Inspection And Quarantine Bureau: Toys Used Carefully For Export To European Union

The European Union formally implemented the directive on o-phthalate two in January 16, 2007 (the European Parliament and the directorate 2005/84/EC directive).

According to the instructions, two hexyl phthalate (DEHP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP), and o-phenyl two formic acid butyl ester (BBP) will be restricted to all plastic materials used for toys and children's products. While two, two, two, two, two, two, two, DIDP, and DNOP can be restricted to plastic materials used in toys and children's products that can be put into the mouth.

The European Commission on toxicology, biological toxicology and environment believes that plasticizers are harmful to children's health.

Artificial leather is required to use plasticizers in the production process. In recent years, although artificial leather manufacturers have strengthened their environmental protection requirements for raw and auxiliary materials, some manufacturers are using PLASTICIZERS CONTAINING o-benzoic acid two.

Because the proportion of single plush toy leather is very few, it is mostly used for decoration, and the batch usage is only tens of meters or even meters, and most of them are purchased by the market.

However, the quality of artificial leather purchased from market is not good and the potential risk is high. It is not ruled out that the use of phthalate two plasticizer.

To this end, the inspection and Quarantine Bureau reminded the relevant enterprises and business units that the production of plush toys exported to the EU should be careful with the use of artificial leather fabrics. We should strengthen the detection of the content of o-benzoic acid two, and ensure that the index is not exceeding the standard. At the same time, we should take corresponding measures in time to ensure the smooth export of raw materials and timely communication with the suppliers.
