BS EN 862:2016EN 862:2016 (E) 4 Introduction Child

17、-resistant packaging is used to create a physical barrier between a child and a potentially hazardous product. Various types of packaging are recognized as being child-resistant, based on performance testing against standards for specific product categories and packaging types. Since this type of pa

18、ckaging was introduced, the incidence of accidental ingestion of potentially hazardous products by children under 5 years old has fallen. The degree to which this is due to the use of child-resistant packaging as opposed to other factors, such as greater public awareness of the hazards, is not easil

19、y assessed, but there is little doubt that this packaging has made a positive contribution to the reduction. The use of child-resistant packaging needs to be confined to those products that are potentially hazardous, or for which any legislation makes its use mandatory, since, if used in other circu

20、mstances, there could be confusion over the degree of hazard posed by the product. In any case, proper labelling and information by the manufacturer is important for the safe use of the product in the home. Child-resistant packaging acts as the last line of defence if other barriers separating the c

21、hild and hazardous product have failed. However, it has to be recognized that it is unrealistic to expect that any functional packaging can be totally impossible for a child of 42 to 51 months inclusive to open and that child-resistant packaging cannot be a substitute for other safety precautions. T

22、here has been an increasing use of child-resistant packaging, therefore it is desirable to achieve agreement on testing procedures in order to avoid confusion and misunderstanding in an area of great importance to the safety of young children. This European Standard aims to reduce the number of chil

23、dren “exposed to training” during panel testing. Since the introduction of performance testing, much has been learned about the use of children for testing child-resistant packaging and attention has been focused on how the number of children involved may be reduced. Future development of standards

24、based on mechanical test methods is required to avoid unnecessary child panel testing and is essential in developing physical package attributes useable by manufacturers. Child-resistant packaging is only the last in a series of protective measures, and does not release parents or guardians from the

25、ir duty to keep potentially dangerous products out of the reach of children. The on-going development of non-reclosable packaging offers a significant area for innovation in packaging. The styles of non-reclosable packages can be wide-ranging in design. Mechanical test methods may be used to generat

26、e test data for comparison and demonstration that the notified packaging is as safe as the original reference one. Mechanical tests are test methods generating data by destructive or non destructive tests of a specific reference package having shown child-resistant properties. Consequently, the deve

27、lopment of mechanical test methods by manufacturers allied to current EN or national standards should be pursued as a means of reducing the reliance on child panel testing. 1 Scope This European Standard specifies performance requirements and methods of test for non-reclosable packaging that has bee

28、n designated child-resistant and which is intended to contain non-pharmaceutical products. This European standard is intended for type approval only (2.5) and is not intended for quality assurance purposes. BS EN 862:2016EN 862:2016 (E) 5 This European Standard applies to non-reclosable packages of

29、the single-use type consisting of one or more individual units. Non-reclosable packages for pharmaceutical products are excluded from the scope of this European standard. These are the subject of a separate standard, EN 14375, Child-resistant non-reclosable packaging for pharmaceutical products - Re

30、quirements and testing. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 child-resistant package package which is difficult for young children to open (or gain access to the contents), but which it is possible for adults to use properly 2.2 no

31、n-reclosable child-resistant package child-resistant package or part of a child-resistant package which, when all or part of the contents have been removed, cannot be properly closed again 2.3 substitute product inert substitute resembling the product it replaces EXAMPLE Powder, tablets or liquids (

32、uncoloured water), etc. 2.4 unit discrete quantity of any product to be removed from its immediate packaging in its entirety 2.5 type approval procedure to certify as child-resistant a specific type of non-reclosable package, formed from a specified set of materials, which has met the requirements o

33、f this European standard 2.6 single use package package of one or several units which are not only individually protected but also individually packed for single use 3 Requirements 3.1 General requirements A non-reclosable child-resistant package, when tested in accordance with the requirements of t

