Rubberwood is a by-product of latex production so the use of this wood is helping to reduce waste. The production of latex becomes uneconomical once the trees have reached the grand age of about 25 years and traditionally were felled and burned, but under an Indonesian legal wood incentive, that timber can be used and turned into beautiful toys.

Mentari and sister brand Tender Leaf is committed to giving back to the environment and is proud to have partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects which are recognised as one of the most effective re-forestation projects on the planet. Their work reduces extreme poverty and restores healthy forests by employing local villagers to plant millions of trees every year. By focusing on areas of high unemployment they have created 3,500 jobs in some of the hardest hit places in the world: Madagascar, Nepal, Haiti, Indonesia and Mozambique.

Mentari strives to maintain ethically high standards throughout its organisation. In addition, regular audits take place in all its factories, by the BSCI.

All Mentari's producers have been awarded the SMETA Best Practice Guidance and SMETA Measurement Criteria seal of approval and are members of the SEDEX, Global Ethical Trade organisation.

Wooden toys last for generations so when they are no longer played with they can be passed to a younger friend or family member for a new world of fun and development.
