When children's wigs are exported to the EU, EN71 testing in CE certification is a very important step. CE certification is Europe's mandatory market access system for goods, while EN71 is the EU's safety standard for children's toys and other children's products. For products such as children's wigs, their materials and design must comply with EN71 standards to ensure product safety.
1. Main contents of EN71 testing
EN71 testing mainly covers the following aspects:
Physical and mechanical properties: Test whether the edges, tips, protrusions, etc. of children's wigs are sharp and whether there are risks of suffocation, stabbing, etc.
Combustion properties: Test whether the materials of children's wigs are flammable and evaluate their fire risks.
Chemical properties: Detect whether there are harmful substances in children's wigs, such as heavy metals, formaldehyde, etc., and whether there are other potential chemical risks.
Labeling and instructions for use: Check whether the labeling and instructions for use of children's wigs are clear and standardized, and whether they can guide consumers to use and maintain the products correctly.
2. Specific standards for EN71 testing
In the EN71 standard, specific standards for children's wigs may include but are not limited to the following aspects:
EN 71-1: Physical and mechanical properties, including testing the edges, tips, protrusions, etc. of the product to ensure that there are no risks of suffocation, puncture, etc.
EN 71-2: Flame retardant performance, which evaluates the burning time and burning characteristics of a product to ensure its safety in unexpected situations such as fire.
EN 71-3: Migration of specific elements, detecting the presence of harmful substances in products, such as heavy metals, etc.
3. EN71 testing process
Collect product-related information: Collect design drawings, material descriptions, production processes and other information on children's wigs to ensure a full understanding of the product.
Choose a certification body: Choose a certification body authorized by the European Commission to ensure the authority and accuracy of test results.
Fill in the application form: Submit the application form to the certification agency. Product information, company information, etc. need to be filled in the form.
Arrange sample testing: The certification body will require the enterprise to provide a certain number of samples for testing based on the information in the application form.
Conduct testing: The certification agency conducts tests on samples in terms of mechanical properties, combustion properties, chemical composition, etc. to evaluate the safety performance of the product.
Evaluation and audit: Certification bodies evaluate and audit the test results to determine whether the product meets the EN71 standard.
Issuing a certificate: If the product meets the EN71 standard, the certification body will issue a certificate, allowing the product to be sold on the EU market.
