EU toys restrict the use of bisphenol A and flame retardants in toys extended nickel exemption range 2014-9-3 17:25:09 views: 25 The European Commission recently voted on toy safety and favoured restricting the use of bisphenol A and 3 flame retardants in toys. The Commission also agreed to exempt the use of nickel (a carcinogenic, mutagenic or reproductive toxic substance) in toy parts used for electrical conductivity. After a review by the European Parliament and the Council, these measures will have a transitional period before they are formally implemented. Since the European Parliament and the Council are in the process of control, the date of publication and commencement of these measures is unknown. We have informed you in August 2013 that the European Commission (EC) has communicated to the World Trade Organization (WTO) that it has formulated the inclusion of bisphenol A and 3 flame retardants in the Toy Safety Directive 2009/48/ec. On February 18, 2014, the EU Security Council voted on toy Safety Directive 2009/48/EC (TSD) and supported the adoption of 3 measures to revise the TSD directive. These 3 measures were: 1. Restrictions on the transfer of Bisphenol A (cas80-05-7) in toys have a migration limit of 0.1mg/l, which is the same as the limits of en 71-9 regulations. 2. Limit 3 kinds of flame retardants. Phosphoric acid tris (2-chloroethyl) ester (TCEP) (CAS No 115-96-8). Phosphoric acid tris (2-chloroethyl) ester (tcpp) (CAS 13674-84-5). Phosphoric acid tris (two-chloro-isopropyl) ester (TDCP) (CAS 13674-87-8) 3. Extend the exemption range of nickel to electrically conductive toy parts. The above-mentioned 3 measures will take effect after formal adoption by the European Parliament and Council and published in the Official Gazette of the European Union (OJEU). Table 1 summarizes the key elements of these 3 measures.
