Hape

Toys & Games

Hape is a German-founded toy manufacturer (est. 1986) that produces wooden and educational toys primarily in its own facilities in Ningbo, China. The company uses sustainable materials including FSC-certified wood and bamboo, and applies water-based nontoxic paints. Environmentally, Hape has committed to carbon neutrality in production by 2030 and plans to eliminate plastic packaging by the same year. However, the company discloses limited information about labor practices at its Chinese factory, offering only general certification references to ISO 45001 but no published wage standards, worker welfare policies, or independent audits of working conditions.
