Hi Just wondering about this. Do you think it would be safe to give small children/ babies toys that have been made out of polyester fabric we have dye subed ourselves?? I am guessing it would be as we do t shirts bibs etc. Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts or issues re this. Should be safe (I think) ..but I just want to be sure before I go ahead with my project.
Appreciate your thoughts/exeriences

We already have small objects/ products printed for children - bibs, small drinks bottles, babies clothing, tshirts etc. You'll need to be careful of the fabric meeting whatever safety standard you have in Aus - e.g. Fraying fabric could be a problem.

Be good to get the relevant safety documentation (MSDS/COSHH or Australian equivalents) for your inks so you know what is in them that could be hazardous.
