Enjoy slimy sensory play at the kitchen table or tuff tray, or turn your bath water into Eco-friendly slime! Sprinkle the Eco Slime Baff powder into the water and watch it transform into a gooey slime. Feel good about your messy and sensory slime play! When you’re finished, simply add more water to dilute and drain away down the bath or flush down the toilet. It's skin-safe, it's certified to biodegrade in water treatment systems, it's easy to clean and doesn't stain.   What it contains 10 packs, each with 3 sachets of slime bath powder (50g per sachet) in colour green. Each pack makes 3 x 8 litres of slime - good for 3 playtimes or 1 bathtime   Feel great about where it comes from Raw materials from Europe? Yes - EU Organic? No Manufactured in Europe? Yes - UK What's it made from? Sodium acrylate copolymer - this is petroleum-derived but biodegrades in water treatment systems - Copolymer, Parfum, Colourants What's it packaged in? Cardboard and paper Shipping packaging from manufacturer to us: Corrugated cardboard boxes, made partly from recycled material and fully recyclable Plastic-free? Yes and no. The packaging is plastic-free (good!). But the slime itself is arguably a petroleum-derived plastic (albeit one that is certified to biodegrade in water treatment systems, which is where the instructions ask you to dispose of it) Vegan? Yes Free from testing on animals? Yes Reused upcycled or recycled? No   Feel great about where it goes after you've used it Biodegradable / compostable? Certified biodegradable in water treatment systems as per the OECD301B standard, but not compostable Reusable / refillable? No Recyclable? Yes - recycable box, bags & leaflet   Feel great about you and your child using it Great for ages: 3+ Shelf life: 3 years Awards: Toy Verdict Awards, Dad's Choice Awards, Rainbow Toy Awards, Toy Talk Awards, Best New Outdoor Toy Award, Buyers Choice Award, Made for Mums Toy Award, Outdoor Toy Awards, Mums Choice Awards and the Independent Toy Awards! Safety standards met: European toy safety standards (EN71) and American safety standards (ASTM + CPSR). CE-marked Solvent-free? Yes Gluten-free? Yes Peanut-free? Yes Soy-free? Yes Lactose-free? Yes Easy to wash-off clothes / skin? Yes - these products will not stain your bath, skin, clothes or carpet; providing that instructions are followed correctly. Improvements we're working on in this product: We like that's it's free from boron / borates, which are the chemicals in many slimes (including the home-made detergent / contact lens solution slimes) that doctors have concerns about . We like that it's packed plastic-free and it is made in the UK (which gives more confidence in its safety and reduces its toy-miles). We like that it's a powder to which you add water - no shipping water around the world! But we don't love that the slime itself is a petroleum-derivative. We think you'd be better to make slime at home from edible (and therefore also compostable) ingredients like cornflour or chia or marshmallows or gelatin. But if you don't have time / inclination to do that, and you'd otherwise be buying toystore slimes (often made far away, sometimes exceeding EU borate safetly levels, usually packed in plastic, usually transported wet), then this is the single safest, most eco-friendly alternative! Care/use instructions We advise never to have direct skin to powder contact. By following the instructions and gently sprinkling the powder straight from the bag into the water there should not be any situation were skin becomes stained.
