Comprehensive Guide to EN 71-27 Testing of Toy Surface Coatings Laboratory Testing Service

EN 71-27 Testing of Toy Surface Coatings is a laboratory testing service provided by Eurolab, which evaluates the safety and compliance of toy surface coatings with international standards. This comprehensive guide will explore the relevant standards, legal framework, and standard development organizations governing this specific test.

International Standards

The European Unions EN 71 standard (Safety Assessment for Childrens Products) is a cornerstone regulation for childrens product safety. The standard encompasses various aspects, including physical and chemical properties, flammability, and other potential hazards. EN 71-27 specifically addresses the surface coatings of toys, evaluating their compliance with these regulations.

National Standards

In addition to international standards, national standards apply in specific countries or regions. For example:

  • ASTM F963 (Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Toy Safety) is a United States standard for toy safety.

  • TSE (Türk Standardı Enstitüsü) is the Turkish Standards Institution, responsible for developing and implementing standards within Turkey.

    • International Organizations

    Several organizations contribute to the development of standards:

    1. ISO (International Organization for Standardization): A global federation of national standards bodies that develop international standards.
