Although our products
scream fun we take the business of safety very seriously.When it comes to children, there is no room
for compromise and no reason to cut corners.This is why we have always gone above and beyond what was required of us
to ensure that our products, once in the hands of kids, would guarantee a safe
experience.
Here is how we ensure
that everything that we design, produce and sell is indeed safe.First and foremost, every iKids product is
tested to meet or exceed all required Federal standards. These include the
requirements for toys established by the United States Consumer Product Safety
Commission including the Federal Hazardous Substances Act Regulations, 16 CFR
1500.3 (c)(6)(vi) Flammable Solid, Total Lead Content –
U.S. Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), Title I, Section
101, Soluble Heavy Metals Content in Surface Coating Materials – ASTM F963-08
Section 4.3.5.2and Phthalates Content –
U.S. Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), Title I, Section
108 ; and the requirementsestablished
by the American toy industry which are the mostcomprehensive in the world, and are found in ASTM F963-96a, Standard
Consumer Safety Specification on Toy Safety.
Our books, games and
toys are designed, developed and manufactured with every child's safety in
mind.Before we ever go into production the
product is pre-tested, including all components and packaging to ensure their
safety prior to bulk production and final assembly. To further ensure the
safety of the finished product, samples are arbitrarily selected from the
production run by our own representatives at the factory.These in turn are packaged and couriered
directly to us in our Norwalk,
Connecticut offices where they are
then inspected to make sure they meet the original specifications.They are then sent on to an accredited lab where
they are subjected to final testing against the CPSC and ASTM standards.Furthermore, future production runs are
regularly retested to ensure continued compliance with our specifications and
safety requirements.
Here
at innovativeKids we are all parents too and it goes without saying that the
safety of everyone’s children is the number one priority for iKids. We are happy to discuss our policies and
procedures in greater depth should you have any questions.Thank you again for supporting our company.
