European foreword

This document (EN 14350:2020) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/

TC 252 “Child care

articles”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.

This

European

Standard

shall

be

given

the

status

of

a

national

standard,

either

by

publication

of

an

identical

text

or

by

endorsement,

at

the

latest

by

December 2020, and

conflicting

national

standards

shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2021.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

This document supersedes EN 14350-1:2004 and EN 14350-2:2004.

The main changes compared to the previous edition are listed below:

—

The standard has been completely renewed and a new structure was given. The former two parts

were

joined

together

into

one

standard.

A

whole

series

of

new

aspects

had

to

be

considered,

following changes in the market and the regulatory background.

—

Introduction: Completely reworded and references to European regulations were renewed.

—

Clause 3: Completely restructured and partly described in more detail. Definitions for completely

new parts were added.

—

Clause 4: Several completely new parts were added.

—

Clause 5: This clause is completely new.

—

Clause 6: This clause is completely new.

—

Clause

7:

The

whole

clause

has

been

divided

into

several

sub-paragraphs

for

individual

components of drinking equipment and the associated tests to improve the clarity of the sequence.

Several paragraphs for new items and their tests were added.

—

Clause

8:

This

clause

was

completely

restructured

and

subdivided.

The

requirements

and

test

conditions

have

been

set

with

the

consideration

of

the

likely

chemical

exposure:

food

contact,

mouthing or ingestion. Chemical requirements and test methods were set for materials (like rubber,

silicon,

TPE,

metal,

glass)

and

exposures

(mouthing

and

swallowing)

which

are

recently

not

covered

by

harmonised

legislations.

Requirements

for

substances

(e.g.

Phthalates

and

BPA)

covered by harmonised regulation (like REACH, (EU) 10/2011 or its amendments) have not been

included.

—

Clause 10: Revised and partly reworded.

—

Clause 11: This clause on Test report is completely new.

—

Annex A: This normative annex with translations of warnings into 24 languages is completely

n

ew.

—

Annex B: This informative annex with rationales is completely new.

BS EN 14350:2020

EN 14350:2020 (E)

—

Annex C: This informative annex on Method for the determination of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole

(MBT) and antioxidants specified in Table 7 was revised and enlarged.

—

Annex E: This informative annex on good practice for visibility and legibility is completely new.

This document has been prepared under a mandate M/264 given to CEN by the European Commission

and

the

European

Free

Trade

Association.

The

standard

is

developed

in

support

of

the

EU

Directive 2001/95/EC (GPSD).

According

to

the

CEN-CENELEC

Internal

Regulations,

the

national

organisations

of

the

following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia,

Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,

Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Republic of North

Macedonia,

Romania,

Serbia,

Introduction

This

document

harmonises

minimum

safety

requirements

and

test

methods

for

children’s

drinking

equipment.

Some

of

the

provisions

have

been

taken

from

other

existing

national

and

European

Standards and for these provisions the Technical Committee has relied on previous validation.

A significant choking hazard can arise if the component parts of drinking equipment become separated

during use. This hazard is addressed in this document by the inclusion of a security test. However, as

the

fixing

of

such

products

to

the

container

is

user-dependent,

the

risk

of

an

accident

cannot

be

completely

eliminated.

This

document

sets

out

labelling

requirements

stating

that

parents

or

carers

should not leave children unattended whilst being fed with a product containing a feeding teat or using

a container made of glass and that children should not be allowed to use feeding teats as a

s

oother.

The

Technical

Committee

considered

the

possibility

of

standardizing

both

sizes

of

feeding

teats

and

ranges

of

flow

rates.

However,

it

was

decided

that

the

many

combinations

of

container

systems

precluded

being

standardized.

It

is

recommended

that

all

container

and

drinking

accessory

combinations are matched components. Providing meaningful flow rate information is difficult because

of

several

factors

including

hole

diameter,

teat

thickness,

hole

shape/type

of

feed,

and

also

how

individual infants

suck

the

teat.

Accordingly, it

was

decided

not

to

include a

test for

flow

rate

but

to

recommend that manufacturers provide information on flow rate and hole size that is appropriate to

their particular product.

This document sets chemical requirements and test methods for materials (like rubber, silicon, TPE etc)

and

exposures

(mouthing

and

swallowing)

not

covered

by

harmonised

legislations.

Where

this

document

sets

migration

limits

for

substances

also

covered

by

legislation,

the

requirements

of

this

document with stated test conditions must be regarded as additional.

Materials and chemical risks included in the standard (Table 3) do not present a definitive list but the

considered opinion of the Technical Committee based on current knowledge of likely risks.

All food contact materials and articles are regulated by Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 [1], Regulation

(EC) No 2023/2006 [39] and relevant implementation measures, at European or national level.

All plastics components of drinking equipment intended to come into contact with food are specifically

regulated by the Regulation (EU) 10/2011 [2] on plastic materials and articles intended to come into

contact with food and its amendments.

Therefore, for example the Bisphenol A - requirement has not been included in this document. [40]

Phthalates in childcare articles are restricted by Annex XVII of the REACH Regulation [3] and have not

been included in this document.

Latex protein allergy risk has not been included in this document. There is no published information

that

sensitization is

caused

by

feeding

teats and

there is an

extremely

low

incidence

of

latex

protein

allergy among young children and babies. Nevertheless, provision for packaging information for feeding

teats made from natural rubber latex has been included in this document.

It

is

recommended

that

manufacturers

and

suppliers

operate

to

EN

ISO

9001

standard

for

quality

management

systems

[4].

It

is

also

recommended

that

laboratories

operate

to

EN

ISO/IEC

17025,

General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories [5].

This document does not include requirements for the cleanliness of ready to use and single use

products.

This document does not apply to products designed for specialist clinical medical applications, e.g.

those relating to cleft lip palates.

This document does not apply to drinking equipment made from ceramics.

This document does not apply to bags intended for storage only.

This document does not apply to drinking equipment which is supplied with fluids or food when

purchased and to feeding accessories fixed to it.

This document is not applicable to soothers. Safety requirements and test methods for soothers are

This document is not applicable for cutlery and other feeding utensils. Safety requirements and test

methods for Cutlery and other feeding equipment are specified in EN 14372 [7].

For drinking equipment excluded from the scope, consider the applicable requirements of this

document whenever possible.
