The new EU Toy Safety Directive, approved in April 2025, introduces stricter limits on the content of hazardous substances such as phthalates, bisphenol A and heavy metals in children’s products. The aim is to better protect children’s health and strengthen consumer confidence in the European toy market

According to organisations specialising in protection against hazardous substances, the new rules represent a significant step forward in protecting children’s health. The Directive also introduces an obligation for manufacturers to provide detailed information on the composition of toys and to ensure their traceability in the supply chain

The new rules are expected to enter into force in 2026, and Member States will be required to implement them in their national legislation.
