DanToy Tiny Bioplastic Building / Stacking Cups - from age 6 months
€7.99

Jiminy
We love these sustainable toys but we can't compete on price against Smyths so recommend you buy them there - see here.
It's great that a mainstream retailer is stocking bioplastic toys and one day their entire store will be sustainable - meanwhile we'll be here stocking the things they don't yet, and sending you their way once they add them :-)
What it contains
7 bioplastic stacking cups in a cardboard box
Feel great about where it comes from
Raw materials from Europe? No :-( - Brazil
Organic? TBC
Manufactured in Europe? Yes - Denmark
What's it made from?
Bioplastic (specifically Green PE) - an innovative, carbon-neutral material made from the leftovers after sugarcane is harvested. It's carbon-neutral because plants absorb carbon as they grow - whereas petroleum-based plastic has a carbon footprint of up to 6 times its own weight in CO2. Bioplastic is fully recyclable at end of life along with petro-plastics. Think of it as FairTrade coffee - looks the same, tastes the same, but has a very different impact on the world because of how it's produced;
Fillers like Calcium Stearate (an edible salt);
Colourants (these are petroleum-derived and 1.0-1.5% of the material).
What's it packaged in? Cardboard only
Shipping packaging from manufacturer to us: Cardboard only
Plastic-free? 100% free from petroleum-derived plastic - made from bioplastic, see above for the difference. Does contain about 1.5% petroleum-derived colourants
Vegan? Yes
Animal-cruelty-free? Yes
Reused upcycled or recycled? No
Feel great about where it goes after you've used it
Biodegradable compostable?No (but it has a tiny carbon footprint compared to petro-plastic toys)
Reusable refillable? N/A
Recyclable? Yes 100%
Feel great about you and your child using it
Great for ages: 6 months and up
Shelf life: Indefinite
Awards: TBC
Safety standards met: European Toy Safety Standards (CE-marked)
Solvent-free? Yes
Gluten-free? Yes
Peanut-free? Yes
Soy-free? Yes
Lactose-free? Yes
Easy to wash-off clothes / skin? N/A
Improvements we're working on in this product: None, very happy with it!
