Plastic is by far the most commonly used material for toys. However, the widespread criticism of plastics has not left the industry unscathed. Manufacturers such as Lego or Mattel have announced that in future they will only use alternative materials that do not come from fossil raw material sources.
Recyclability, the use of recycled or renewable raw materials, as well as significantly lower CO2 emissions are important new development goals. After the first four bio!TOY conferences in 2019, 2021, 2023 and 2925 which were successful with more than 100 participants, manufacturers of sustainable plastics and toys will again exchange news and experiences from 9th to 10th of March 2027. The meeting in Nuremberg (hybrid, i.e. on-site and online) is again supported by important industry platforms and interest groups (such as DVSI, Spielwarenmesse, Agency for Renewable resources FNR).
