FAQ - fischerTiP

What is the creative material fischerTiP made of?

Colorful fischerTiPs are made from potato starch and are dyed using food coloring. The potato starch is produced on domestic farms and is 100 percent biodegradable.

Are fischerTiPs toxic?

The fischerTiP creative material is completely non-toxic, even if your child puts it in its mouth or swallows it.

Our fischerTiPs have “shrunk,” even though we stored them in the original bucket. What happened?

fischerTiPs should not come into contact with moisture if you’re not crafting with them. If the moist sponge is left in the bucket or in the box, the fischerTiPs inside will dissolve since they are made from potato starch. As a result, the contents of the bucket or the box will “shrink.” Therefore, it is very important not to leave the sponge in the bucket after use, but rather to dry it out completely.

What material are fischerTiP tools made from?

The tools were produced from resource-saving bioplastics. These bioplastics are made from sustainable, renewable raw materials that are biodegradable. This helps us protect the environment and stay true to our high commitment to sustainability.
