Green Toys is an eco-friendly toy brand that is based and manufactured in California. Green Toys are made from 100% recycled plastic. In fact, recycled milk jugs are the primary ingredient. Every pound of milk jugs used to make Green Toys saves enough energy equivalent to power 3,000 AAA batteries, a TV for 3 weeks and a laptop for 1 month. Food-safe, mineral-based coloring is used so that the toys are safe for teething. Even the packaging is eco-friendly. Packaging is 100% recyclable cardboard with no additives using soy ink. Soy ink biodegrades 4x's faster than petroleum-based ink. Talk about zero waste!