34、his European Standard, shall be capable of providing a satisfactory degree of resistance to opening by children (3.2.1). Accessibility to its contents by adults can be checked according to the optional adult test (3.2.2). A non-reclosable child-resistant package, in addition to conforming to the per

35、formance requirements specified in this European Standard (3.2), shall be appropriate for the contents, provide mechanical protection and function properly for the life of the content and packaging. BS EN 862:2016EN 862:2016 (E) 6 Manufacturers, component manufacturers, fillers and packers of such p

36、ackages shall initiate and operate procedures to control the quality of packaging materials so that type approved packaging is in accordance with the requirements of this European Standard. NOTE EN ISO 9001 specifies requirements for quality management systems where organizations need to demonstrate

37、 their capability of supplying conforming products to customers. 3.2 Performance requirements 3.2.1 Child test An individual child test shall be considered a failure in relation to a single use package if within 10 min, or 5 min when no demonstration has been given, the child gains access to one or

38、more units from the packaging provided. When tested in accordance with 4.3.2 and evaluated in accordance with 4.4.1, the packaging shall be child-resistant. 3.2.2 Adult test This test is optional unless a tool is supplied to open the container at the point of sale. When tested in accordance with 4.3

39、.3 and evaluated in accordance with 4.4.2, at least 90 % of the adults shall be able to access at least 1 unit within the 1 min test period, without a demonstration. To minimize the exposure of children to unnecessary testing, the adult test should be carried out before the child test. 4 Testing 4.1

40、 Principle Type approval for non-reclosable child-resistant packaging is obtained by a sequential test method for children. A test group of up to 200 children aged 42 to 51 months is divided into pairs. Each child is given a number of non-reclosable packages to be opened by whatever means they wish

41、to use. If a child fails to gain access within 5 min, the method of opening is demonstrated by the supervisor and the child is given a further 5 min to open the package. The results are recorded sequentially, as obtained. The package is deemed child-resistant if the trail of results on the test char

42、ts passes into the acceptance zone or if at least 80 % of the children are unable to access one or more units within 10 min and at least 85 % of the children are unable to access one or more units within the first 5 min. The packages accessibility may also be assessed by an optional full panel test

43、for adults using a test group of 100 adults. Each adult is given a non-reclosable package, any associated opening tools and written instructions, and is allowed 5 min to familiarise themselves with the packaging. The number of adults opening the package within a 1 min test period is recorded. The pa

44、ckage is deemed to comply with the requirements of this European Standard if at least 90 % of the adults are able to access at least 1 unit in 1 min. 4.2 Samples and sample preparation Sufficient packages shall be produced by the proposed manufacturing process to enable a representative sample to be

45、 selected by the supervisor for testing and to provide a reserve for reference purposes. Dangerous products shall not be used to fill the package to be tested; an appropriate substitute product shall be used. The material and design of the test samples shall conform to the technical specification an

46、d they shall be representative of an average batch of original packages. Packages for the child panel test shall be unprinted. In every test, a new package shall be provided for each member of the test group. BS EN 862:2016EN 862:2016 (E) 7 Each sample package shall be checked for integrity before t

47、he test is conducted. The packages shall be presented to the children without the outer retail packaging, giving them access to the individual units. 4.3 Procedure 4.3.1 General The test procedure is carried out in two stages: a) child test (4.3.2);b) adult test (4.3.3).4.3.2 Child test 4.3.2.1 Comp

48、osition of child test group The test group shall comprise no more than 200 children aged 42 to 51 months, inclusive, with approximately equal numbers of girls and boys. As far as possible, there shall be an even distribution of ages and sexes within the panel. The children shall be selected at rando

49、m and shall have no apparent physical or mental disability that might affect manual dexterity. They shall not have taken part in more than one previous test and, in that test, a packaging of a different type and design shall have been used. If a child is used for more than one test, there shall be at least 4 weeks between tests. Parental or guardian consent shall be obtained before the child is used as a part of the test group. Any children having been involved in a reported poisoning accident shall be excluded from the test. Children should be selected to represent,
