Is lead in toys a financial, or cost, issue? why have we not seen the toy industry monitor and do something about the lead problem, even though we have known about it for more than 30 years?

The issue of having lead in toys is more of a cost issue for factories or manufacturers because paint that has lead normally sells for a third of the cost with paint that has low levels of lead that is why most of them opt for paint with lead especially for Chinese toy manufacturers.


 The reason why the issue of lead in toys has not been tackled is because almost all paints have lead in them. The only difference is some paints have higher levels while some low levels this therefore means that almost all stakeholders in the toy industry are responsible and know what is going on.
