Cloth toys exported to the EU also need to undergo EN71 testing. EN71 is the regulatory standard for toy products in the EU market. It is a safety standard for toys and other personal entertainment and leisure products used by children under 14 years old. According to the EU market toy product standards, children's toys entering the EU market need to undergo EN 71 testing.



EU EN71 testing items for cloth toys:

1. Physical performance testing: including appearance testing such as size, weight, color, and pattern, as well as mechanical performance testing such as tension, compression, and bending.

2. Flame retardant performance test: Test the flame retardant performance of cloth toys to evaluate their fire safety performance.

3. Chemical performance testing: Test the chemical substances contained in cloth toys, such as heavy metals, plasticizers, etc., to ensure that they comply with EU environmental standards.

4. Hazardous substance detection: Test the harmful substances that may exist in cloth toys, such as formaldehyde, lead, etc., to ensure that they comply with EU safety standards.



EU EN71 testing process for cloth toys:

1. Collect product information: Provide detailed information about cloth toys, including material, color, size, weight, etc. This information will be used to determine testing fees and testing items.

2. Fill in the test application form: Fill in the test application form based on the collected product information, including the age group for testing (such as under three years old or all ages), etc.

3. Arrange sample testing: According to the information in the test application form, prepare a certain number of samples for testing. The test content includes physical performance testing, flame retardant performance testing, chemical performance testing and hazardous substance detection, etc.

4. Perform testing: Send samples to certification laboratories for testing. During the testing process, the samples are subjected to various performance tests and the chemicals and harmful substances contained in them are detected.

5. Compile and issue test reports: The certification laboratory prepares test reports based on the test results and issues them to the product manufacturer. The test report will detail the test results and conclusions, as well as suggestions for improvement.

6. Improve the product: Based on the recommendations in the test report, make corresponding improvements to the product to ensure that it meets the EU's safety standards and quality requirements.
