Safety of Children’s clothing -“CORDS AND DRAWSTRINGS”- under review

The standard EN 14682 (“Safety of children's clothing – Cords and drawstrings on children's clothing – Specifications”) is currently under review.

The working review is still in the early stages and there is not a consolidated version of comments provided by participating members yet nor an expected date to vote a draft or final draft of the document.

Regarding EN 14682:2014, CEN/TR  17376:2019 was published last June providing guidance on the use of this standard (“Textiles - Safety of children's clothing - Guidance on the use of EN 14682:2014 Cords and drawstrings on children's clothing – Specifications”).
