Rooted in Discovery & Sustainability
Founded in 2014, GreenSprout Toys Ltd. began as a kitchen-table idea by product-designer Oliver Marshall. His vision was simple: pair inspiring play with responsible production. A decade later, our 3-storey solar-powered facility in Ancoats ships learning kits to 22 countries while keeping our carbon footprint ultra-low.
Every toy starts life as an FSC®-certified plank, is coloured with vegetable-based inks, and reaches your doorstep in recycled cardboard printed with algae pigment. Parents trust our ISO 9001 processes; children love the colourful adventures inside every box.

Featured Learning Kits
From Concept to Classroom
1. Human-Centred Design
Our designers collaborate with child psychologists to ensure developmental appropriateness.
2. Precision Manufacturing
CNC machining and laser engraving create exact tolerances while minimising material waste (<3%).
3. Triple-Tier Safety Testing
Internal lab, third-party UKAS lab tests and batch-level audits guarantee UKCA & CE compliance.
4. Compliance Consulting
We assist retailers with documentation packs, risk assessments and EU import filings.
