Foreword
This European Standard (EN 71-10:2005) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 52 “Safety of
Toys”, the secretariat of which is held by DS.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by June 2006, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at
the latest by June 2006.
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission
and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).
For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this European
Standard.
This European Standard constitutes part 10 of the European Standard on Safety of Toys.
This part should be read in conjunction with parts 9 and 11.
This European Standard defines the sample preparation and extraction procedures used to address potential
exposure to organic compounds from ingestion, mouthing, inhalation, skin contact with solids and skin and
eye contact with liquids.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic,
Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania,
Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland
and United Kingdom.
Introduction
The European Standard EN 71 for safety of toys consists of the following parts:
Part 1: Mechanical and physical properties
Part 2: Flammability
Part 3: Migration of certain elements
Part 4: Experimental sets for chemistry and related activities
Part 5: Chemical toys (sets) other than experimental sets
Part 6: Graphical symbols for age warning labelling
Part 7: Finger paints – Requirements and test methods
Part 8: Swings, slides and similar activity toys for indoor and outdoor family domestic use
Part 9: Organic chemical compounds – Requirements
Part 10: Organic chemical compounds – Sample preparation and extraction
Part 11: Organic chemical compounds – Methods of analysis
The standards EN 71-9, EN 71-10 and EN 71-11 were mandated by the European Commission (M/229) to
address the risks presented by organic compounds in toys by taking into account the potential exposure and
toxicological effects of those substances considered to present the greatest risk to health.
This European Standard specifies the procedures for preparing and extracting samples of toy materials prior
to analysis by the methods described in EN 71-11.
This part should be read in conjunction with EN 71-9, which contains requirements for certain organic
compounds in toys, and EN 71-11, which specifies methods of analysis.
This European Standard takes into account the opinion of the Toxicology Section of the Scientific Advisory
Committee published in 1992 (EUR 13976), which recommended that certain groups of chemical compounds
used in toys and toy materials need to be given special attention. In drafting this European Standard CEN/TC
52 has considered organic chemicals that can be classified within the following groups:
Solvents
Preservatives
Plasticisers (excluding phthalate plasticisers)
Flame retardants
Monomers
Biocides (wood preservatives)
Processing aids
Colouring agents
During the development of this European Standard, CEN/TC 52 has considered the requirements set out in
Council Directive 82/711/EEC as amended and its supporting standards.
Phthalate plasticisers were specifically excluded from the scope of mandate M/229.
1 Scope

3.5 (see B.4)
laboratory sample
single toy in the form in which it is marketed or intended to be marketed
3.6

action of the mouth after inflation
NOTE Toy whistles, toy imitation novelty teeth are examples of mouth-actuated toys
3.7 (see B.5)
mouthed
licked, sucked and chewed
3.8
paper
material, marketed as either paper or card, with a maximum mass per unit area of 400 g/m

4 Requirements (see B.6)
Toys, toy components and toy materials specified in columns 1 and 2 of Table 1 shall be sampled and
analysed in accordance with Clause 5 and the clauses of this European Standard specified in columns 3 to 12
of Table 1.
If a clause number relating to a first-action method is given in Table 1 for a particular toy / toy component and
toy material, compliance with EN 71-9 may be shown by the analysis of the toy material by that method alone
for the relevant group of organic compounds. A first-action method shall not be used to show non-compliance
with the requirements of EN 71-9.
