When Christmas dolls are sold in the EU market, they need to undergo EN71 testing to ensure that they comply with European toy safety standards. The following is the detailed content and format of the EU EN71 testing of Christmas puppets:
1. Overview of EN71 testing
EN71 is the European toy safety standard, designed to ensure that toys sold on the European market meet safety requirements. The EN71 standard includes multiple parts, covering testing of physical properties, flammability, chemical properties, heavy metal content, etc.
2. Christmas puppet EN71 testing content
1. Physical and mechanical performance testing
Sharp point test: Make sure there are no overly sharp edges or points on the Christmas doll that could cause injury to children.
Sharp edge test: Test whether the edges of the Christmas doll are sharp to prevent cuts or scratches.
Small parts test: Test whether the parts of the Christmas doll are easy to fall off or break to prevent children from swallowing or choking.
Pressure test: Test whether the pressure exerted on children by the Christmas doll during normal use is within a safe range.
Bending test, impact test, seam tension test, tension test, torsion test, etc.: simulate various situations during children's use to evaluate the durability and safety of the Christmas puppets.
2. Flammability test
Evaluate the burning speed and characteristics of Christmas puppet materials to ensure they are less likely to catch fire and reduce the risk of fire.
3. Chemical property testing
Analyze whether Christmas dolls contain banned chemicals, such as phthalates, lead, cadmium, etc.
Detect the release of hazardous substances to ensure chemical safety.
4. Heavy metal content test
Use professional equipment to detect the heavy metal content in the Christmas dolls to ensure that they do not exceed safety limits.
3. Test standards and requirements
1. EN71-1: Specifies the safety technical requirements for the mechanical and physical properties of toys for different age groups from newborn babies to 14-year-old children. It also specifies requirements for packaging, labeling and instructions for use.
2. EN71-2: It is required that the materials and structures of toys should have sufficient fire resistance under certain fire sources to avoid fire accidents.
3. Other EN71 series standards: also cover testing requirements for chemical properties, marking durability, acoustic performance, etc.
