| Stricter Requirement on Selling Toy in US |
| Author: Post Date: 2008-05-12 |
Toy Industry Association (US) and American National Standards Institute (ANSI) jointed to announce a proposal for a new toy testing and safety verification system for toys sold in the U.S. market. Key elements of the program include procedures for design hazard analysis, auditing manufacturing process controls, and product safety testing.
The program will be published by ANSI on Friday, February 22, 2008, for a one-month period of public review and comment. Following the public comment period, a final program proposal will be presented to the TIA Board for final adoption and implementation. At that time, a timetable for putting the program in action will also be provided.
The system will further evaluate the threshold for toys to enter US market. Its objective is to enhance both the reality and the public’s confidence that toys sold in the U.S. market are safe. The proposed new program prescribes procedures and provides audit mechanisms for design hazard analysis, auditing manufacturing process controls, and product safety testing. █
