Toys are close partners in children's growth, and their quality and safety are directly related to children's physical and mental health, so toy testing is crucial.
The main purpose of the toy testing is to ensure the safety of children. It is difficult for children to detect potential risks when they are playing. For example, small parts of toys are easy to fall off and be suffocated by mistake, sharp corners may scratch the skin, and toxic and harmful chemicals will affect physical development. Test for toy durability and stability to withstand frequent use.
Common toy testing standards are as follows:
- GB 6675: China's National Toy Safety Technical Specification, covering mechanical and physical properties, flammable properties, chemical properties and other tests. Among them, the mechanical and physical performance inspection edge, tip safety and small parts fall off, the chemical properties focus on the content of lead, mercury and other harmful substances.
- EN 71: European Union toy safety standard, widely used, physical and mechanical properties, combustion properties, toxic substances migration and other test parts. A toxic substance transfer test simulates a child's exposure scenario to detect whether harmful substances will migrate to the child's mouth.
- ASTM F963: The toy safety standards set by the American Association of Materials and Tests have made detailed provisions on safety and physical properties, requiring that toys should not harm children under normal and foreseeable abuse circumstances, such as electrical safety tests for electric toys.
Toy testing is the key to ensure the safety of children and the quality of toys. Strictly following the standards can reduce the safety risks. With the increase of attention to children's safety, the toy testing standards and technologies will be constantly improved to create a safer toy environment for children.
