Organic Rubberwood from trees which no longer produce latex. To keep the rubber wood pure, no fertilizer is added to the soil for three years before the trees are cut. To strengthen the wood, PlanToysŪ uses a special chemical-free kiln drying process.

Soy & Water-based Ink on their printed materials. These inks are more readily biodegradable and can be recycled more efficiently than standard chemical ink. A ,link to their regular paint tests can be found here.

Recycled and Recyclable Material to minimize our impact on the environment.

Where They Make Their Products:

Thier operations use solar energy and low emission biofuels to power the machinery that kiln dries the wood and the finished toys.
PlanToys is also actively engaged in the development of alternative renewable energy sources. We are now using biomass to produce heat. Wood scraps and wood chips left over from manufacturing toys are burned as fuel for the kiln drying process instead of using chemical preservatives. Biomass is also used in the curing and plywood moulding process. This form of energy helps reduce electricity usage and waste. Plan Toys will soon be using a Biomass Steam Turbine Generator, which is currently in the development phase.

Their operations and factories have acquired and maintained the following third party business operation certifications:
Environmental Management (ISO 14001) : Confirming their to environmental awareness both locally and globally.

We initiated a work-generating plan which has significantly increased the local standard of living. We provide opportunities for those with disabilities to work in our company.

As part of our commitment to children's education and development, we have founded a community learning center and The Children's Toy Museum. We regularly sponsor many enrichment programs for children through our PlanNeramit Project. This helps to foster a love of learning outside the classroom.
