Quality Assurance: Our Promise to You
With over 45 years of experience within the industry we have seen
many changes and updates to toy safety over the years, which as a
company we take very seriously.
We pride ourselves in supplying good quality, innovative and safe products.
We want children and adults alike to have fun and enjoy our products. They
should not have to consider safety when it comes to toys, therefore our
dedicated compliance team are here to take that worry away. At TOBAR,
products go through a long assessment and testing process and are not
launched until we are sure that they are safe.
As part of our standard operating policy, our team evaluates each product to
identify any possible hazards or associated risks at the point of selection, and
then during the product’s development stages. Without this total assurance,
we would not be placing these items onto the market. Our toys are tested

technical ability and expert opinion to ensure that our toys are safe. Where
toy products are marked with CE, it indicates compliance with the Toy Safety
Directive, and we compile European Declarations of Conformity (DOC) for each
product.

To assist in helping customers, we are able to provide the following
documents:
• Bill of Materials – shows a full list of component materials that our
products are made from.
• Test Reports – tests against European standards carried out by
accredited thirty-party laboratories.
• EC Declarations of Conformity – the product’s official legal document
that states applicable safety directives to which the product complies.
We work closely with our test houses and have a Primary Authority
arrangement with Norfolk Trading Standards, which means we are always
aware of any impending changes to legislation and regulations. This allows us
to plan for these amendments up to 18 months in advance.
Age recommendations feature on our products to assist customers in making
informed decisions. The age guidance we provide is based on regulations,
international guidelines and expert advice on children’s behavioural, motor
and cognitive development.
