8、1:2018 ENational forewordThis British Standard is the UK implementation of EN 16781:2018. It supersedes BS 8510:2009, which is withdrawn.BSI, as a member of CEN, is obliged to publish EN 16781:2018 as a British Standard. However, attention is drawn to the fact that during the development of this Eur

9、opean Standard, the UK committee voted against its approval for the following reason:While the neck opening dimensions are the same as BS 8510:2009, BS 8510:2009 also states that it “specifies requirements for the safety of sleep bags for the use of children with a minimum weight of 4 kg“. This text

10、 is absent from EN 16781:2018. The UK is concerned that the minimum neck opening may be too large for the smallest babies. Although UK submitted comments on this, this was not accepted.In all other respects the UK Committee supports the requirements of EN 16781.The UK participation in its preparatio

29、018) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 248 “Textiles and textile products”, the secretariat of which is held by BSI. 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 February 2019, an

30、d conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by February 2019. 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 has

31、 been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association. Following the publication and implementation of this document in CEN member countries, it has been agreed by CEN TC 248 that there should be an 18 month transition period from the date of

32、availability to allow manufacturers to develop and produce garments that conform to the standard. This period is also to allow the supply chain, from manufacturer through to the consumer, to be cleared of non-conforming childrens sleep bags for use in a cot. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Reg

33、ulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland,

34、Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.

35、e safety in the Directorate-General Health and Consumers, under the title “Standardisation mandate to CEN, CENELEC and ETSI on the safety of child-care articles; Cluster 2- risks in the sleeping environment; Mattresses for cots, cot bumpers, suspended beds for children, duvets for children, sleep ba

36、gs for children”, issued on 2011-10-20 and accepted by CEN BT on 2011-12-20, requested that CEN develop standards or specifications including safety requirements and test methods, warnings and instructions to adult users in order to address the possible hazard posed by these products. The aim of thi

37、s European Standard is to minimize the main risks posed by products in the sleep environment of babies and young children, such as: internal asphyxiation (choking); entrapment; hyperthermia (overheating); strangulation; external asphyxiation (suffocation); flammability; injuries due to falls; injuri

38、es due to ingestion of small parts; injuries due to chemicals. For the development of this document, attention was paid to: the childs stages of development (age, height, weight, ability, etc.). Sleep bags were studied in relation to children up to 3 years of age. the intended or foreseeable use of

39、the product, bearing in mind a childs behaviour. Such behaviour exposes children to injury in ways that differ from those of adults, making children a particularly vulnerable group in society; the hazard presented by the product in the circumstances under which the product and the child come into co

40、ntact with each other. IMPORTANT In order to comply with the essential safety requirements, this document is hazard based. As this document only deals with a particular textile child-care article, i.e. childrens sleep bags, design characteristics have been specified only when necessary in order to i

41、ntroduce inherently safe design. These characteristics have been specified in a manner which allows compliance to be checked by interested parties, from designers to market surveillance authority officers. BS EN 16781:2018EN 16781:2018 (E) 6 1 Scope This document specifies requirements for the safet

42、y of childrens sleep bags which are used in the childrens sleeping environment (i.e. not under supervision), and designed to provide sufficient warmth so as to remove the need for additional bedding when sleeping in a cot or similar product (e.g. crib/cradle) in which a child is contained. It is app

43、licable to products for use by younger children based on the ability of the children to not being able to climb out of the cot (approximately under the age of 24 months). NOTE The informative Annex D lists topics of further investigations, which might lead to necessary improvement of the safety requ

44、irements of childrens sleep bags. This document does not apply to products designed for use during the care of premature children or children of low birthweight or for outdoor use or to products designed to keep a child warm in a pushchair or car seats (e.g. foot muff). If a part of the childrens sl

45、eep bag is designed to offer additional function (e.g. play function), this part will, in addition to the following requirements, be subjected to safety requirements related to relevant standards (see A.1). 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that
