Projectile Toys Compliance

A projectile toy is a type of toy that can launch objects like darts or foam bullets at high speed, such as toy guns and bow and arrow sets. These toys must comply with various safety regulations to be sold in the EU, including the EU Toy Safety Directive 2009/48/EC, and standards like EN 71-1 (Mechanical and Physical Properties), EN 71-2 (Flammability), and EN 71-3 (Migration of Certain Elements).

Compliance requires:

• Safety Warnings: Cautionary statements must be displayed on the product detail page.
• Documentation: Test reports from accredited laboratories and a Declaration of Conformity (DoC) must be submitted, indicating compliance with safety standards. The DoC should have the responsible person’s details.
• Identification: The product must display relevant identification numbers and the CE or UKCA mark.

These requirements ensure that projectile toys meet safety and quality standards before reaching consumers.
