It is recommended that manufacturers and suppliers operate to EN ISO 9001, the standard for quality management systems [1]. It is also recommended that laboratories operate to ISO/IEC 17025, General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories [4]. In addition, it is recognised that some organisations require reference testing. A suggested sampling plan and compliance levels for freshly manufactured soothers are provided in Annex E (informative). This procedure can be used as a voluntary type approval procedure. Latex protein allergy risk has not been included in this standard. Nevertheless, provision for packaging information for soothers containing natural rubber has been made in this standard. There is no published information that sensitisation is caused by soother teats. In addition, there is an extremely low incidence of latex protein allergy among young children and babies. However, the issue of subsequent allergic reaction from rubber teats will be reconsidered when further information becomes available. Phthalates have not been included in this standard because the use of phthalates in childcare articles is restricted by Annex XVII of REACH Regulation [5]. A normative annex has been included which contains translations of warning phrases into the main European languages. SIST EN 1400:2013
