The implementation of the EU Electronic Toys Directive is approaching, and all E & E toys are not spared
The two effective dates of the new EU Hazardous Substances (RoHS2) Directive 2011/65 / EU for electrical and electronic (E & E) toys are approaching. The revised directive will cover all toys with E & E functions.
According to this part of the directive that came into effect on January 2, 2013, toys with a major E & E component must comply with RoHS2 restrictions. For toys with small E & E parts or in secondary positions (such as plush toys with singing function), they must comply with RoHS2 restrictions from July 22, 2019.
Electronic and electrical equipment in toys is defined by the European Union as "equipment that depends on current or electromagnetics to function properly". The new definition of "dependent" in RoHS2 includes toys that require current or electromagnetics to perform at least one predetermined function. In addition, RoHS2 also introduced the labeling requirements of the CE mark to comply with European electrical and electronic standards, while also complying with RoHS requirements.
The new law is a revision of the RoHS Directive, which was originally issued in 2003 to restrict lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls or polybrominated diphenyl ethers in certain types of electrical and electronic equipment and toys to prevent these bans The substance is discarded and potentially released into the environment. The limit for the above substances is 0.1%, and the limit for cadmium is 0.01%.
As the world's largest toy exporter, China's toy exports account for 70% of global trade, and the EU is the main destination for Chinese toy exports. After the new RoHS2 directive comes into effect, the cost of toys exported to the EU will rise sharply, and companies will need to invest in testing and testing equipment. In addition, investment in product packaging, materials, environmental protection, etc. will increase costs. Some enterprises estimate that the direct production costs of enterprises will increase by at least 15%. While this market impact will bring shocks to Chinese manufacturing companies, it will also put some pressure on local consumers.
In this regard, the inspection and quarantine department reminds relevant companies to thoroughly study the latest toy regulations and standards in developed countries such as the European Union, especially various regulations in major export destinations, such as: RoHS2 directive, etc .; establish a self-inspection and self-control system, and improve and perfect products Quality control capabilities, focusing on key product quality control points such as the first toy identification, high-risk raw materials and auxiliary materials; select green suppliers, establish a supplier qualification review system, and regularly inspect and screen to ensure that raw materials meet the standards; active Open up other emerging markets, such as the BRIC countries, the Mist countries, and ASEAN.
