Our Factory

Our wooden toy factory is in Yunhe, Lishui, Zhejiang, China, where cutting, shaping, painting, assembly, inspection and export packing all happen in one 6,000 m2 plant. This page is the plant itself: what is in it, how a wooden toy is made here, and how quality is controlled before goods are packed.

Where the factory is

Our plant sits at 161 Zhongshan West Road, Yunhe, Lishui, Zhejiang, China. Yunhe is a small county with an unusual concentration of wooden toy production, which means the skilled labour, the wood supply and the sub-suppliers for hardware and packaging are all in one place.

That matters commercially: when a buyer asks for a change late in a production run, the parts and the people needed to make it happen are minutes away, not on another continent.

The company background, registration details and business licence behind this plant are published on our about page.

What the plant contains

The factory is a 6,000 m2 standardised production plant staffed by a team of 80, built around two automatic lines — woodworking and painting — with the finishing, assembly, inspection and packing stations arranged around them.

• Woodworking. Cutting, shaping and edge rounding, so parts are consistent from the first unit to the last.
• Painting. An automatic painting line using eco-friendly water-based paint that is formulated for EN71-3 migration limits.
• Assembly. Sub-assembly of moving parts, wheels, hardware and fixings.
• Inspection. In-line checks plus a final check against the approved pre-production sample.
• Packing. Export cartons, or retail-ready packaging for private-label orders.

We have manufactured wooden toys since 2007, and the plant is staffed by a team of 80 across woodworking, painting, assembly, inspection and packing.

Using automatic lines rather than hand-only production is what makes repeat orders repeatable: the second shipment looks like the first one.

Wooden toy factory in China: plant facts

Buyers who want a structured visit can work from our 12-point wooden toy factory audit checklist (PDF): it lists the records to ask for, how to score each point, and what to do about a gap.

How a wooden toy is made here

1. Material selection. Wood is chosen for the product — species, grain, moisture content and thickness — because the wrong blank shows up as warping or cracking after painting.
2. Cutting and shaping. Components are cut and shaped to the drawing, with edge rounding on the parts a child will handle.
3. Sanding. Surfaces and edges are finished before any paint is applied.
4. Painting and drying. Colour is applied on the automatic line, then dried and checked for coverage and adhesion.
5. Assembly. Parts, wheels, fixings and printed components are assembled and function-checked.
6. Inspection and packing. Finished goods are checked against the approved sample, then packed and marked for shipment.

The full sequence, with the checkpoints where defective parts are rejected, is set out stage by stage in how wooden toys are made, and the sanding rounds in more detail in wooden toy sanding. Buyers checking the timber side of a European order can start with does EUDR apply to wooden toys, which works through the headings that are in scope and the ones that are not.

Video: inside the plant

Four short clips from the production floor — cutting, inspection and packing, polishing, and the finished goods before they leave. Play one and it opens in the browser; nothing downloads until you press play.

Quality control

Quality is checked at three points rather than once at the end: incoming material, in-line during production, and a final inspection against the approved sample before packing. Because we produce to EN71 (EU) and ASTM F963 (US) requirements, the checks cover the physical and mechanical points that testing laboratories look at — small parts, sharp edges, surface finish and paint adhesion.

Third-party inspection before shipment can be arranged on request if your compliance team requires it.

Visiting the factory

Buyers are welcome to visit. Send us your travel dates and we will arrange the visit and, if useful, a run through the production lines for the items you are considering. If travelling is not practical, we can arrange a live video tour instead — a walk through the plant on a call is usually enough to settle the questions a catalogue photo cannot answer.
