Age grading
Assessed intended age, matching label and small-parts assessment, including parts released during use-and-abuse testing.
THE TOYFREIGHT COLLECTION
Rattles, sensory toys, playmats and early activity products, organised for infant and toddler ranges. Confirm the intended age, materials, small-parts assessment and packaging before ordering.
ABOUT THIS COLLECTION
The Baby & Early Years line covers rattles and teether sets, sensory pull-string toys, cloth books, tummy-time and crawling toys, baby walkers, crib mobiles, activity cubes and play mats. The collection includes different age positions; suitability for a newborn or toddler must be established for the selected model. Confirm the actual plastic, silicone and fabric components against its specification.
Age grading starts with the product's design, play pattern and intended user. The label must reflect that assessment: adding a 3+ warning does not make a toy intended for under-threes suitable for older-child classification. Agree the age grade, testing and warnings before printing artwork.
SPECIFICATION CHECKLIST
These are the variables that make two look-alike models different goods. Fix them in writing before the purchase order.
Assessed intended age, matching label and small-parts assessment, including parts released during use-and-abuse testing.
ABS, PP, silicone or fabric; confirm paint or coating on any decorated parts.
Rattle sound level and pull-cord or strap length, where strangulation limits apply.
Approved cleaning method and any temperature limit; battery format for light-and-sound models. Do not assume a product can be sterilised.
Colour box, blister card or hang tag, insert type and printed languages.
Pieces per export carton, dimensions and whether walkers ship knocked down.
COMPLIANCE BY MARKET
Check that reports cover the selected model, configuration and production site. Review material, colour, component, site and artwork changes for their compliance impact; update documents or repeat affected tests where needed. A category name does not establish compliance.
Applicable ASTM F963 and CPSIA requirements, with model-specific testing and a CPC issued by the US importer for imported children's toys.
Applicable EN 71 requirements, including small-parts checks for toys intended for under-threes, plus the documentation supporting CE marking.
Review changes to materials, colourants, components, production site or artwork; update documents and repeat affected tests where required.
A LITTLE CLARITY
Three export cartons per SKU. Pieces per carton vary by model: compact rattles and bulkier walkers have different packing volumes. Your quotation confirms the actual carton quantity and dimensions. Different SKUs can share a container.
Suitability from birth is model specific. A 3M+ product is not a from-birth product, and a collection name or photograph does not establish the intended age. Ask for the assessed age grade, instructions and matching reports for each selected item.
Yes. Colour boxes, blister cards and hang tags can be produced from AI or PDF artwork, and inserts can be printed in English, Spanish or other languages. MOQ and plate costs are quoted for the final design.
The ASTM F963 third-party report for the exact model, CPSIA lead and phthalate results and the CPC. We provide available model-specific documents; the importer issues the CPC in its own name.
