SB 448 Ohio Senate · 136th Legislature (2025-2026)

Regards health and safety requirements for stuffed toys

This bill amends state laws to establish clearer health and safety rules for the sale and manufacture of stuffed toys and bedding in Ohio. It requires businesses to register with the state, mandates that all such items be properly labeled and sanitized if secondhand, and prohibits the sale of falsely labeled products. The legislation also defines specific terms like "stuffed toy" and "secondhand" to ensure consistent enforcement. Additionally, it allows manufacturers to request exceptions from these rules if strict application is not necessary for public safety.
