What items need to be tested for silicone teething rings EN71?
Silicone teether EN71 test items
The EN71 test is mainly aimed at assessing the safety of toys. As a type of toy, silicone teethers need to undergo the following key test items: 1. EN71-1: Physical and mechanical properties test This test item covers drop tests, small parts tests, sharp edge tests, tensile strength tests, ear, nose, and eye pull tests, pressure tests, torque tests, seam tests, etc., to ensure that silicone teethers will not cause harm to infants and young children under normal and abusive use. 2. EN71-2: Combustibility test This test specifies the types of flammable materials that are prohibited, requiring the tested materials to have a combustion rate that does not exceed the specified limits. For silicone teethers, it is necessary to ensure that their material is non-flammable or has an extremely low combustion rate to reduce the risk of fires. 3. EN71-3: Migration test for specific elements (eight major heavy metals test) This test simulates the potential leaching of heavy metals from toy materials in contact with children's gastric juices and sets maximum limits. Silicone teethers must pass this test to ensure that they do not contain excessive heavy metals, safeguarding the health of infants and young children.
