Specifies requirements for reclosable and non-reclosable packages, designated as being resistant to opening by children. Intended to be particularly applicable to the packaging of chemicals where child-resistant packaging is required.

This Standard specifies requirements for reclosable (containers with closures) and non-reclosable packages, designated as being resistant to opening by children. It is intended to be particularly applicable to the packaging of chemicals, e.g. poisons, including medicines and toxic substances, where child-resistant packaging is required.NOTE: Packaging systems for chemicals, not intended for access by humans, are dealt with in another Standard.
