The Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced that the revised ASTM F963-11 standard, “Standard Consumer Safety Specifications for Toy Safety,” will become a mandatory consumer product safety standard effective June 12.
The previous version of this standard was established as a mandatory standard pursuant to the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008. The CPSC notes that because ASTM F963-11 does not reincorporate section 4.27 (toy chests) of ASTM F963-07, that provision remains in effect.
