Comprehensive Guide to EN 71-8 Activity Toys for Domestic Use Laboratory Testing Service

EN 71-8 Activity Toys for Domestic Use is a laboratory testing service provided by Eurolab, which ensures that toys and play equipment designed for domestic use meet the required safety standards. This service is governed by various international and national standards, including:

1. ISO 8124-2:2016: Safety of toys Part 2: Small parts Aspiration, ingestion, or eye irritation

2. EN 71:2018A1:2019: Safety of toys Requirements for safety

3. TSE (Turkish Standards Institution) EN 71: Turkish National Standard based on the European Unions harmonized standard for toy safety

These standards are developed and maintained by various organizations, including:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC)

  • Turkish Standards Institution (TSE)

    • The development of these standards is a continuous process, with new versions being published regularly to reflect changes in technology, science, and consumer needs.
