With which raw materials is PLAYMOBIL JUNIOR manufactured?
The colourful PLAYMOBIL JUNIOR playsets are made with over 90% bio-based plastic (ISCC PLUS certified). The plastic can be traced back to bio- based feedstock using the mass balance approach employed in the bio-economy to materials left over from food or paper production. With this, we are committed to significantly reduce the use of fossil resources.
After the successful use of mechanically recycled material in several play worlds, we are taking another step towards the use of certified/raw materials with the mass balance approach. This approach is employed to increase the proportion of renewable raw materials in our standard materials. This helps reduce the use of primarily fossil- based raw materials and overall lowers the carbon footprint of the plastic used.
Through a mass balance approach with corresponding certifications, we can ensure that over 90 percent of the bio-based raw materials (ISCC PLUS certified) are sourced and attributed to PLAYMOBIL JUNIOR toys. The bio- based raw materials are derived from waste and residues of the food and paper industries and are utilized as certified renewable feedstock at our suppliers, along with primarily fossil-based materials.
