What kind of safety symbols should plastic toys bear in the UK?

Plastic Toys in the UK must bear the following safety symbols:

1. UKCA Mark: The UKCA mark is a replacement for the CE mark for products sold in the UK. It signifies that the toy complies with the relevant UK product safety regulations and standards.

2. Toy Safety Warning: There are different safety warning labels depending on the age of the child the toy is intended for.

- Toys for children under 36 months:

- Must be labeled with a warning against giving it to a child under the age of 36 months.

- Must indicate why it is not suitable.

- Toys for children aged 36 months and above must have a warning if:

- There are any risks not obvious to the user (for example, if it contains a cord that could be a strangulation hazard).

- It includes projectiles.

3. "CE" Marking: The "CE" marking signifies conformity with European health, safety, and environmental protection standards. While the UK is no longer part of the EU, toys produced or imported before January 1, 2023, may still carry the CE mark alongside the UKCA mark during a transitional period.

4. Contact Details: For toys subject to registration under UK toy regulations, the contact details of the responsible person or importer should be provided on the packaging or attached to the toy.
