EN71 is an important testing standard for toy safety in the EU market. The main purpose of EN71 testing is to ensure that toys will not cause harm to children during use, including stabbings, cuts, swallowing small parts, etc. Children's water spray guns are required Do EU EN71 testing.
1. Determine testing requirements and standards
1. Clarify the product scope: Confirm that the children's water spray gun belongs to the toy category, and understand the applicability of the EN71 standard to it.
2. Select testing items: According to the EN71 standard, children's water spray guns usually need to undergo physical and mechanical performance testing (EN71-1), flammability testing (EN71-2) and chemical property testing (especially heavy metal migration in EN71-3 test).
2. Prepare test samples and data
1. Prepare samples: Prepare a sufficient number of children's water spray gun samples according to the requirements of the testing agency to ensure that the samples are representative.
2. Fill out the application form: Provide basic information about the product, such as name, model, manufacturer, expected age of use, etc.
3. Submit relevant documents: including product instructions, materials list, production process flow chart, etc., so that the testing agency can understand the details of the product.
3. Submit application and send samples
1. Submit testing application: Submit the completed application form and relevant documents to the selected testing agency.
2. Send samples: Send the prepared samples to the designated location according to the address and method provided by the testing agency.
4. Testing process
1. Sample receipt and confirmation: After receiving the sample, the testing agency will confirm and register the sample.
2. Test execution:
Physical and mechanical performance testing: including sharp point testing, sharp edge testing, small parts testing, pressure testing, bending testing, etc. to evaluate the mechanical strength and safety of toys.
Flammability test: Evaluate the flammability of toy materials to ensure they will not burn quickly or produce toxic fumes when exposed to a fire source.
Chemical property testing: Especially the heavy metal migration test, which detects whether toys contain excessive heavy metal elements to prevent them from migrating into children's bodies and causing harm to health.
3. Report preparation: The testing agency prepares a test report based on the test results, including test conclusions, test charts, analysis instructions, etc.
5. Obtain reports and certifications
1. Report review: The testing agency will submit the test report to the applicant for review, and sign for confirmation after confirming that it is correct.
2. Issuance of certificates (if applicable): For products that comply with EN71 standards, the testing agency may issue corresponding certificates of conformity or test reports. It should be noted that EN71 itself does not issue certificates directly, but uses test reports to prove that products comply with the standard. However, in some cases, the company may declare on its own that the product complies with the EN71 standard based on the test report, and affix the CE mark on the product (if the product also meets the requirements of other relevant directives).
