Always, we hold an attitude of Children Toy Safety First, Strict Quality Control and Long Term Partnership Maintaining, the greatest care possible are taken to make sure you and your children stay safe with our toys.
EN71 / ASTM / CPSIA / ISO8124 Testing & Age Suitability
All of our plush stuffed animal toys are tested for any age suitability. This means that unless a specific safety recommendation or suitability message, a plush stuffed animal toy is safe for all ages, from birth to 100 years old and beyond.
European toy safety testing standard
EN 71-1 Mechanical and physical properties
This part specifies the safety technical requirements and test methods for the mechanical and physical properties of toys of different age groups used from newborn infants to 14 years old children, as well as the requirements for packaging, marking and instructions for use.
EN 71-2 Combustion performance
This part specifies the types of flammable materials prohibited for all toys and the requirements for the combustion performance of some small fire source toys. The flammability requirements and test methods of five types of toy materials are specified in detail.
EN 71-3 Migration of specific elements
This part specifies the maximum limit and test method of transportable elements (antimony, arsenic, barium, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury, tin) in accessible parts or materials of toys.
EN 71-4 Experimental toys for chemistry and related activities
This part specifies the safety technical requirements for experimental toys for specific chemical and related activities.
EN 71-5 Chemical toys (except toys for chemical experiments)
This part specifies the safety technical requirements for other specific chemical toys except for chemical and related experimental toys.
EN 71-6 Label symbol for age warning
This part mainly determines the label symbol of toys – age warning, including the illustration and its meaning.
EN 71-7 Finger paint - Technical requirements and test methods
This part specifies the safety technical requirements and test methods for specific finger paint.
EN 71-8 Swing, slide and similar toys for indoor or outdoor use
This part specifies the safety technical requirements and test methods of swings, slides and similar toys for indoor or outdoor use in specific families, mainly in mechanical and physical aspects.
EN 71-9 General requirements for organic compounds
EN 71-10 Preparation and extraction of samples of organic compounds
EN 71-11 Methods of analysis of organic compounds
Requirements are put forward for the EN 71-9 standard of some organic chemical compounds migrated or contained in toys and toy materials. Products within the scope of the standard include toys designed for children under 3 years of age (because these toys may be chewed by children in the mouth), And products designed for older children (these products may come into contact with children’s mouth, skin or be inhaled by children.) EN 71-9 specifies the upper limit of listed organic compounds. The standards should be read together with EN 71-10 and EN 71-11 standards, because these two sets of standards focus on the preparation and extract samples and their respective analytical methods.
BS 5665 (British Standards Institution)
DIN EN 71 (German Standards Institution)
NF EN 71 (French Standards Institution)
These three standards are divided into three parts: mechanical and physical performance, combustion performance, and migration of specific elements. As long as they pass the requirements of EN 71 test, they meet the requirements of these three standards. The first and second parts are generally regarded as the overall test, and the third part is the same as EN 71-3.
EN 1122：2001 EU inspection standard for cadmium content in plastics
This part can be tested according to customer requirements.
EN 71-3 Requirements for chemical testing
Test section selection:
Laboratory samples for testing must be in sale condition or toys for sale condition. The test part must be removed from the accessible part of a separate toy sample, that is, the same material on the toy can be combined as a separate test part, but no other toy sample can be used. The test section is not allowed to contain more than one material or more than one color unless physical separation methods do not allow the formation of separated samples, such as spot dyeing, printed fabrics or due to limited weight. The test part of the material less than 10mg will not be tested. In order to ensure the accuracy of the test, if the sample weight is insufficient, please ask the customer to provide the raw materials of the test sample or provide several sets of samples.
Classification of the test section (9 categories):
The following transfers of elements of toy materials are included in the requirements of this section:
1、Paints, varnishes, nitrocelluloses, inks, polymer coatings and similar coatings;
2、Polymeric materials and similar materials, including laminated materials reinforced with or without textiles, but excluding other textiles;
3、Paper and cardboard;
4、Textiles, whether natural or synthetic;
5、Glass/Ceramic/Metallic materials: These materials do not need to be tested if they are completely covered by a coating and are determined to be inaccessible under EN 71-If the material is partially covered by a coating and the surface is still accessible, remove the coating first and test the toy and parts.
6、Other materials, whether heavily coloured or not (e.g. wood, fiberboard, cardboard, bone and leather);
7、Materials for leaving traces (such as graphite in pencils and liquid ink in pens);
8、Soft modeling materials, including modeling clay and gel;
9、Paints, including finger paint paints, varnishes, nitro paints, glazes and similar materials in solid or liquid form on toys.
