The GIM Advantage
GIM's team of inspectors, auditors and lab experts are specialized by industry to ensure your products meet all safety and performance standards for your destination market.
It can be difficult and expensive for a company that supplies toys to keep on top of all of the latest standards and requirements surrounding toy sales around the world, not to mention all of the fast changing inspection regimes that target new and different areas.
Your business has to be ready to respond at a moment’s notice as new health initiatives are announced, and to make sure that your products are free of the target substance or attribute. So how do you manage to stay ahead of the game without spending a fortune?
Thanks to the depth of expertise possessed by our inspectors and advisors in the toy and recreational items industry, we are able to offer a comprehensive range of inspection and quality control services no matter what your line of business.
As the list of regulations and health advice on different materials keeps growing, it's becoming harder and harder to keep up, but your ability to sell your products in markets around the world relies on your ability to digest and implement this information.
Not only will our experts use their knowledge to ensure that your products are compliant, but we'll also continue to update our knowledge to future proof your production line
Materials science is a fast-moving world, and the tastes of consumers are always changing.
Sometimes you'll need to know quickly whether your products contain a certain material or manufacturing technique that could harm consumers or the marketability of your products, and you need an answer fast. Our experts have access to an extensive range of lab testing equipment so that we can perform a wide variety of tests on your products, from flammability and sterility tests all the way to checking for specific compounds in the material, the composition of the coating and potential toxins in the packaging.
Not only will this allow you to prove you products' suitability for a range of markets, it will also allow you to respond to health concerns and new rules dynamically so you don't miss out on a sale.
Selling your products around the world means complying with a large and sometimes baffling range of regulations which can be a hamper to any organisation with a large reach, which is why our services can be vital for your company's expansion plans.
Our inspectors and experts are able to test your company's compliance against standards from all over the world and in a huge variety of toy sectors and sub-sectors, whether you're aiming for compliance with US toy standards & regulations,EN71 Safety standard standards & regulations or regulations from other continents.
Not only does compliance make your work possible in the near future, but our services can also help future proof your operations, allowing you to operate with agility on the global toy market.
Ensuring your products meet a range of international standards in advance means you can enter new markets immediately, without fear of being held back by the rules.
At Holam, we appreciate the work of GIM, thanks to the quality of their service and the flexibility of their reports, which fully meet our needs. The quality of their work is combined with their reports, which are always explicit and address all the specifics of our products. With GIM, the inspections are as if we were doing them ourselves.
GIM provides us with inspection reports for our clients from the jewelry industry, my products are mainly made of wood (displays, and boxes). I like to work with GIM for their efficiency, attention to details, and reliability in their inspection results.
After multiple problems in our book productions, we asked GIM to inspect each of our book productions in China. Their service and follow-up is excellent and we are now also working with them in Vietnam.
We are a company specializing in the distribution of gift products in France. GIM was able to meet the scope of our needs, both in terms of "sourced products" and in negotiations with Chinese suppliers to enable us to obtain reasonable quantities allowing us to expand our range of products. GIM was able to guide us in its research by monitoring the entire production line all the way to quality control. Their ability to listen, their service and their professionalism are qualities that we found in GIM.
