Watching brief priorities

Consumers need to be vigilant and to monitor mature consumer standards to ensure they keep up with the needs of a changing world and developing technologies. COPOLCO monitors work on:

• Safety and performance of household appliances, especially electrical goods

• Produits liés aux enfants – équipements pour terrains de jeux, véhicules routiers, emballages à l’épreuve des enfants, stabilité de l’ameublement, sécurité des jouets.

• Graphical symbols

• Image safety - dealing with physiological or psychological hazards, especially to children, caused by watching flashing or rapidly moving images.
