5 roles of ICTI standards for toy packaging manufacturing company
ICTI (International Council of Toy Industries) is an international standard applicable to the toy manufacturing industry. Specifically, this certification provides standard ethical production criteria for supply chain members to apply and maintain.
Besides, ICTI is an essential standard for toy packaging manufacturing companies thanks to its practical and influential role and benefits. Let's learn about the "pluses" that ICTI certification can bring to the paper packaging industry.
Demonstrate responsibility and commitment to customers
Overall assessment, the primary purpose of ICTI standards is to ensure that toy production stages meet international standards and are safe and sustainable. Therefore, a toy packaging company implementing ICTI also shows responsibility and commitment to customers and consumers.
More specifically, that commitment revolves around issues such as:
-
Comply with domestic and international business ethics
-
No discrimination, race, religion, gender, etc
-
Freedom and equality
-
Environmental and chemical safety
-
Labor safety
-
Transparency, legality, and fairness regarding wages and working hours
Build trust with customers
By complying with ICTI standards, suppliers demonstrate efforts to control and ensure safety in the mass production of toy packaging. Since then, customers have had strong confidence in allowing children to access paper products and packaging.
Besides, the manufacturer helps customers save time and feel secure when choosing and using toy products that meet international standards.
Ensuring a safe and sustainable production environment
One of ICTI's goals is to provide common goals for all supply chain members. Therefore, by complying with the standard, the toy manufacturing environment is guaranteed to be fair, safe, and stable.
This will bring peace of mind to consumers, especially children. Besides, creating favorable conditions for workers increases and promotes productivity in packaging production.
Tools to support sustainability strategies
The next role ICTI standards can play is to become a valuable support tool to help businesses focus on reviewing processes and factories to implement sustainable paper packaging production strategies.
In particular, for businesses implementing ESG, ICTI standards will be a preliminary way to check and provide highly applicable improvement methods, bringing practical results.

Facilitate access and growth in international markets

In addition, ICTI compliance is an opportunity for toy packaging manufacturers to update and learn about common requirements and standards continuously. From there, building an appropriate and effective international market access strategy is possible.
