Production

CARSON produces and works with quality suppliers from Germany, Italy, England and other European countries, and Asia. An in-house procurement and development team in Hong Kong analyses the market and develops new products. At the same time, CARSON invests in their own engineers and tool forms in order to maintain a top level of quality.

Quality

Countless loyal customers and fans characterise the CARSON brand and its models. The robust and durable products undergo double quality control.

The ToyAward Teenager & Adults at the Spielwarenmesse 2018 was awarded to the in-house development of a remote-controlled 1:87 scale model.
