Regarding the AS/NZS 8124 certification test items for riding toys, combined with the regulatory requirements and industry specifications of Australia and New Zealand, the following core test contents are organized:
I. Core test items
1. Mechanical and physical performance test (AS/NZS 8124.1)
- Stability and load-bearing test: evaluate the anti-overturning ability of toys under normal use and overload conditions, such as the base stability of scooters and tricycles.
- Structural safety:
- Sharp edge and point test (to prevent scratches or punctures);
- Protruding parts inspection (such as the firmness of handles and brackets).
- Abuse test: simulate the possible improper use scenarios of children, including drop test (free fall from a height of 1 meter), overturn test, and torque test (check the torque resistance of connectors).
- Special function test:
- Speed limit of electric riding toys (such as the maximum speed of electric scooters ≤6km/h);
- Braking performance test (toy bicycles must have effective braking devices).
2. Flammability test (AS/NZS 8124.2)
- Flame retardancy assessment for materials that come into contact with fire sources (such as seat cushions and plastic shells), requiring a burning speed of ≤30mm/s.
3. Chemical migration test (AS/NZS 8124.3)
- Detect the dissolution of 8 heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, etc.) in accessible materials, with limit requirements: lead ≤90ppm, cadmium ≤75ppm.
4. Electrical safety test (if applicable)
- Electric ride-on toys must comply with AS/NZS 62115 standards, including insulation performance and child-proof design of battery boxes (tools are required to open).
II. Additional requirements
1. Labels and instructions
- Applicable age (such as over 3 years old), safety warnings (such as "adult supervision required"), and instructions for use (assembly guide, maintenance methods) must be marked.
2. Packaging and design
- Folding structures must pass 7,000 switch tests (such as foldable scooters);
- Toys containing batteries must ensure that the battery compartment cannot be opened by children with bare hands.
III. Certification process and cycle
1. Process: Send samples → fill in application form → laboratory test → issue report → review and issue certificate.
2. Cycle: Normally 5-7 working days, which can be shortened to 3-5 days for expedited service.
Operational advice: Confirm in advance whether the product has electric functions, and prepare 50g material samples and technical drawings to speed up the testing process. For more testing details, please refer to the AS/NZS 8124.1-2023 standard document.
