*What is ICTI?
The International Council of Toys Industry (ICTI) is an association of 20 nations' toy associations. One of ICTI's mandates is to ensure that toys are produced in safe and humane environments. In order to achieve this, it developed for single ethical standard, called The Code of Business Practices, to be adopted by factories.
ICTI certificates are awarded to factories which have successfully completed the ICTI certification audit, demonstrating compliance with the Code's provisions. ICTI certification concentrates largely on factories in China, where 80% of the toys manufactured there are destined for sale in the West.
