Unless considered to be safe following substances and mixtures or rigorous scientific evaluation.
2009 structure, called “heavy elements gibi such as mercury and cadmium, is not permitted in toy parts accessible to children beyond the limits specified in the Toy Safety Directive 48 / 19 / EC.
55 allergen smell banned. However, some and another 11 may be used in some toys provided that they are specified on the label and comply with additional requirements.
