About Playwrite

A Tradition of Success

Burley Slanted viewBurley Distribution CentreThe Playwrite Group Plc is built on the solid success of its 19th Century foundations.We began back in the 1880's with the Oppenheimer and Cornelius toy and stationery businesses, and over the succeeding 125 years we have developed our expertise in finding and creating worthwhile products. Now that experience is allied to modern packaging and logistics, and from our Distribution Centre at Burley in Wharfedale, Yorkshire, we deliver over the whole of the UK and we export to Europe and beyond.

Toys that Children Choose

Quality and Value

NEC Spring Fair 2008 FrontageBirmingham Spring Fair 2010Playwrite has a long established reputation for Quality and Service, winning National awards in 3 successive years, and a plaque to commemorate 60 years of support for the Harrogate Toy Fair.

Playwrite is proud to be a founder member of TOYCRED. This is the "Blue Chip" safety accreditation standard for the toy industry, and is your assurance that all necessary steps are taken to ensure that the products we place on the market are safe.

Not one of our products is advertised on TV! Experience shows that our customers can get a far better return from any of our products than from the risky, over-hyped and TV advertised products, which we have all seen rise and then fall into obscurity.

Recycling Information

We have to use packaging. It's the only way we can be sure your product is protected before you buy it, but because we take our environmental responsibility very seriously, we are always looking at ways to improve the materials we use. We use cardboard for most packaging purposes across our entire range., rather than the 100% plastic packaging used by our competitors. It's also why we ensure that nearly all our packaging is 100% recyclable.The same reasoning dictates that all our wooden toys are made from fast growing softwoods, rather than precious hardwood, and wherever practicable we use recycled plastic.

Into the Future

We are constantly searching for and introducing New Products to fulfil our aim of providing Quality and Value. We enable our customers to get a decent return on their money. This is what has created the loyalty of our customers, the real strength of our company.
