Children's activity mat EU EN71 certification report
1、 EN71 certification core testing items (children's activity mats require special attention)
1. Physical and mechanical properties (EN71-1)
Small component testing: prevent decorations on the activity pad (such as cartoon buttons, bells) from falling off and causing suffocation
Thickness and cushioning: It is necessary to ensure the fall protection function (recommended thickness ≥ 10mm)
Edge sharpness: All seams/seams must pass a 1.2N tensile test
2. Combustion performance (EN71-2)
Flame retardancy of fabric: the delayed burning speed shall be ≤ 30mm/s (additional test is required if foam filler is included)
3. Chemical substance migration (EN71-3)
19 types of heavy metal detection: special attention should be paid to the limits of lead (≤ 13.5mg/kg), cadmium (≤ 1.3mg/kg), and other heavy metals
Phthalates: The total amount of 6 plasticizers including DEHP should be less than 0.1% (for PVC materials)
2、 Essential content for certification report
|Module | Specific Requirements | Example (Activity Mat)
|Product Description | Material (such as PE cotton+TPU film), Size, Applicable Age | 80 × 120cm, Suitable for 0-3 years old
|Test samples | Provide unused new products and complete packaging | Must include all color/pattern variations
|Testing Method | Reference EN71 Standard Terms | EN71-1 Chapter 5.3 (Small Component Testing)
|Result Comparison | Data and Limit Comparison Table | Lead Content: Detection Value 2.1mg/kg vs Limit Value 13.5mg/kg
|Compliance Statement | Manufacturer Signature and EU Representative Information | Must include the latest REACH Appendix XVII requirements of 2026
3、 Precautions for the new regulations in 2026
1. Update requirements
Add PFAS restrictions (for waterproof coatings)
Digital Product Passport (DPP) requires simultaneous upload of test reports
2. Common nonconformities
Excessive azo dyes in pattern ink
Folding structure poses a risk of pinch injury (tested according to EN71-1 Chapter 8)
3. Validity period management
The report needs to be updated every 5 years (with the next update no later than April 2031)
When there is a material change, retesting is required (such as changing the fabric supplier)
4、 Obtain certification process suggestions
1. Preliminary preparation
Confirm product classification: whether it belongs to toys (must comply with EN71) or child care products (may require additional compliance with EN1400)
2. Laboratory selection
Priority should be given to Dezewei Testing CNAS registration number: L8083
Request to provide CNAS/ILAC qualification documents
3. Time and cost
Regular testing cycle: 5-7 working days (urgent service requires an additional 30% fee)
Basic cost: approximately 1000-2000 (depending on the number of testing projects)
