Material Innovation for Toys: Recycled & Bio-Based Solutions with Unstoyppable




At Unstoyppable, sustainability is a guiding principle in every step of toy development. We focus on recycled and bio-based materials that meet safety, performance, and fun, helping brands reduce footprint without compromising quality.

Recycled Materials: Strength, Safety, and Responsibility

  • Post-consumer plastics: We explore high-quality recycled plastics with strong impact resistance and color stability for shells, housings, and components. Our approach prioritizes safety and durability while reducing virgin resin use.

  • Recycled metals and alloys: For moving parts, fasteners, and structural elements, recycled metal content delivers strength with lower environmental impact, while maintaining the precision and reliability required for play.

  • Recycled composites and fillers: Where appropriate, recycled content fillers can lower weight and material usage without sacrificing strength or safety.

  • Sustainable sourcing and certification: We work with partners who provide traceable, responsibly sourced recycled materials and aim for third-party certifications that support brand sustainability claims.


Bio-based Materials: Renewable Potential with Practical Performance

  • Bio-based polymers: We evaluate renewable-content resins that can deliver necessary toughness, flexibility, and safety for toys. These materials help reduce fossil-fuel dependence while maintaining colorfastness and performance.

  • Compatibility and safety: Bio-based options are tested to ensure they meet all toy safety standards and regulatory requirements, with attention to migration, toxicity, and long-term durability.

  • Blends and synergy: In many cases, bio-based polymers are blended with traditional polymers to balance performance, cost, and environmental benefits while preserving the user experience.


Design for Circularity and End-of-Life

  • Design for disassembly: Toys are engineered so components can be separated easily at end of life, enabling recycling or refurbishment.

  • Modularity and repairability: Replaceable parts extend lifespans and reduce waste, aligning with circular economy goals.

  • Take-back programs: We explore partnerships to reclaim materials and reintegrate them into production streams when feasible.

  • Life-cycle thinking: From start to finish, we assess environmental impact and seek opportunities to reduce energy use, water consumption, and material waste.


Quality, Compliance, and Transparency

  • Rigorous material testing: Recycled and bio-based materials are evaluated for safety, durability, and performance to ensure they meet or exceed standards expected by families and brands.

  • Regulatory alignment: Our processes align with toy safety regulations and environmental reporting requirements, helping brands maintain trust with consumers.

  • Transparent supplier relationships: We collaborate with suppliers who share our commitment to ethics, traceability, and continuous improvement.
