<Live Webinar> EU Updates Age Labelling Guidelines for Toys

 

Abstract

Children learn important social and cultural roles through interaction with adults, peers, and the use of toys and props, which are important tools that support physical and cognitive growth.

In order to offer stimulating and appealing toys, manufacturers must take into consideration the development, interests, and social influences at various ages and stages of child growth for safe product use.  An accurate age grading evaluation will increase toy preference and safety for the child, and can help increase the brand loyalty of parents and children alike.

SGS Hong Kong is pleased to invite you to join our webinar on Tuesday, February 28th, 2023 where our experts will provide an in-depth analysis of EU's recent update of Guidance Document No. 11 and how it affects the interpretation and application of the Toy Safety Directive 2009/48/EC, helping stakeholders with the classification of toys intended for children under 36 months of age or of 36 months and over and ensuring your products meet regulatory requirements but also meet broader standards of age-appropriate safety and usability.
