[China Packaging News] children's printed toys are popular with parents and children because they are light and conducive to intellectual development, but does the environmental protection quality of children's printed toys pass? Recently, the Jiangsu provincial quality and Technical Supervision Bureau commissioned the Jiangsu provincial quality and Technical Supervision Bureau to carry out environmental protection quality risk monitoring of children's printed toys
according to the Jiangsu Provincial Bureau of quality supervision, the children's printing toys monitored this time include four types: jigsaw puzzles, stickers, origami, and three-dimensional handicrafts. The production enterprises involve 14 publishing units in Beijing, Hubei, Shanghai and other regions. The test results showed that among the 15 batches of samples tested, one batch of ethylbenzene and xylene did not meet the requirements, and one batch (purchased on tmall e-commerce platform) was confirmed as pirated products by the nominal manufacturer. The overall compliance rate was 86.7%. From the monitoring results, the environmental protection quality of children's printed toys is generally good, but there are still some potential safety hazards
children's printed toys are mainly paper printed toys, such as paper children's jigsaw puzzles, children's origami books, children's Sticker Books, etc., which are mostly printed by lithography. Children may have close contact with children's printed toys through touching, rubbing, licking and sucking of giant BASF, which is the world's leading supplier of high-performance materials with leading technology and output. Therefore, the society pays high attention to its safety and environmental protection. At present, green printing has not been enforced for children's printed toys, and the main problem is that benzene homologues exceed the requirements of relevant standards
it is reported that among the four types of children's printed toys monitored, a batch of jigsaw puzzles, ethylbenzene and xylene, did not meet the test basis standards. In contrast to the three batches of non-conforming printing toys monitored in 2014, although the production enterprises (publishing units) are different, the printing and processing enterprises in this batch are the same (Wuhan jinglunda Printing Co., Ltd.) as the printing and processing enterprises in the three batches of non-conforming printing toys monitored in 2014, and the matrix of the over standard improvement has a large degree of infiltration of filler
in order to maximize profits, some enterprises may use raw and auxiliary materials that do not meet the requirements of green printing, such as inks, varnishes, adhesives, etc., and their own content of ethylbenzene and xylene is high. There are also some problems such as backward enterprise management, weak awareness of environmental protection and quality, and lack of raw material inspection, resulting in excessive residues of ethylbenzene and xylene in products. Introduction to the staff of the Provincial Bureau of quality supervision
although there are no nonconformities in the heavy metal project of children's printed toys in this sampling inspection, it is worth noting that the content of transportable chromium in the tested batch of paper toy parts greatly exceeds the limit of chromium in various foods
the high content of transportable chromium may be mainly due to the large amount of such substances in the ink or adhesive raw materials used in the products. Although children's printed toys cannot be equated with food, children's long-term exposure to toys with high chromium content or biting the parts will cause certain harm to their bodies. Introduction to the staff of the Provincial Bureau of quality supervision
experts suggest that manufacturers (Publishers) should take the initiative to pay attention to the environmental protection quality of their products from the perspective of protecting the health of children, choose printing enterprises that have obtained the certification qualification of environmental labeling products, or require in the printing contract to implement the standard of technical requirements for printing of environmental labeling products Part I: lithography (HJ), and supervise and verify the environmental protection quality of products to obtain market share with quality. In addition, when purchasing products, the distribution unit should try to choose products with China environmental mark (ten ring mark) or products with environmental quality declaration. The e-commerce platform should have a corresponding supervision mechanism for the quality of the products distributed by the settled merchants, including whether the products are environmental friendly, whether they are genuine products, etc
the staff of the Provincial Bureau of Quality Supervision said that consumers have also made significant progress in buying children's printing machines. When brushing toys, they should check whether the information of product packaging, publishing enterprises, printing enterprises and so on is complete, and try to choose large physical bookstores or self-supporting products of major e-commerce platforms. Before use, you should smell and put it away, and smell whether the product has obvious irritating smell. If yes, it may be that the content of toxic and harmful gases is high. It should be placed in a ventilated place until the odor is significantly reduced or there is no odor; If the smell is still strong, it should be stopped or discarded
experts suggest that parents should remind their children not to bite when using children's printed toys, and remember to wash their hands after use. Children must be warned not to bite toy parts when using toys, and develop the good habit of washing hands before eating after using toys, so as to avoid ingesting toxic and harmful substances that may be transferred to their hands when eating, which will endanger their health
