Specifies requirements for immediate containers designated as being resistant to opening by children. Acceptance criteria in relation to resistance to children, acceptability by adults and seal integrity are given. Includes sequential procedures for panel testing using both adults and children, designed to allow conclusions to be reached with the fewest possible volunteers while retaining the possibilities associated with the use of full panels. The evaluation of a series of similar packages is outlined and a test for integrity of seal is described.

This standard specifies requirements for packages, both reclosable (containers with closures) and on-reclosable (strip and blister packages), designated as being resistant to opening by children. It is intended to be particularly applicable to the packaging of poisons, including medicinal poisons, where child-resistant packaging is required.For reclosable packages, the standard requires that panels of children and adults be given the packagesto open and the criteria for complying with the standard are expressed in terms of the minimum number of children in the children's panel that will successfully open the packages and the maximum number of adults that may fail to open the packages. For non-reclosable packages, the standard requires an examination of the materials of construction and the carrying out of tests for seal strength and seal integrity. Compliance is expressed in terms of the material requirements and maximum permissible leakage.
