make the Toy Fair and would like to speak to one of our experienced team, you can contact us on t: 01925 854 360 or e: [email protected]
