Watercolor pens exported to the EU need to undergo EN71 testing. According to the EU market toy product standards, children's toys entering the EU market need to undergo EN71 testing. Watercolor pens are a type of children's toys and therefore require EN71 testing. Specific testing items include physical and mechanical testing, flammability testing, chemical performance testing, etc. to ensure that the watercolor pens comply with relevant standards and regulations and ensure the safety of children.



Watercolor pen EU EN71 testing project

1. The EU has corresponding standards for toy imports: EN71-1, EN71-2. EN71-3, EN71-6, EN71-9, EN71-10, EN71-11.

2. EN71-1 physical and mechanical performance testing, mainly including sharp edge, tension, pressure testing, etc. EN71-2 combustion performance test mainly includes the burning speed of toys, including plush toys, textile toys and head-mounted toys. EN71-3 specifies the maximum limits for migrating elements (antimony, arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, tin) in accessible parts or materials of toys (eight heavy metal migration tests).

3. The EU EN71 testing items for watercolor pens also include physical and mechanical testing, flammability testing, chemical performance testing, etc. Specific testing items include soluble heavy metal content testing (such as lead PB), cadmium Cd, chromium Cr, arsenic As, barium Ba, mercury Hq, selenium Se, antimony Sb, etc.), phthalate content, formaldehyde, plasticizers , Azo, etc.
