SGS, the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company, is delighted to announce a complimentary webinar, ‘Is Your Business Ready for the EU’s Revised Toy Standards?’, which takes place on September 26, 2024.
The EU introduced Standardization Requests to define work programs for setting topics and requests for standards revision. Discussions on toy standards were prolonged, with agreement finally reached between the EU Commission and the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Due to the delays, there is now a tight timescale for the revisions, with an October 25, 2025 deadline set for changes to all EU toy standards.
In this live webinar, the background to the Toy Standardization Request will be explored as well as the timescale revisions. The detail of proposed changes to EN 71 and EN 62115 will be covered; and the requirements for toys intended for use by children under 36 months or other toys intended to be placed in the mouth, included in EN 71 Parts 15 and 19, will also be discussed.
Expert presenters will cover the physical/mechanical safety changes, as well as flammability, chemical, electrical and microbiological safety standards. SGS solutions for preparing businesses for the upcoming changes will also be offered.
