Lead-Free Games

The exact products shown [OR similar products from the same brand] have been repeatedly tested by Lead Safe Mama, LLC (using XRF technology) and have been consistently found to be Lead-free. In our opinion the companies featured on these pages have behaved ethically and responsibly when it comes to toxicant concerns and considerations in manufacturing.

Games Note:

In general Lead Safe Mama, LLC doesn’t have a concern for Lead with any modern (currently being sold) games manufactured by known reputable brands (Hasbro, Mattel, Pressman, Parker Brothers, etc.)
While vintage games (from 2011 or earlier) may have…
- Leaded metal pieces…
- or Lead-painted metal pieces (2006 example), or
- Leaded plastic pieces (2002 example), or
- Leaded glass marbles (2020 example), or
- Lead-painted wood pieces (1992 example), or
- Leaded vinyl components (1981 example) and even
- Leaded printed inks on paper and cardboard elements (1962 example),
…new (recently manufactured, post-2011) games from known (mainstream, popular, widely sold) manufacturers have consistently tested Lead free when tested using XRF technology.
