This European Standard applies to olfactory board games, cosmetic kits, gustative games and supplementary sets. It specifies requirements on the use of substances and mixtures and in some cases on their amount and concentration in olfactory board games, cosmetic kits, gustative games and supplementary sets to such games or kits.

These substances and mixtures are:

  • those classified as dangerous by the EC-legislation applying to dangerous substances [15, 16], and dangerous mixtures [17];

  • substances and mixtures which in excessive amounts could harm the health of the children using them and which are not classified as dangerous by the above mentioned legislation; and

  • any other chemical substance(s) and mixture(s) delivered with the set.

Furthermore, this European Standard specifies allergenic fragrances which are prohibited in toys, marking requirements, in particular regarding allergenic fragrances, and requirements on a contents list, instructions for use, the equipment intended to be used during the activity and the use of highly flammable liquids.

This European Standard does not apply to cosmetic toys such as play cosmetics for dolls.

NOTE The terms ā€œsubstanceā€ and ā€œmixtureā€ are defined in the REACH regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 [18] and in the CLP regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 [16].
