Kua Tāpirihia e te EU ētahi Paerewa EN 71 Hou e Toru ki te Rārangi Whakakotahi — Ngā Mea Me Mōhio Ngā Kaihoko Taonga Tākaro

I runga 14 o Hepetema 2026, i whakaputaina e te Komihana o Ūropi Whakatau Whakatinanatanga (EU) 2026/2032, e whakarerekē ana i te Whakataunga Whakatinana (EU) 2023/740 mō ngā paerewa kua whakatauritea hei tautoko i te Aratohu Haumaru Taonga Tākaro. E tāpirihia ana e te whakataunga ētahi paerewa EN 71 kua whakahoutia e toru ki te rārangi o ngā paerewa kua whakatauritea i raro i Te Aratohu Haumaru Taonga Tākaro 2009/48/EC.

Mai i te 14 o Hepetema 2026, ka whai mana ngā paerewa e toru i raro nei, ā, e mau ana te whakaaro o te tutuki i ngā whakaritenga — arā, ko ngā hua e aromatawaitia ana i runga i aua paerewa ka kiia kua tutuki i a rātou ngā whakaritenga haumaru matua o te Aratohu.

Ngā mea e hipokina ana e ia o ngā paerewa hou e toru

E arotahi ana ngā paerewa e toru kua tāpirihia ki te rārangi ki ngā mōrearea motuhake e toru e pā ana ki ngā taonga takaro.

EN 71‑4:2020+A1:2025 — Matū me ngā huinga mahi e pā ana

E pā ana tēnei wāhanga ki ngā "huinga whakamātautau mō te matū me ngā mahi e pā ana" — te momo kete pūtaiao a ngā tamariki e kitea ana i roto i ngā akomanga me ngā kāinga. E whakamārama ana i ngā matū ka taea te whakamahi i roto i aua kete, ō rātou awhe kukū e whakaaetia ana, me ngā whakaritenga haumaru mō te whakahaere i aua mea, e ārai ana i ngā tamariki kei pā atu ki ngā matū kino i te wā e whakamātautau ana. Ka whakaoho ake ēnei taonga tākaro i te hiahia engari he mōrearea kei roto i a rātou te tūponotanga o te whakaaturanga matū, koia te take e noho tonu ai rātou hei arotahi mā te tirotiro ture.

EN 71‑15:2025 — Formamide i roto i ngā rauemi taonga takaro pahuka

Ko te formamide i roto i ngā rauemi pahuka e arohia ana e tēnei wāhanga, e kitea whānuitia ana i roto i ngā hua pēnei i ngā whāriki tākaro me ngā poraka hanga ngohengohe. Ko te formamide he matū ka noho tonu hei toenga mai i te hanga o aua rauemi, ā, ka tukuna mārire pea i ētahi pāmahana — he pūtake mōrearea "e kore e kitea engari kei te noho tonu."

EN 71‑16:2025 — Ngā ārai mura o te ūkuikui kua whakamāotaotia

E pā ana tēnei wāhanga ki ngā matū ārai mura kua whakakīia ki te hauota me te whākawa i roto i ngā rauemi takaro, inā koa ko te TCEP, te TCPP me te TDCP. I mua, i whakamahia whānuitia ēnei matū i roto i ngā kirihou me ngā pahuka hei ārai i te mura, engari kua whakaturetia inaianei nā te mea he tūponotanga kino pea ki te hauora.

Wā whakawhiti mō EN 71‑4:2020. Kāore te EN 71‑4:2020 kua whakakapia e tangohia tonutia. Ka whai mana te wā whakawhiti mō te 18 marama pea: Ka noho tonu te EN 71‑4:2020 ki te rārangi whakakotahi tae noa ki te 14 o Poutū-te-rangi 2028. I te wā whakawhiti, ka taea tonu e ngā kaihanga te whakamahi i te putanga tawhito mō te aromatawai i te tutukitanga - engari ina kati te matapihi, kāore te paerewa tawhito e tautoko i te whakaaro tutukitanga. E tohutohuhia ana ngā pakihi mekameka tuku kia tīmata wawe te whakamātautau me te aromatawai ki ngā putanga hou.

He tirohanga poto ki ngā rā matua

I tēnei rā, ko te rārangi o ngā paerewa kua whakatauritea i raro i te EU Toy Safety Directive e whai ake nei:

Ngā taunakitanga mō ngā kaihoko me ngā kaihanga

Ka tūtohu mātou kia tere tonu te mahi a ngā pakihi taonga tākaro i ēnei mahi e whai ake nei:

• Manatokohia ko ēhea putanga EN 71 e pā ana ki ō hua, me te aro nui ki te whakamātautau matū o te EN 71‑15 (formamide i roto i ngā rauemi pahuka) me te EN 71‑16 (ngā ārai mura phosphorous kua whakakīia ki te chlorine).
• Whakaotia te whakawhiti putanga mai i te EN 71‑4:2020 ki te EN 71‑4:2020+A1:2025 i mua noa atu i te rā kati o te 14 o Poutū-te-rangi 2028.

I te aroaro o ngā whakahoutanga paerewa taonga takaro a te EU, me karo ngā kamupene i te tūnga "tatari-mō-te-tirotiro-kātahi-te-whakatika". Engari, hangaia he tikanga aroturuki paerewa auau:

1. Me whakarite kia pumau ngā arowhai rārangi-paerewa kua whakatauritea. Aroturuki i ngā pānuitanga ā-ture me te matapaki i ngā mahi, kaua e whakawhirinaki ki ngā kōrero tuarua mai i ō hoa mahi hei ako i ngā huringa ture.
2. Arotake i ngā rauemi me te hanganga o mua. He maha ngā wā ka kawea mai e ngā paerewa hou he rohe hou me ngā tikanga whakamātautau; ko te tutuki i ngā rauemi mata o te awa te mea tika hei whakatau mēnā ka eke te hua kua oti. Mā te tātaritanga wawe ka whakaitihia ngā utu mahi anō i muri mai.
3. Kia tika te whakahaere i te wā whakawhiti — kaua e rite ki te ārai i te whakaroa. Ko te wāhanga tawhito/hou rite tonu te matapihi koura mō te tirotiro me te whakatikatika hua. Mēnā ka tatari kia tangohia te paerewa tawhito hei tīmata i ngā whakatikatika, ka tūpono te mahi tere me te pupuri i ngā taonga ki te tauranga.

Whakakape: Ko ngā whakaritenga motuhake mō te tutuki i ngā whakaritenga kei raro i ngā whakaputanga hou a te EU me ngā whakaaro o ngā rōpū whakamōhio. Hei mōhiohio whānui tēnei tuhinga, ehara i te tohutohu ture, tohutohu aromatawai rānei mō te tutuki i ngā whakaritenga.
