ISO 17351 Braille Labeling for Accessible Packaging Test

The ISO 17351 standard ensures that braille labeling on packaging is accessible to the visually impaired, promoting inclusivity and safety in the toy industry. This service focuses on testing whether the braille labels meet the stringent requirements set by this international standard.

ISO 17351 requires that all important information about a product be presented in braille, ensuring that visually impaired individuals can read it without assistance. The standard covers various aspects of braille labeling, including font size, spacing between characters, and tactile quality. Proper implementation is essential to ensure the labels are legible under different conditions.

Our service involves several steps: first, we prepare a sample package according to the requirements specified in ISO 17351. This includes ensuring that the braille label meets the size and spacing criteria set by the standard. Once the package is prepared, it undergoes rigorous testing using tactile inspection tools designed specifically for this purpose.

The testing process checks several key parameters: font size, character height, letter depth, and overall clarity of the braille characters. These tests are crucial to ensure that visually impaired individuals can read the labels accurately. Additionally, our service includes environmental stress testing, which simulates real-world conditions such as temperature changes, humidity levels, and exposure to sunlight.

Our state-of-the-art facilities use specialized equipment to perform these tests. Our technicians have extensive experience in conducting ISO 17351-compliant tests and are well-versed in the nuances of this standard. They can provide detailed insights into any discrepancies found during testing, offering solutions for improvement.

The importance of ISO 17351 cannot be overstated, especially given the diverse needs of visually impaired consumers. By ensuring compliance with this standard, toy manufacturers demonstrate their commitment to inclusivity and safety. Our service not only helps toys meet regulatory requirements but also enhances brand reputation by showcasing a dedication to accessibility.

Compliance with ISO 17351 is critical for brands aiming to reach a broad audience, including those who rely on braille labels for product information. This standard ensures that all necessary details are presented in an accessible manner, fostering trust and confidence among consumers.

In conclusion, our ISO 17351 Braille Labeling for Accessible Packaging Test service plays a pivotal role in promoting inclusivity and safety within the toy industry. By adhering to this international standard, manufacturers can ensure that their products are accessible to all users, including those with visual impairments.
