Toy & Nursery Products

Safety and compliance

Toy and nursery product safety and quality are extremely important in the case of children, where no compromise can be made on the implementation of strict standards. The rules and regulations keep on changing, and thus manufacturers, importers, and testing laboratories have to exhibit sustained compliance with the international safety levels.

Mechanical testing is important in the verification of the reliability of the product. Components are put under controlled tensile and compressive forces and, along with torque, to ensure compatibility of the parts to withstand real-life use, and still, they remain structurally sound. This would aid in predetermining the possible areas where the products can be weak, and the risk will be lessened, making the children's products safe in their daily usage.

Presto Stantest also supplies a broad line of force and torque testing tools that meet the special needs of the toy and nursery industry. We can use a wide range of grips, fixtures, and adaptors that will fit into our systems and allow the safe and accurate positioning of objects in the course of tests. This will guarantee accuracy, repeatability, and standardization of each measurement to industry standards.

India and the global markets are major customers of our solutions that help in meeting some of the most important rules, including EN71-1, ASTM F963, and ISO 8124-1. The tools will give the flexibility required to be able to assess a wide range of products, such as soft toys, rigid toys, feeding accessories, infant-friendly furniture, and nursery equipment. Among the most popular tests are pull-off strength of fasteners, torque resistance of rotating objects, compression tests of structural objects, and analysis of stress of attachments and connectors.

In addition to safety compliance, Presto Stantest systems also introduce actionable information to the R&D and quality assurance teams through which manufacturers may optimize materials, augment product design, and have their performance remain consistent across production batches. This is due to the rigidity of the hardware together with smart software control; both functions help to conduct detailed force/displacement versus rotation and torque/rotation analysis that promotes traceable, reproducible results that may be used during audits and submission of regulatory documents.

Presto Stantest is a company that provides strong, adaptable, and affordable mechanical testing solutions to the toy and nursery industry with its more than 42 years of experience. Our systems assist businesses in having the confidence to attain international safety requirements, reduce risk, and maintain the quality of products while protecting the end-users of our products, who are children who use them on a daily basis.
