Natural rubber is tough and bouncy, and dog-toy brands use it as an alternative to synthetic plastics. Sri Lanka grows natural rubber, and its rubber moulding plants can make toys from a buyer’s design or develop one.

What can be made

• Chew toys and bones
• Bouncy balls in several sizes
• Hollow toys that hold food or treats
• Your own shape, with your logo moulded in

Tooling and samples

A new shape needs a mould, usually quoted separately and paid once. Samples are made for approval before production.

Safety

Brands usually test dog toys for harmful substances such as heavy metals and phthalates. Tell us the tests your market or retailer requires and they can be arranged on the production lot. We make no claims about dental or health benefits.

Private label

Retail packs can carry your brand. Send us your artwork, pack size and labelling requirements for your market, and we confirm packing options, minimum order and lead time with the quote. You remain responsible for the label claims made in your market.

What to tell us for a quote

• The product, grade or specification you need, and a reference sample if you have one
• Quantity per order and how often you buy
• Pack size, packaging and labelling
• Destination port and the Incoterm you prefer
• Documents your market requires, such as a certificate of origin, phytosanitary certificate or lab test reports

Packing and shipping

Orders are packed to your instruction and shipped by sea in a full or shared container, or by air for samples and small lots, quoted FOB Colombo, CFR or CIF to your port. Products from several Sri Lankan suppliers can share one container through our consolidation service.

How to get a price: tell us the quantity, your specification and your destination port. We quote FOB Colombo, CFR or CIF, with lead time and minimum order, and arrange samples before an order.
