Bio DoUgh FAQs
What's the minimum age to use Bio Dough?
Bio DoUgh playdough is recommended for children aged 2 years and over with adult supervision. Accessories may have different age guidance; always follow the product packaging.
What is Bio Dough made of?
The main ingredients are wheat, salt, oil, water, flavours and food colouring. The ingredients are food-grade, but Bio DoUgh is a toy rather than food.
Is Bio DoUgh gluten-free?
No. Bio DoUgh contains wheat and is not gluten-free. Do not use it if your child has a wheat allergy or a gluten-related medical restriction; follow advice from your health professional.
What makes Bio DoUgh different from homemade playdough?
Bio DoUgh began as a homemade family recipe and was refined over a year of study, research and testing. It is made in-house in Australia with a soft, malleable texture and can be refreshed with a few drops of water if clean dough starts to dry.
Is it safe for my kid to eat it?
No. Bio DoUgh is a toy, not food. It is made with food-grade ingredients but should not be tasted or eaten. It contains wheat. Use with adult supervision and follow the age guidance shown on each product.
What is the best way to preserve Bio Dough once open?
Store each colour in an airtight container or zip-lock bag in a cool, dry place. Our lockable storage containers can also help keep colours separate.
Can dried Bio DoUgh be refreshed?
Yes. If clean dough starts to dry, add a few drops of water and knead it through. Add only a little water at a time.
How can we reduce unwanted colour mixing?
Keep warm colours together, cool colours together, and separate strongly contrasting colours. White and black can be used with either group, but mixed colours will naturally change over time.
How long does delivery take?
Orders are sent from Sydney and generally arrive within 1–5 working days, depending on location. Express delivery generally takes 1–2 working days. See our Shipping & Returns page for current details.
What's the shelf life of Bio Dough?
Bio Dough can last up to 2 years in its original packaging.
How long does it last once open?
It is best to dispose of Bio Dough after 3 months from opening to avoid cross contamination.
