26、tion by children of products used about the home is reported to the medical profession each year. Most are not serious and those that are associated with more serious side effects involve products known to be hazardous, e.g. certain medicinal products, liquid fuels and solvents, strongly acid or alk
27、aline preparations and some garden products. Most commonly used household detergents, cleaning agents and maintenance and care products are not known to have caused injury. However, whether ingestion (actual or suspected) causes injuries or not, such incidents can have traumatic effects on both the
28、child and its parents.The use of potentially hazardous agents in certain products is necessary to achieve effectiveness; consequently steps have to be taken to limit the occurrence of accidents. One approach has been to try to increase general awareness of hazards associated with various products. N
29、evertheless, proper labelling and information by the manufacturer is important for the safe use of products in the home.Another approach has been the use of child resistant packaging to put a physical barrier between the child and the hazardous product. Such packaging should only be used for product
30、s as mentioned above since, if used in other circumstances, it could lead to confusion among consumers. It is important to recognize that it is unrealistic to expect that any functional packaging can be totally impossible for a child to open and this type of packaging cannot be a substitute for norm
31、al safety precautions. The packaging functions as a last defence if other barriers separating children and hazardous products have failed. Hence, the overall responsibility rests with the parents or other responsible adults.The aim of this International Standard is to establish mechanical test metho
32、ds to safeguard child resistance properties of the packaging system.According to ISO 8317, the panel test is intended for initial type approval but it does not sufficiently cover change management.NOTE Change management covers, but is not limited to, for example, change of supplier, packaging materi
33、al, component manufacturing site, material brand or scale up.Those changes need to be assessed using risk management procedures. Mechanical test methods deliver scientific data which introduce a more scientific means of ensuring compliance with the originally type tested package. The test results ar
34、e essential for an appropriate risk assessment.The object of this International Standard is to permit the comparison, by mechanical testing, of the physical parameters of the packaging system under test with those of the individual units tested for certification purposes. It is the responsibility of
35、 the component manufacturer to provide access to test methods and test data to the customer.4DIN EN ISO 13127:2013-03 EN ISO 13127:2012 + AC:2012 (E) 1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies test methods for mechanical testing of reclosable child resistant packaging. The data generated by these
36、mechanical test methods are suitable for comparing child resistant characteristics of related reclosable packaging systems.This International Standard is not intended for routine quality assurance purposes.NOTE The use of children and adults for testing in accordance with ISO 8317 is an essential fe

45、International Standard.4 General requirements4.1 RationaleThis International Standard is intended to be used to generate mechanical test data from reclosable child resistant packaging systems. These data may be used for the verification of equivalency of a child resistant packaging system to a type-
46、approved package (e.g. in the course of change management) and aims to avoid unnecessary panel tests.4.2 Reference dataReference data shall be generated from type-approved packages using the testing methods specific to the packaging type as given in Clause 6. Reference data should preferably be gene
47、rated on the same package lot(s) as used for type approval testing to ISO 8317. Where this is not possible, reference data may be generated on an alternative lot, or lots, of the package, providing that the package lot is identical in design, construction and specification to the type-approved packa
48、ge.The identified test methods used to generate data from packages submitted for testing to ISO 8317, or from packages fulfilling the specification, shall be used to set the test parameters for the range of packaging covered by the original certification. Specifications with appropriate tolerances for the specific packaging shall be defined when generating reference data.4.3 Package modificationsISO 8317 establishes that mechanical testing may be used to confirm the continued compliance of child res
