Publish Time: 2024-06-13
PU Foam Toys are loved by parents and children for their soft, safe and durable properties. However, in order to extend the life of these toys and maintain their good performance and appearance, daily care and maintenance are essential. Here are some practical tips for maintaining PU Foam Toys.
1. Avoid exposure to sunlight and high temperature environment
PU Foam Toys are sensitive to light and high temperature. Long-term exposure to sunlight or high temperature environment may cause the material to age, harden or even crack. Therefore, try to store the toys in a cool and dry place, avoid direct sunlight and close to heat sources such as radiators and ovens.
2. Regular cleaning
Keeping PU Foam Toys clean can not only extend its life, but also protect the health of children. When cleaning, it is recommended to use warm water and neutral detergent to gently wipe the surface, and do not use strong acid or strong alkaline detergent to avoid damaging the material. After cleaning, wipe dry with a clean towel and avoid long-term storage in a wet state to prevent mold.
3. Prevent scratches from sharp objects
Although PU foam is soft, it is relatively easy to be scratched or punctured by sharp objects. When children are playing, they should be careful not to mix toys with sharp objects (such as scissors, knives, etc.). If small cracks appear, they can be repaired with special polyurethane repair glue to prevent the cracks from expanding.
4. Regular inspection
Regularly check the overall condition of PU Foam Toys, especially the seams and edges, and promptly detect and deal with any potential problems. If obvious wear, cracks or deformation are found on the surface of the toy, consider replacing it with a new one to ensure the safety of the child.
5. Avoid excessive squeezing and pulling
Although PU Foam Toys have a certain degree of elasticity, excessive squeezing and pulling will accelerate its aging and deformation. Therefore, avoid applying excessive pressure during use, teach children to use toys correctly, and do not use excessive force.
6. Reasonable storage
When toys are not in use, they should be stored in a dry and ventilated environment. It is best to store different types of toys separately to avoid squeezing and friction with each other. If not used for a long time, the toys can be placed in a sealed bag to prevent dust and moisture from invading.
7. Avoid contact with chemicals
PU Foam Toys should be kept away from chemicals such as paints, solvents, etc. These chemicals may cause the degradation and deterioration of PU materials, affecting the safety and durability of toys.
The simple and effective maintenance methods above can greatly extend the service life of PU Foam Toys while maintaining their beauty and functionality. Doing a good job of daily maintenance can not only allow children to enjoy the fun brought by toys for a long time, but also ensure their safety and health during play.
