This diagram illustrates the toy manufacturing supply chain from raw materials to end consumers. It includes specific material suppliers relevant to the toy industry (plastic, metal, wood), as well as key support functions like design, quality control, and regulatory compliance. The circular economy elements show how discarded toys can be recycled or refurbished.
