Wooden toys are toys made of wood or wooden materials, usually with natural, environmentally friendly, lightweight, and easy to process characteristics. The EU EN71 certification for wooden toys is a series of safety performance tests conducted on wooden toys to ensure their safety and compliance with relevant regulations and standards.
This certification mainly involves testing in the following aspects:
Mechanical and Physical Performance: This section specifies the mechanical and physical performance requirements for toys, such as size, appearance, edges, and surface smoothness. The standard ensures that toys do not have sharp edges, clamping points, or moving parts that may cause injury.
Flammability: Part EN71-2 focuses on the flammability of toys, including their combustion performance in contact with open flames. The standard requires toys not to burn excessively and not to produce toxic gases during combustion.
Chemical properties: This section specifies the chemical requirements for the materials and colors used in toys to ensure that the chemicals in the toys meet safety standards. The standard limits the content of harmful substances in toys, such as heavy metals, organic solvents, preservatives, etc.
The process for EU EN71 testing and certification of wooden toys is generally as follows:
Provide product information and determine testing costs.
Fill out the testing application form and determine the testing age group.
Arrange samples for testing.
Provide a test report after testing.
