Abstract

This European Standard specifies the requirements and test methods for non-reclosable childresistant packages designated as resistant to opening by children. The standard applies to non-reclosable packages of the "single-use" type of one or several induvidual units. Non-reclosable packages for pharmaceutical products are excluded. Acceptance criteria are given for the package when tested by specific methods. These methods do not only provide a measure of the effectiveness of the package but also cover the accessibility to the contents by adults. This European Standard is intended for type approval only (see 4.1) and is not intended for quality assurance purposes. NOTE: The term "non-reclosable child-resistant package" covers not only packages where the seal is provided by a system to prevent access by young children, designed for that purpose (for example, a package comprising separate compartments and including a supporting medium, pre-formed or not, which contains the product, along with a film material which constitutes the closure) but also those packages where there is no specific method of opening (for example, completely sealed sachets, etc.).
