Toy & Juvenile Products
Testing Services

Safety and quality are fundamental concerns for consumers, particularly for parents, who buy toys and other products related to children. However, the toys and juvenile products landscape is changing, and changing fast.
• Regulatory requirements continue to evolve in both emerging and mature markets, especially around hazardous chemicals
• The online sales channel is growing rapidly
• Video games and apps on smart phones / tablets continue to gain share
• Connected toys are increasingly dominant in the physical toy/juvenile product space
• Suppliers need to understand wireless technology and sell to more countries across more channels to stay competitive
• Disruptive technologies such as 3D Printing are evolving bringing about additional responsibilities

The integration of wireless technology with toys particularly brings about a whole new range of challenges for both the toy industry integrating technology and the technology industry moving into toys:
• How to effectively integrate technology?
• Which technology will bring about the best performance?
• How to demonstrate toy safety or wireless conformance compliance?
• How to verify information security?
• How to understand and comply with current and future toy safety regulations?

Our services are designed to assist manufacturers, retailers, and importers in minimizing the risk of late shipment, liability, costly product returns, and recalls.
