Canada SOR/2011-17 is Canada's toy safety standard, covering the basic safety requirements for toys, including materials, design, manufacturing, labeling and packaging. According to this standard, testing items mainly include:
1. Physical and mechanical properties: Test whether the structure and components of the toy are stable, there are no small parts that can easily fall off, and whether the edges and corners are rounded to prevent scratches or punctures to infants and young children. Stability testing is also included to ensure the toy will not tip or tip over during use.
2. Flammability: To ensure that toys are not flammable under normal use conditions and prevent fire and other injuries, this usually involves testing the flammability of toy materials.
3. Chemical properties: Test all materials and coatings used in the toy manufacturing process to see if they contain chemicals harmful to the human body, such as heavy metals, phthalates, etc., to ensure that the toys will not cause chemical hazards to children.
4. Electrical injury: If the toy contains electrical parts, its electrical safety performance will be tested to ensure that it will not cause injuries such as electric shock.
5. Small parts and sharp edges test: Check whether toys have small parts and sharp edges to prevent children from swallowing or being injured.
In addition, the SOR/2011-17 standard also includes requirements for packaging, especially if the product is packaged in soft film plastic bags, which must meet specific thickness and warning labeling requirements to avoid the risk of suffocation for children. For toys for children 3 years of age or younger, no small parts may fall off, unless the part consists entirely of soft textile fiber material. The standards also include noise limits, stipulating that the noise of toys in children's use locations must not exceed 100 decibels.
The testing process usually includes selecting a certification agency, preparing samples and materials, submitting applications and samples, conducting testing and evaluation, issuing test reports and certificates, and ultimately achieving market access.
