‘Green’ Fun under the Sun: Environmentally Friendly Toys for Summer Holidays
Dantoy has launched a brand-new line of bioplastic products for toddlers. The popular “I’m Green” toys are made of at least 90% sugarcane and a sustainable raw material, their bioplastic is 100% recyclable and free from chemicals.
The sugarcane used for Dantoy bioplastics grows in plantations in the southern and central regions of Brazil, more than 2,500 km from the Amazon region. The enlargement of areas for cultivating sugarcane is managed by “Sugarcane Agroecological Zoning”, formed by Brazil’s federal government. The harvested sugarcane is conveyed by train for further processing, which is more eco-friendly than being transported by lorry. Sugarcane can be harvested several times a year. New sugarcane plants are planted every five to seven years. The fields are harvested every six to twelve months enabling them to be classified as a sustainable raw material. Sugarcane absorbs carbon dioxide from the air, thereby minimising the greenhouse effect. For the manufacture of bioplastic, the carbon emissions accounts are positive from the budding of the plant until it is manufactured into bioplastic. For each kilo of manufactured bioplastic, 3.09 kg of carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere.
Dantoy’s packaging is all made from recycled cardboard. Their toys are made to last and are approved for contact with foods, microwave safe, dishwasher safe, frost-proof and contain no toxins.
Dantoy’s range of biotoys, which can be taken to sandpits, the beach, or the mud kitchen, includes the bucket and spade set, and the play dinner set.
The bucket and spade set, which you can win in our competition, helps provide hours of fun filling, tipping, building sandcastles and, most of all, smashing them down. Great for days at the beach, sandpits or even for water play.
The Dantoy Bio-Toy Bucket and Spade 4 piece playset costs £12.99 from SmythsToys.
